Been a while...

Yeah so this is exactly why I don't blog. I just completely forget about it, and then I feel like I'm neglecting it by not posting. But who am I kidding, there are what, two people that read this blog maybe? I guess that's cause it's kinda like Seinfeld's blog would be like if he had one: "It's a blog, about nothing!"

At any rate, here I am, wasting valuable nap time before I head off to work for the next couple of hours. I'm kinda tired of life guarding. Let me rephrase that; I'm VERY tired of life guarding. But hey, it's what's paying for me to get through college right now. I can't very well just go off and get a job doing IT somewhere without a college degree, right? I don't "know" anybody who can get me in with minimal school/experience. I guess I'll just have to work hard and get there on my own, eh? Man that sucks.

I want to travel really bad. Another thing that sucks. No money, how am I supposed to travel? Am I going to have to wait until I get out of college, get a good job, and save up money and pay off bills and buy a house and what not? Gah, but by that time I'll be married, or close to it anyways. I want to go now, while I still have the youth in me, before I'm tied down to a "real" job, my own family, etc.

Sorry, this all kinda has an emo tone to it. Probably just because I'm tired. Well in that case, I'm gonna go take a nap. Peace.

Back again.

It's been a few days, so I figured I'd drop by again, see how you all were doing...


...yeah..

Anyways, today's topic of blogism is obsession. I have been known to obsess over things for short periods of time like crazy. Now, there are things that I love that isn't just a short term obsession (for example, the Red Wings, Computers, foreign languages). However, every once in a while, something pops up that's so cool, it takes all my attention and energy for quite some time.

Example of me obsessing:
I heard a lot of great things about the video game Bioshock. I decide to get it, and play through it. I get so blown away by the scenery in this game, I actually consider redoing my room to match the game's decor. A little excessive, but you get the idea.

Now just for some random upates:

I bought a Growler from Kuhnhen's Pub. This is a 64 oz bottle that I can bring there and get filled with anything I want for 6 bucks (which is Root Beer at this point, but it's made by them and it's very tasty).

In other news, I'm learning japanese. It wouldn't do much good to display it here, though, since I could just as easily copy something off of the internet and put it here.

I'm back in WoW too. Got some bracers from Hyjal the other day, which made me a very happy shaman ^^.



Ok enough of this, go do something better with your time, please.

all aboard the fail boat

I have a strange problem: I'm indecisive. Not when it comes to important things, though. Whenever a big problem arises, or something that needs to be solved quickly comes up out of the blue, I have absolutely no problem getting done what needs to get done, and choosing the correct path to get there.

No, my problem comes around when I have small, menial choices to make.

What to eat?

What to do after work?

What to blog about?

Things that the outcome of which don't really matter one way or another. It's really annoying, but it doesn't seem to bother anybody else, mostly because it happens when I'm by myself.

So why's it such a problem then, right? I don't get it, but I guess it really doesn't matter much, eh?

I'm gonna go eat some pizza rolls...or maybe hot pockets...

Late nights

I find myself sitting here at my desk way later than I should be. Ideally, I'd like to head off to bed somewhere between 11pm and midnight, but for some reason I just sit here. Nothing productive really comes out of my late nights here at the desk, but a weird thought goes through my head: "I'm not exhausted yet, and if I go to bed now, I'll be wasting time, which I hate to do." (and yes, I do realize that the past sentence was coma-tastic)

Now, this is the worst possible thing my brain can be telling me. Anybody who knows me knows that I get sick a lot. Mostly just little colds and what not. I need sleep, and I definitely don't get enough of it as it is. So why can't I make myself go to bed?

It's not that if I actually go to bed, I won't sleep. No, I'll be out like a light (over-used simile). It's the act of getting out of this chair, closing Firefox, and walking across the basement into my room that's the trouble. I don't get it, but I guess it really isn't that big of a deal now, eh?



So, I really don't want this to be like LiveJournal...I want real thoughts and stuff to go into this. LiveJournal is for teenage girls who need a place online to fight with other teenage girls, and to talk about how they got to be lab partners with Bobby, and how his eyes are just so dreamy...

..that wasn't weird...


Anyways, have a good evening all (all = the zero people reading this blog). I'm off to bed. Really.

First day jitters...

So, I've gone and made a blog about me, Paul. A Paul blog...or a Plog, as some would say. Yes, I already tried that URL while signing up for this..and no it's not available *tear*.

Uh..so yeah. I've got work in a few minutes, then I've gotta go pay for school, then go to Sommerset, so I've got a bit of a day ahead of me.

This blog is just an experiment. At first I thought, "why make a blog, I already have Twitter..", but I got to thinking that I have more thoughts than can be expressed through the 140 character limit of Twitter. Anyways, keep coming back if you want, we'll see if this becomes a thing *wink*.

Peace,
Paul
