I'm going to try start typing into this journal on a regular basis for the next year... I'm bookmarking it and everything. It probably won't be EVERY day, but at least once per week.
If I manage once a week, that'll be 52 growth points I can look back at next year.
You, ashli, are partially responsible for that. Your entry a couple posts ago about typing down shit in order to work through/ to shit, struck a nerve.
I've been meaning to for awhile... this is the third year of blowing off Na-No-Wri-Mo, after all, but with the best of intentions...
I have all these half assed ideas that I never bring to fruition, and maybe putting them down on paper (as a matter of phrase) will help in some sort of personal evolution. Or maybe not. We'll see...
I spend too much time dicking off online... I end up looking for information that if I were unplugged I couldn't care less about. Hell, after I get offline I don't even retain 1/2 off what I've SO DIGILantly RESEARCHED (even 10 minutes earlier!)
If I'm gonna be online these many hours, I may as wel jot down some thoughts I'm having as I DL some weird music... I'm on dialup, I got time!
Too, I spend too much time watching tv... really, there's only one hour of tv I need to injest: The Daily Show and Colbert... But no! I've got way too much tv time mapped out: 4-5= Millionaire and Jeopardy, 5-6= Seinfeld, 6-7= Simpsons, 7-10= Whatever crap is on (currently Ugly Betty, House, and a couple others I can't recall at this moment), 10-11= Daily Show and Colbert, 11-2= Late night talk shows, 2-sleep= Adult Swim... God I'm pathetic. Just after typing that down I feel a bit nauseous... Minute to minute, hour to hour, it seems pretty natural, but now here on the page it looks so soo sooo sad and sick.
OK, I see where I need to go. This is the first transmission. Things will get dialed in clearer, better, from here on out.
