I wanna be old(er)

I am 34

i would like to live to be 85+

it would be cool to see how much the world changed by that time

if we have a world

it may burn up in those years

idk

i'm wired

can you tell?

(this is not a poem)

what the hell?

why did my last post default to anonymous?

oh well

anyway, i am on my third Red Bull and am feeling quite happy. this is a good night. It is about 60...something degrees and the breeze is blowing, and there may be rain in store, and i have the windows open, and i am as happy as can be. so frreshhhh ;P

i hope everyone is having as good a night as i am having and hope no one had as bad of a day as i had.

you live, you learn.

Ranting

i went on a hell of a little rant on the Writer app/website/whatever just now about how i am against all media. I am not calling anything “fake news” (except for Fox News, of course), i am simply saying that the First World is obsessed with constant, Constant, CONSTANT media consumption to the point where it has become a round-the-clock addiction that they have to feed ALL THE TIME and that everything about it (TV, Internet, social media) has to stop at some point because i seriously doubt the human psyche can tolerate the non-stop stimulation. I am speaking for myself to some degree here, but i certainly do my best to AVOID anything the media says and I barely even listen to NPR anymore these days.

Anyway, that's all for now.

Making coffee again because there is no point in sleeping.

i had a good enough nap this evening. I am not tired right now.

That and i need something to drink besides water.

Night Mode

Never tried this before on this Website. I always use it for Twitter, but never for Write.as. I like it, a lot. Now my entire screen is not burning my retinas.

I am sorry but i have nothing else to say besides that.

Re-mousing

I hooked the Bluetooth mouse back up to the MBA again because this is simply a better way of using this device, i feel. I also am enjoying this coffee and thinking of a cool way to spend the next several hours as i took a hell of a nap this evening and doubt i am going to sleep a lot tonight and i kinda/sorta wanna be awake when the sun is rising so i can take a walk to the grocery store to get some energy drinks.

These are just thoughts.

I really wish TweetBot wasn't gutted

I am using it right now and i think it is going to be a terrible experience. Everything is going to be updated once every two minutes and some notifications are not going to come through, and that really sucks. I god damn hate twitter (even more) now that they have taken away the only pleasant third-party app to utilize Twitter. Fucking annoying.

Anyway, there is nothing special happening tonight. Just #writing and Tweeting (bc my life is v boring).

Offline Writing

I am continuing to use the writer.bighugelabs.com website for writing “offline” and i feel that i can get a lot of writing done that way or at least communicate my words from my brain to the text editor w/o any hangups. This is because I can write w/o having to worry about anybody reading it besides myself (which i never do) and...yeah. Just writing for the sake of it w/o an audience is quite liberating.

As for my days of going offline, as in myself, entirely w/o the internet for weeks at a time – i think those days are over with. There is simply nothing to gain from it and in fact makes my life very boring, so, i am not going to do that anymore.

the budget

....has been fixed. I thought i was going to owe a chunk of change to an entity when i got paid, but it turned out to be a false alarm. So, i do not have to worry about it (which is v good). It also means that i can get 100% of the backpacking/camping gear i need for the first weekend in October when I do my SOLO trip! (i am still p excited about that).

As for tonight, i got nothing to do. i have an appt tomorrow AM and once that appt is finished, I have something to mail off. Before that, i will have a nice early AM walk to the store for a few things. So a full day tomorrow :)

I am going to make some coffee in a little bit here but not right now because i just had din din and i don't wanna mix food + coffee because some things just don't mix.

Anyway, be back in a bit

This Week

...is swamped. Yesterday I spent the majority of the day at the 'rents waiting for my dad to get out of dialysis, and then waiting for 3:30 to roll around so I could head back home, and then waiting even more because there was a traffic accident.

BUT

I got some great grocery shopping done and slept 12 hours last night so I am 100% refreshed as of today. And also while i was oot and aboot, I made plans to go to Washington State Park (WSP) the first weekend in October for a SOLO backpacking trip! Holy shit! I cannot wait because I have been wanting to camp for a v long time. I made a small list on Amazon of the remaining stuff I will need and have it ready-to-go in the Amazon cart. I have the majority of what I need but the few things I still need are necessary items, so...

As for right now, I am having coffee after a healthy breffy and am fooling about on Twitter.

I feel good!

Be back in a bit!
