Journal Journal: Blah blah blah 1

I want to say something profound and witty that no one's ever said before, but everything's been said before and better than I can say it. I'm so uninteresting, I hardly ever have an original thought... that is, I've thought I've had original thoughts, dispositions, but I realize painfully over and over again that all I really do is put what other people say in different words.

Sometimes it feels impossible to make my own educated decision. I'm not entirely lacking in free will, I can make the more obvious choices, though to my point I can't even think of any good examples right now. It's where I have to choose things for myself is where I get hung up. Do I want the cheeseburger or the chicken sandwich? Soup or salad? The red one or the blue one? Have I had too much caffeine today? Should I care how I dress?

It's hard to care about myself. I feel like a machine and if someone isn't telling me what to do I can't get anything done.

I got an air mattress and I finally got some sleep last night, I feel refreshed and I can really keep up today, but I still feel blank. Maybe this is how people are supposed to feel, but I still feel like I don't have identity, like I used to have more and now I've forgotten it somewhere. It makes it hard to be happy when I'm alone.

Journal Journal: Blah Blah Slashdot

I really like slashdot, it's just got this wonderful feel to it and I have no idea what it is. Almost all the stories are things I'm interested in and most of the reporting is very neutral or on the side I like.

I've looked at The Register once it a while and I still look at Threat Level often, but Slashdot is the only site I look at every day and actually feel a need to keep up with.

I'm also not afraid to talk on it, but I feel like someone will actually see what I say so I won't just be forgotten.

I'm gonna donate 5 dollars right now now that I think about it and I actually have the money. I think I'll try to do it every month even.

Journal Journal: Bored and stuff.

Blah blah blah I'm saying stuff.

I'm typing this on a Qwerty keyboard, but I'm used to Dvorak. Ever since I switched to Dvorak like 6 years ago I've only gotten faster and better on it and I don't type it Qwerty that often, so whenever I do it's like trying to get a grip on a little handle meant for children or a big handle meant for those big, giant, muscle man high caliber guns. Maybe both at the same time.

Either way it throws off what I'm doing and I mess up what I'm saying more than usual. It's annoying.

I'm kind of bored, too. I'm at 'work' right now at the college, a temporary student employee. Next semester I'll have more responsibilities and stuff but right now I'm in the 'Community Technology Center', a public computer room where anyone can come into and go online and print stuff.

Occasionally someone actually needs my help, but most of the time out of the 5 to 7 people that come in here, either no one really needs my help or I just have to point at one thing and they suddenly know what to do.

I also have to keep the printer full of paper and toner and blah blah blah.

And I have to keep the room at 73 fahrenheit, and being that it's 94 degrees out I didn't think to bring a hoodie with me.

I'm just glad I didn't have to walk today, I can walk the four miles just fine but it's too hot lately.
