Year End Review - Gave Hope and a Brand New Day

I am on the in Charles' room getting ready for tonights party, eating dinner and rocking out to Andrew WK , thinking about the craziness of this last year.

A mere 12 months ago I was in the same room but hundreds of miles away from Charles.The last year has been amazing, it has been a great journey. I have delved into nothingness. I have have been showered with torrential pain and bathed in the resulting puddles of joy. Conflict and loneliness have refined my friendships. My eyes have been forced open by tears to the true world. My minds eye has been forced open by visions thoughts to beautiful to pass by.

Now and tonight the worlds finest are once again going to go out on the town.

As the the Ting Tings come on I look forward to all that will happen in 2009.

What went down from this fooling around.
Gave hope and a brand new day.

Imagine all the girls,
Ah ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah.
And the boys,
Ah ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah.
And the strings,
Eee, eee, eee, eee, eee, eee, eee, eee.
And the drums, the drums, the drums, the drums, the drums, the drums, the drums, the drums, the drums, the drums, the drums, the drums.

Naked Chickens

I am fairly average city boy. In other words I know very little about Chickens.

Into the Wild?

This last year I have struck out on a new path. Into the wild of my soul. Trying to conquer the wilderness and tame the wild beasts. It has not gone as easily as I would like. But challenges make adventures that much better.

I am beging to worry about Obama

The rumor has it that Obama is going to nominate Hillary Clinton to be Secretary of State.

Hooray only 76 days until Change!

When I die I want to leave a tidy corpse.

I am the Wild

This morning I woke up from this dream that reminded me of Into the Wild. I meant to write it down. Very rarely do I remember my dreams when I wake up let so it was kind of special.

That dream rekindled my fascination with Christopher McCandless. I read the wikipedia entery on Into the Wild and came across something interesting. A company called Terra Incognita made a documentary that debunks so of the assertions made by the movie and the book.

The concept I came up with today is that, men seem themselves as both boring and unknowable. The reason one pursues the adventure is to conquer the wild within. At least that is my journey.
