I just thought of an interesting thing. If I'm to date my musings, do I date them with the day that I'm actually writing on, or do I date them with the date that they're from. IE, today (right now), it's 10-18-99, but it's also 1:23 in the morning, so it would also make sense for this page to go under 10-17-99 since that's the contiguous day during which I'm actually writing. Hmm... Ok, now that I've wasted my time and yours on that, on to good stupid stuff.
Today is such a good day. I finally scored decently on a Physics test. About time. I'm not going to go into too many details or embarassing previous scores, but suffice it to say, Mr. Ford, that I don't think you'll be jumping around anymore. Ahem. Excuse me. Suffice it to say that I was doing terrible, but am now doing much better. Beyond this just meaning that I actually still DO have my test-taking-BS'ing skills, it also means I'm not going to drop Physics II and have to retake it next semester. I really didn't want to have to do that, but the way things were going, it was going to definitely be necessary. But it's not. Yeah! Oh, right, for potential stalkers who feel the need to study me, or, in the event that I'm famous some day, and every little bit of my private life suddenly becomes interesting in a way that makes The Matrix seem boring and dull, then you can see my exact scores on the physics 2049 grade sheet. I'm PIN 9497, and my social security number is uh, wait. Nevermind.
I'm going to start a journal. The only minor issue is that this acts as a temporary journal. I've long debated the merits of paper journals vs. the electronic type. Hah. Sorry, my classic kind of bad pun. But as digital as I am (and believe me, I'm quite the digital freak), I just love the feel of pen (oooohhh, I love a good pen, it's almost a fetish. Cheap and easy christmas present for those of you with no clue) on paper.
For those of you who see me frequently, please help hold me accountable. If you see me doing, or saying, something that doesn't fit with who I want myself to be, please let me know, and help me out. For more info on who I want to be, see musing 10-2-99. More specifically, I want to be speaking and thinking pure thoughts (ok, that's a stretch, but I really do--obviously I need help in this), and being humble. That's something I really struggle with, but that I'm honestly dealing with and trying to improve on. It's one thing to be full of bravado and be messing around, but there's a fine line that can cross over. If you feel I've done that, let me know -- not because I want to please others as much as I want to avoid even the appearance of any wrong-doing. Uh oh, I've upset some of the philosophical of you. Oh well, discuss it with me.
Ok, time to go make an entry in the "real" journal
