That’s all I’m at liberty to say about *that* situation.

how to blog by tony pierce

Yes, absolutely, and fuck yeah I agree.

Except that post every day part.  I can’t even manage to eat or shower every day.

I talk to my friend Mikey via Skype every few weeks.  We always start the conversation the same way, “HI!  What have you been doing?!”  Despite the fact that I talk to him more then some of my in-town friends something about the distance, he’s in Kazakhstan, means he gets away with that question.  I always answer the question the same way, “Same old, work, study, drink, sleep.  Repeat.”  Even when I remind myself that next time I will say something different it always comes out the same.  Work.  Study.  Drink.  Sleep.  I suppose that I could add in I also eat a large quantity of wings and develop crushes on many inappropriate boys, but that’s just the spice of life.  You take that out and I’m still happy with what’s left.  There’s nothing about that rut that makes me worry.  I could sleep more and drink less, but that wouldn’t be any fun.  I could study more, and work less, but then I couldn’t afford any fun.  I seem to have reached some sort of rut-sweet-spot where until I’ve heard it fly out of my own mouth repeatedly I don’t realize I’m in it.

I like it.   A++ Would recommend.

1 - THE List is sadly out of date and needs a refresher.  But I already sleep 6 hours a night and my couch is feeling neglected so we’ll see when that occurs.  So much has been crossed off and so many more adventures have been dreamed up.  The fact that I have no memory of writing that last post is evidence of why I have to keep a list on the internet to keep my life moving forward.

2 - A friend reminded me today that NaBloPoMo is around the corner.  (For us November is around the corner because we are currently booking activities deep into October due to busy schedules.)  I shall be setting myself up to fail for the 4th year in a row!  Where’s the prize for that?!  The NaBloPoMo badge from last year is still up, THAT’S how on top of this I am.

3 - The syllabus for my Anthropology class has made it clear that quality writing in the form of essays will be expected.  I can’t even write on my own website about my own life!  Facebook status updates and Twitter have combined to pump my ADD to the max and make anything longer then 2 sentences feel like drudgery.  Yes, I went back to school.  Because clearly sleeping 6 hours a night and never having time to clean the bathroom demands more activities!
