Randomly

Once you’ve been tagged, you have to write a note with 16 random things, shortcomings, facts, habits or goals about you. At the end choose up to 16 people to be tagged, listing their names and why you chose them. You have to tag the person who tagged you…

1. I’m hanging up my Anti-Telepathy Girl suit. I’m done with other people’s thoughts. It only brings me unneccessary grief and stress. Fuck it.

2. Be a little more selfish. You only have one life anyway.

3. I’m going to travel, read, and speak my mind with less fear and restraint. In fact all this time, fear and restraint has only managed to garble my messages and lead to me speaking “out of my ass.” It doesn’t mean to become thoughtless as well.

4. Jazz and blues and are so awesome! Some of my happiest moments recently have come from listening to it. Its even better LIVE!

5. I’m ok with living my life without religion and the belief in a god. I’m still learning to be ok with being called an atheist but I still have a little reservation. Afterall, the word “atheist” represents the definitively negative (non-belief in a god, not a theist). I like the newer, more positive term “a bright.” And no, calling myself “a bright” would not mean that I think I’m smarter than you. =/

6. I keep myself extremely busy and I like it that way. I have darker, irrational tendencies that I still work through and filling my life with production and as much self-propelled positive action keeps me sane.

7. Write your thoughts down all the time. Don’t think about it while your writing it. Just read it later. Astounding!

8. Owning my own home with the next dream I will accomplish. I think I’m managing this endeavor SO well and there is a lot to be proud of.

9. Hot Chocolate is better than coffee. This is a new development. However, it must be severely regulated. Its also much more fattening.

10. Documentaries are remarkable tools for education and the internet is fertile ground for its distribution. Be aware of the information and maintain a willingness to research sources of evidence.

11. I love my cell phone. Its so cute.

12. Hats were once reviled. Now they are among my favorite accessories.

13. My father is in New York and I’m so happy about this.

14. President Obama? Secretary of State Clinton? So weird to be able to say that. I hope it all goes well.

15. I’m better at saving money than a lot of people.

16. Coming up with this suddenly feels rather silly. How random is it if I had to work hard to reach 16?

Respect the white line!

Crossing the street, minding my own business during my lunch hour I was blissfully listening to my lil’ shuffle (affectionately named Clementine) playing “Interstate Love Song” when all of the sudden, “SSSssscccccccccccccccreeeeeeeeeeeeechhhh!!!” 
I don’t know, but that whole thing about life flashing before your eyes is utter bullsh*t because all I pictured was Scott Weiland’s head exploding. *shrugs

When I came to half a second later, I realized a taxi cab almost ran me over. The sh*t that pisses me off is that I had the right of way. And whats worse?! HE gets mad at ME and speeds off after I continue walking across the street. Before I could shake my fist in the air and swear him off to kingdom come, a most unexpected (and pleasant for me at least) suprise! A cop car comes out of no where and the sirens start blaring. I’d have done my little ipod-shuffle dance right there if it hadn’t been for the fact that the next song was “Stairway to Heaven.” Not exactly victory-dance material, you know?
