Drinking alone…

Saturday, March 13th, 2010

I find drinking alone, not to say I’m drinking alone where I’m a person who is not someone with whom time can be spent with, though it can be a headache and, ine the end, not worth the experience, which I’m sure is an insult I can write down and hand to my parents as for a Christmas statement.  Perhaps I can pass ot off as an early Christmas present.  It may not be needed however since I am, in their testimonial, “jowly and offputting” and “never going to meet anyone and die alone because of my personality” which leads me to believe they have plenty of ammo in their arsenal and don’t need my help to put me down.

Wow.

that took a weird turn into shrink country.

As I was originally saying — before I went crazy — is that I finddrinking alone my soundtrack seems to lean mozt oc the time towards crooners and sad songs of loss and regret.  I think we’re still in shrink country.

And % need another drink.

Third

Ian Fleming wrote one of my most favourite lines in Goldfinger:
“They have a saying in Chicago: ‘Once is happenstance. Twice is coincidence. The third time it’s enemy action.’”
It’s been a few years since I’ve written a blog.  I first started almost 9 years ago.  Right around the time of 9/11.  I think I started before that aroung 1999 or so but 2001 is the earliest posts I still have.  As with most blogs of a personal nature, everything was bullshit.  A diary kept in public space which seems to be the way ‘new media’ seems to be leading things.
It used to be a diary was a personal thing.  Your thoughts, put into words that were there for you and you alone or possibly future generations.  Of course you’d most likely be gone at that point.  Now with the new thought process  of the world, it’s become this: a diary written for an audience. R, real or perceived.  Though like a normal diary, mostly dull.  Instead of ‘dear diary’ it’s ‘dear strangers possibly reading this’

No longer …As this is being done mobily I’m now typing blind which means any distraction that causes loss of my train of thought makes this look less like a stream of thought and more like the ramblings of a lunatic.  Of course the difference may never have been there to begin with.

to convey what I mean, the roommate is currently playing a game where he throws a dummy down stairs for points.  he can put faces on the dummy.  I’m sure it’s cathartic but every high score is now a distraction.
