Entering a New Front

One war rests tonight... and another will begin anew come next month. Now how will that go, I wonder...?

Fun Tuesday

It's Tuesday, and it's also a fun Tuesday! Let this Tuesday be fun! Why? Because Tuesdays can be fun!

Side Notes

And when the gears turn, we wonder what will come cranking out of the holds.
Products anew; chaos ensue; the future lies with me and you.

Maybe I should stop copying things down from notes my friends and I have jottted.

Where Does It Go

I'm really wondering where the time goes sometimes. One minute, you think it's yesterday, and then next, it's four days later. Why does it disappear like that, and how does it vanish so quickly?

I promise you... if I find out, I'll tell you.

Fun Things Distracting

You know, I almost forgot to post something here for today. Guess that's what happens when you get involved in fun RP stuff. Yay for fun things, right?

Flip the Week

Wednesday. The middle of the week. "Hump Day." A day where the whole week can whiplash back at you and leave you stung and hurt.

And yet at the same time, the inverse may happen.

Hitting Blackjack

The object of the card game known as "Blackjack" is to get to 21 or as close as possible to it.

Normally, if your two initially-dealt cards add up to 21, you have a blackjack and can no longer do anything for that roundm (Why would you? Barring someone else having blackjack, you've already won.)

However, you occasionally have that oddball player who wants to be hit with another card for some strange reason. They could be new at the game and not know that a blackjack is an (almost-guaranteed) automatic victory. They could be drunk and not realize they're screwing themselves over. They could be some radical crazy-head who decides to take the ace in their possession and treat it as a "1" instead of an "11."

Or, for those of us still following along with the metaphor: they could be someone wanting more than just a victory... more than an easy win from a chancy gamble. They want it all AND THEN SOME... ...and when you think about it, SO DO I.

Sputtering Thought

For all things lost, there is a benefit. I don't know exactly what that benefit is right at this moment, but I know that there is one. I'm working somewhere between "keeping alive spiritually" and "staying on life support everywhere" - and I'm sure that the benefit in question is buried somewhere beneath the line.

That's what I want. I don't know what else I'm looking for, but it's there. I'm sure of it. Beneath the line, beneath the times, beneath the waves of despair and fury that threaten to capsize and drown this boat I'm barely keeping afloat on.

And also, I could use some sanity right about now. Using what's left of it seems to be quite taxing, and to be honest: it's a bit unnerving.

"C" Row Hero

Someone tell me that today is today, for today's not a day that will just go away
For crimes of a certain fashion seem to be the world's passion
The call is made to the skies, seeking aid from passersby
But I won't be the hero - I'm just there seated in "C" row.

This theater of hope and wonder, besieged by the sons of plunder
is the world, is our whole; such life becomes our soul.
But I just bide my time and speak to you in rhyme
For I'm no man - I'm a zero, just waiting to become the hero.

Climbing a Long Ladder

I'd give my life... not for honor, but for you!
In my time, there'll be no one else!
Criiiiiiime... it's the way I fly to you!
I'm stiiiiiiiiill in a dream... Snake Eater!

Anti-Shock

You know, I almost forgot about posting today's entry. As I was finished getting dinner, a thought struck me: "Have I posted?"

The answer, of course, was a "no" - but for some reason I wasn't even surprised. Am I really that disillusioned with myself? Have I started to go down that road? Not yet. I'm teetering, and frankly, I don't know which way I'll be falling.

What It Is

Today is Tuesday.

Tuesday means that your three-day weekend that ended yesterday has in fact ended.
Tuesday means that Monday isn't here to give you an excuse for irrational hatred.
Tuesday means that anyone who works a Tuesday-Saturday schedule can (and most likely will) gripe about their "Monday."
Tuesday means that you can't wait until "hump day" to show up so that you're closer to Friday.

And Tuesday means that "Tuesday Morning Downtime" is up. All World of Warcraft players (myself included) are now grinding their teeth in anxiousness. =P

Faithful Jump

There are some days where you have to take the leap into the unknown. Today is one such day.

Questioning Too Many

I just wonder sometimes what it is I'm destined to do with myself. Where will I go? How will I get there? Do I succeed before I fail - only to succeed again after a long time passes? Do I dream of such lies and live without truth? Do I hang out with people? Stay by myself? Read? Play? Search?

I don't know. I ask myself many questions, and yet I get no answers. That's probably because I don't make sense to myself half the time. Hey - isn't that normal for me? When did I ever make sense?

And when the frak am I going to start posting well on here!?

Nothing Disguises

I don't really feel like posting anything today. So all you get is this.

Yes, I'm aware - it's not really the coolest thing, but... hey. I'm working on things. I'm busy. I'm also a tad uninspired to do anything, but yeah. Other things being done - that's something.

Still on Life Support

Ten days in the new year. I'm feeling up for it, but I'm not up to the task yet. I'd say there's a lot of factors between my "lethargy" and my unwillingness to do anything, but nah. I'm tired.

We'll see. We'll just have to keep on rolling until something comes along that instills me with the energy we want me to have to post with.

Defragging

There's a lot going on today for me. Between transferring things to and from my external hard drives and defragging every part of my computer (in an effort to make my aging laptop perform better), I've gotta make sure I don't get bored while I wait.

Well, there's my initial plan: figure out some RP things. Whoo-hoo.

Recently I got "promoted" in the Twilight Empire - I went from a Plebian (their "probationary" rank for newly-recruited individuals) to Soldier. I elected to join the military branch, and as such, that means I'm enlisted to aid in battlegrounds and military escorts for any citizens and what not of the Empire. It's gonna be fun.

Well, back to work. My laptop's not gonna get better by me just sitting back and typing all day!

Sabbathical

The seventh day. According to the Bible, that's when God relaxed. Granted, it was a Sunday - and granted, I'm not religious. However, that sounds like a good idea. Relax time starts now... *smiles*

Choosing Life

Day six. Still nothing good yet. Friends and fun and funny things are still the priority right now in the start of 2013.

Why? Call it laziness. Call it me living in the moment. Call it "enjoying what optimism I have left in life" or some other thing like that.

All I know is this: I'm choosing life and then living.

WHAT

You'd think that with this entry being ridiculously short (again), I'd be slacking off.

However, that is not the case. A friend of mine decided to show me The Book of Eli (by force).

He and our other friend are currently picking up the scattered remains of my exploded brain.

Four On The Floor

Four days into the year and it feels like I'm sort of slacking off. Hah. Don't worry - something's coming - just not right now.

Three Dud's the Charm

I know, I know - nothing here. But that's because life is getting in the way. And for once, it's getting in the way in a great way.

This is the third day of 2013, and I have to say that I'm having some fun so far. Hanging with friends, hanging with my girlfriend, having fun with creative things in roleplaying (I'm fleshing out Calvington's history and character - both past and present)... there's a whole bunch of things going on that have been making life more... well, let's just say bearable for the time being.

I don't know when I'll be able to catch up and talk to you about things, but one thing's for certain. You know what that is? A fun entry for y'all to read. It's 2013, and it's a new year. This will be the third year that this blog will be up... and it's said that the third time's the charm.

What do you say? Do you agree with my flawed logic? =D

Dud Two

Twice now we see nothing. However, will the third time be the charm? I'd guess so - I'm spending the day with friends, so this day isn't wasted at all. =D

First Dud

That's what this entry is. It's New Year's Day - and that means I'm still partying.

Tomorrow. I promise you.
