Ok I am definitely feeling surreal surreal I am watching Ollie "I cant remember North" as a correspondent for Fox News or "Rupert Murdochs answer for the 'Liberal' Media"

I am disgusted but I cant turn the news off.

God help us...

the problem is, that my roommate plays bob dylan like six times a day.

he's ruined for me.

and I like Cat Stevens better.

i know what you mean. watching the news recently is like watching live coverage of a train wreck...or a war.
wait. it is live coverage of a war. nevermind.

I am out of words to describe the war. I dont know what to think. My dad thinks the war is a right wing religous conservative conspiracy to bring the end times on us deliberately by polarizing the world into a camp of Isalm and chrisitanity.

Maybe he was being devils advocate , no pun intended, because I shocked his liberal sensibilities by saying that...

I have been thinking about the power of dreams. About how dreams when you're in them can feel so real. Like in the matrix. I also remember reading Peirs Anthony books as a kid and thinking about night mares had the job to deliver people's dreams. Of course day mares brought day dreams and you know I havent day dreamed in sooooo long. * Sigh*...

Well I just started reading "Awaking the Buddah Within" again. Last few days I have been really genuinely happy and it sacres the shit out of me.

I mean I have been sort of depressed on and off for several years, but mostly not seriously depressed in any way but just blah all the time. I had thought I had come to terms with it,...

I have been a practicing buddhist for years. When I am not practicing my world starts to fall apart. Keep at it, it's such a great feeling when all is right with the world. That inner peace..you can't beat it..

I agree with lovecat, I get attached very easily too, and have a hard time letting go but tend to do so a bit more easily when I am practicing, I have better clarity, i see thing from a diffirent prospective.

I used to get depressed...and I did let go of a bunch of crap that other people/society convinced me of. I'm not practicing anything even vaguely theological. Just my own little approach to life that I'm sure really only works for me.

Keep at it.

Well the weekend drinking fest is over and what have I learned? That I am not in prime drinking form anymore. I handled the hangovers pretty well but I feel like I wont want to go out to a bar or show for a couple of months. I think I should move to California where the bars arent filled with cigarette smoke. I am beginning...

inara:
Deal breakers? Hmmm, I'm not real fond of smoking, but I might be able to tolerate it, I know however, I could never date a guy who chewed. That is so gross. No job and no car wears quite thin on me as well. Not that I'm some big materialistic bitch, but I could never get serious about a guy my age or older that hasn't gotten off his ass enough to have the two staples of adult life under his belt.

WHOO HOOO got that Blur song in my head right now cuase I feel buzzed after getting the BIG interview over with.

This manager is really hard to read, I had interviewed with him twice for two identical positons in the last year and a half, so the fact that he granted me a third chance must mean I am in serious contention right?

Whooo hooo the manager for the two postions I applied for is going to meet with me on friday. I had already in the past interviewed for the same position last year and was not hired. He called and said he would like to get to see if we can get together and have a conversation. Is a "conversation" considered an interview? Maybe he is...

i hope you get the job. we can all use a bit of money, too bad we have to work for it.

I wonder sometimes about how hung people in our culture are about death. I think we are more hung up on it than on sex. I believe there is a buddhist meditation about dying sort of where you imagine yourself dying and then even decaying and returning to the earth or whatever. I guess it is supposed to help relieve anxieties about something we will...

WOOHOO!!! biggrin A fellow Dune reader. I must've read that series right through 4 times at least. Did you know Kyle McLachlan (played Paul Mua'Dib in Lynch's adaptation) reads the first book once a year. He says it's his bible.

I can see you are a werewolf fan. What I CAN'T see is why the dark, sensual film adaptation of Little Red Riding Hood better known as 'The Company of Wolves' was somehow less of a favorite than 'Brotherhood of the Wolf'. mad This guy did a whole analysis of it: http://www.geocities.com/za5tar/thecompanyofwolves.html

Know what's in my head? That April March song from the intro sequence to 'But I'm A Cheerleader':

hang up the chick habit
hang it up, daddy,
or you'll be alone in a quick
hang up the chick habit
hang it up, daddy,
or you'll never get another fix

i'm telling you it's not a trick
pay attention, don't be thick
or you're liable to get licked

you're gonna see the reason why
when they're spitting in your eye
they'll be spitting in your eye

hang up the chick habit
hang it up, daddy,
a girl's not a tonic or a pill
hang up the chick habit
hang it up, daddy,
you're just jonesing for a spill

It's in this french turn-of-the-60's go-go style. Very catchy. biggrin

Wow! eeek Funny that you put up that pic.

The brother of the Dhali lama, Tendzin Choygel is co-teaching a class called Buddhist - Christian Dialogues with my MOdern Philosophy professor who also happens to be a jesuit priest. Anywho, the dhali lama is coming to my school to speak on September fifth and I am TOTALLY wetting myself.

well been gone a couple days and coming back here it feels weird.

Most people I have met here have been kind and wonderful people and I wonder why I cant find more of them in real life? Why cant we find more of what we want out of real life?

I spent the last couple days house sitting and they dont have a computer...

I try to take the same approach to sex as I do to making expensive clothing purchases. I take some time to think about it, and if I keep thinking about wanting it, I go back for it. And if it isn't there, I wasn't meant to have it in the first place. wink
