the screen life


my life has become about staring into
a multitude of electronic screens.

let's count em up:
1. imac (apt) - 2-3 hours, various
2. imac (work) - 7 hours, mon-fri
3. macbook pro - 2-3 hours, weekends
4. nintendo ds (screen x 2) - varies
5. LG Vu Plus cell phone - 30 min, everyday
6. television (apt) - 30 min-1.5hr, most days
7. projector screen (screening room) - 1.5-2hrs, infrequently
8. kindle - growing amounts of time
9. ipod - 20-30min, everyday
---
(i'm still too scared to add up the total hours)

what happened to the carefree days when i
could sit outside and sketch in my notebook?
or read american psycho in a park?
or bike for hours and not feel guilty?
time to shift focus and reprioritize.

Get A Room!


i need a whistling expert for work!
i made up a fake profile for a speech pathologist
named Rebecca... so i guess it needs to be a woman.
it pays nothing, but your face will be seen by
80 million people each month (more like 10 people).


copying thousands of titles to an Excel sheet is considered Research.
Who'd a thunk it?!


my bestiality spam project is still sadly in the works.
i need to accomplish more personal tasks on the job.


translating 989 eHow titles from English to German is neither
mind-numbingly tedious nor impractical, right?


the Get A Room! ad on the left is too clever.

Ms. Gloom & Doom



lately i've felt insane.

change of weather brings change of mood,
and i go from laughing and smiling,
racing through the streets in the sun,
to panicked and moody and REALLY self-doubtful.
it's probably because...


  • it's the last stretch and thoughts of this year ending
    make me wonder what i have and will accomplish.
  • no matter what i eat or drink my stomach makes
    really uncomfortable noises at work.
  • being less avoidant means more interaction with people
    from the past means realizing inadequacies.
  • serious sleep deprivation and oncoming illness leads me to
    FEEL BAD AND OVERTHINK/SECOND GUESS EVERYTHING.

digo, katharine and murray are in FL for ultra right now
and i'm stuck in front of a computer for 80% of the day.
i would scream right now but i have zero privacy.
