Ack!

I haven't forgotten about this thing... honest! It's just that I'm so busy! And now that I have a little time, I'm sick. Oh, and behind on homework (boooooo). So how 'bout I post on, um, well let's see... tomorrow I don't have work but I need to fill out an application to study in DC because tomorrow's the deadline... then Wednesday I need to catch up on Music History... Thursday I work, same deal Friday and Saturday, so how 'bout Sunday? Oh crap, I have a listening quiz Sunday that I need to study for............ ACK!

See what I mean?

I guess I'll try to post on Wednesday or Thursday. A lot has happened in this last month, and my brain keeps on churning out ideas like it needs to or something, so I really wanna untangle all my thoughts via this blog soon.

See you all then (whenever that turns out to be)!

Late night thought

As a preface: Clayton's friend Sam has been visiting from Florida for the last few days, and tonight he said, "Yeah, tomorrow I'm gonna go back to my real life."

That got me thinking: Why do we call our mundane lives 'real'? I've used that expression several times myself - "Well, back to reality" when I'm talking about leaving something fun; usually to do schoolwork or chores or something. I guess we dream of being free from our responsibilities and create a fantasy world of Pleasure where we get to do what we want 24/7. However, few, if any, of us actually live in that world, leaving 'normal' people to work until we can visit Pleasure on the weekend. Kinda puts a new spin on 'living the dream,' doesn't it?

Well, back to reality... which right now means it's time for bed! Oh, and I'll probably post later this week as a follow-up to my first post, so check back soon!
