we're all ok, until the day we're not. the surface shines, while the inside rots. we raced the sunset and we almost won. we slammed the brakes, but the wheels went on. -rise against.
so i did a little thinking and i'm coming up with a list of things i want to do before i die. i've done these before but i don't think i wrote them down on something other than a post it. anyway. i plan on sharing these things soon.
i went on a run a little while ago. michael bailed on me, and i almost didn't go but i guess now is as good a time as ever to make a lifestyle change. i'm on pills, im semi active, i'm eating fruit and chugging water like it's the last day on earth. if that doesn't kick start my defective metabolism, nothing will :)
michaels making dinner tonight. getting spaghetti. woop. i'm in the process of downloading some movies for tonight and tomorrow, since he has the day off (but pulling a night shift. bummer). i got shutter island downloading and i'm about to find 'the crazies' when the site comes back up. i got 'little miss sunshine', 'groundhog day' and 'the birdcage' loading now. super!
i just thought back on something. when i was doing my job as an intelligence analyst. i thought it was really boring as i did it, and when i came to korea and no longer worked as an analyst, i thought i missed it. and i'm thinking back on my team leader who was constantly rejecting our reports saying they were crappy, etc. it's funny to think that the people who produce our intelligence reports and articles and brief "the big guys" are the same people you watch get sloshed on the weekends, playing beer pong and taking home "that girl".
due to my background working in that field, with those people, i don't think i will ever trust that the country is in good hands. there's so much people 'on the outside' just don't see or know. it's kinda a shame.
that's it for now.

1. A migraine.
2. A fancy; a whim.
3. In the plural: lowness of spirits -- often with 'the'.

I can't wait till you share this list. I should rewrite mine, I did it awhile back, and I actually think I have done a few things on it. There are definitely things that I want to do before I die. As I have gotten older these goals are become more serious and realistic.
ReplyDeleteDon't take pills....they are bad. ;)
Our country isn't in good hands cause I am one of those people getting trashed and going to strip club spending all my money on a girl with daddy issues. And when I get back guess what I am going to do till I get out of the Army. But once I ETS, I am going to try to find a good girl, settle down, and POSSIBLY have a family. And learn what becoming an adult really is like.
i'll probably sit down and work on it this weekend :) i've scratched off a couple from my old lists.
ReplyDeletei think being an adult is boring.
