i have to check my mail earlier in the day. is it cool to just introduce yourself to someone at random? i don't even know why i ask this--that's what happened to me, and i didn't find it weird. my brain is just not together these days. i wonder what's up.
so you'd better start swimmin' or you'll sink like a stone...

...the mayans conceived time as being like a huge network of gear wheels, from very small ones turning fast (hours, days) to huge ones turning very slowly (centuries, millenia). anyway, december 23 2012 is the day that all those gear sprockets meet back up and their original starting position...there are a couple books about this, jose argulles is the biggest proponet of this theory and what it means...it's interesting b/c the maya were such a peculiar culture, basically came out of nowhere, with this amazingly advanced calender system, astronomy, math, arcitecture, and disappeared as fast as they came...now a lot of this also has to do with the idea that there is a cosmic intelligence that helps other intelligent lifeforms attain the level of galactic awareness...so the mayans were seeded with this kind of galactic dna...hence their coming out of nowhere and disappearing...they were building monuements and leaving clues behind so that others may decode it and figure what had to happen...it's interesting that it's a positive view of the end of the world, which is rare...that instead of fiery apocolypse and godly judegement, we all achieve a new level of being and join the intergalactic intelligence community....whoo, that's the abridged version...i just think end of the world theories are interesting in many ways, and this one in particular...so it's a day i await but i'm not getting my hopes up...
