Differences between human beings are minor...physical traits, religion, socioeconomic status.... these things are all so trivial when you think of the common threads that tie us all together. I'm of course talking about the inherent ability to take the most important items on a "To-Do List" and manage to put the most ridiculous shit ahead of them. Scheduled to perfom a heart transplant? Not before you see if Baskin-Robbins has hit the 32 mark. Need to pay a deliquent debt to say....the mafia? Right after you evaluate each submission on Rate-A-Buddy at AOL.com. Have a major midterm in 14 hours? Start a blog!
Every year...actually, every day...I make this pact with myself that I'm going to jump out of bed and start my era of productivity. I've successfully put that off for years. Tomorrow though....tomorrow's the day.
So I don't know what possessed me to start a blog. Will anyone really read this? How will anyone know it exists unless I tell them? What would I say? "Hey, I know how fascinated you are by my existence and you just seem so eager to get into my head and hear everything I have to say. Because I care so much about you, I've started a blog." I won't be surprised if I actually take offense to no one reading it. Maybe that means I should mention it to some people. There's that scene at the end of Pump Up the Volume (are you impressed with my hipness? I know how you kids love that Christian Slater) when he inspires everyone to start rogue radio shows to get their messages out there. So I guess I need a message. Any suggestions?
I'll finish tonight with a quote from Maria. "Manny has a problem and he needs to go by the gate to think about it. I think he has a problem with my bed."
