Jul. 10th, 2003 01:45 pmHow did it get to be Thursday afternoon, for crying out loud? Same way it always does, I guess. Duh.
Not much going on. Or I guess there is, just don't feel like I'm moving very fast. Kinda sleepy today. I keep thinking I'll go home and sleep like mad, but for some reason it never happens. I did get over feeling crappy the other night, though, so I'm glad about that. Don't need another string of that shit.
Good plans on the horizon. Won't say anything more about that right now.

What are your thoughts about things happening for a reason? I always totally rejected the idea of pre-destination, and I still do for the most part. I'm not religious, and honestly I'm not sure about the whole God thing. However, despite the rational, evidence-based side of my mind, I do see things that make me believe that there is some greater force at work. Maybe it's the clouds or the sun, or maybe it's something inside each person. Or maybe just some people. Or maybe it's Joe Pesci, the man George Carlin prays to. But whatever it is, I have noticed things happening in my life that seem to suggest some kind of order. Now, it's definitely a fucked-up, paradoxically haphazard order, but still. This is in the past four or five years mainly that I'm talking about. The string of events amazes me when I think about how one thing wouldn't have happened if not for another thing that was unlikely and came about because of a third thing, etc. But who knows? Maybe it's only because it actually happened that I see it that way. If it had happened another way, then I'd see a connection between that string of events. And just because there are connections between events and cause-and-effect action going doesn't mean that everything's laid out beforehand. You make choices and meet people and things happen and build on one another. Freaky how these things work, huh?
But yeah, whaddya think? I myself am cursed by the ability to see all sides of an issue, so I can never figure these things out. Not that there's necessarily any right or wrong that absolutely applies the same to everyone.

HTML humor, bet ya haven't seen that one before, huh? Yeah.
This is me, I swear, I'm just in an atypical mood. :) Not bad, just different.
