have recently decided that I am going to start keeping a journal. However, in the meantime, I will continue to periodically torture you all with my ramblings.
I have such wisdom I feel it is but my duty to share it wil you all. So, I give you: the rearview mirror analogy.
I have found that, as unpleasant or sad, etc your past/things in your past may be, you must always keep them in mind and somewhat present in the current time. It is important to learn from your past and to let it help shape you and your life and your future path. I also believe, however, that it is very important to keep most of your focus on what's ahead, and what is happening right now. You can't know where you will end up if you can't see where you are going. It is for this reason that I came up with the rearview mirror analogy: you don't want to drive your car looking only in the rearview mirror, or you will only see where you've been (and not where you're headed). You can't drive only looking through your windshield, or you may see where you're going (but not where you've been). If you forget to look out the side windows, you'll miss some really good scenery that you're passing RIGHT NOW and will lose sight of the journey itself.
Deep, eh brah....duuuuude I know.
ALSO
Whilst discussing life in general with my brother this evening, we brought song lyrics into the discussion. It started out with me saying something about ninjas and a friend of mine who ate acid and fought ninjas in the woods by my house. My brother said to me, "Well, was he successful?"
and I said "I think he was, because I never did see any ninjas in the woods after that."
Anyhow this discussion led to a reference to the Ben Folds Live CD and the song whose name I don't recall in which Mr Folds references a night that a man ate a bunch of acid, climbed up in a tree at a party, and came down at sunrise a born-again Christian. Ben Folds says something to the effect of "it's where drugs and religion meet back on the other side" or something like that.
That led to a discussion on the concept that if you are toe to toe with someone, and you each continually take steps backwards, you'll eventually end up back to back on the other side of the world.
This made me think of the idea that two people can be inches apart, literally or figuratively; and if they are facing each other they are as close as they can be...but if they are facing away from each other, they are worlds apart...even though the actual distance never changes.
Then I referenced the Modest Mouse song "3rd Planet" in which it is said, "The universe is shaped exactly like the earth; if you go straight long enough you'll end up where you were". That's reassuring and scurrrry at the same time. Not only is it literal in the sense of the globe, etc but also it bears some reflecting upon in regards to the idea that it is a good life metaphor. If you go straight long enough (i.e., remain on the same path that you are currently on) you'll end up where you were (things will remain the same in your life). It is good, I think, to NOT go straight sometimes.
did I just blow your miiiind, man?
Hope so.

I'm feeling better, but still not back to full health. Ended up going to the hospital after 6 hours of continous vomitting, and they kept me for the day. They thought I might have appendicittis, so I had to get numerous testings and such done. Luckily my appendix appears to be fine for the time being.

by the way, AJ, please do explain to me how any of my "references" are "tired".
I've not had the discussion, personally, that you apparently have with someone who said the same things I said here. I'm not saying I'm the first to explain things this way, but it's not exactly common conversation from what I'm aware of.

+2 for ninjas. Christmas day a few years ago we were driving and there was (I swear to god) a ninja in complete outfit including katana doing the *ninja run* down the street. My ex wanted to pull over and fight him with the light saber i got him for christmas. But by the time we stopped, ninja boy disappeared.

The trick is to just make it seem like you're always busy.
Never walk anywhere without a piece of paper in your hand, even if you're just going for a piss.
Block out random sections of your electronic calendar, and make it virtually impossible for anyone to get hold of you.
Get your friends to constantly ring your boss's direct number and say stuff like "hello this is xxx from <insert department>. I really need to speak to Joey regarding <insert bullshit task>, could you leave him a message?

JOEY: Who do you support?
DROGO: Did this post blow your mind?
-------------
I'm a chelsea man through and through. I've stuck with them since the days of the old second division, not like some of the glory seeking fuckers who have switched allegiance from Arsenal to United, and then to Chelsea, depending on whoever wins the fucking league.
And yes, it was wholly satisfying to kick the gooners ass last weekend. Mourinho still aint gonna last long though.
==========
One of my best mates is Chelsea too, and he's been Chelsea all his life too.
I used to like you guys, I never knew if you were gonna win 5-0 or get tonked by the same score. Now, sadly, I dislike about 3/4 of your players. But then, my lads include the most hated player in England. Too many England fans belive what they read in the Sun.

In football it's an own goal, "credited" against the player who put it in. It's only an own goal if it was going to miss without the defending player touching it - if it was on target and takes a touch from a defender, it's a "deflection" and the shooting player still gets credit.
Joey, who's your team?

Fair enough. How do they register own goals anyways? In Hockey they register the goal to the last opposing player who touched it.

I remember the first time we broke the taboo of drinking before noon. We were on holiday at Port Macquarie, about 4 years ago, and one of my mates emerged from the tent at 9:15 am with a rum. He proceeded to sit, open the can and drink 2 swallows. Only then would he deign to say "Morning, guys." We all shrugged and joined him

My first time was on a lads holiday to blackpool.
Breakfast consisted of a greasy fry up and 5 pints of stella after a night of heavy binging.
Cue the Pepsi max roller coaster....... I'll say no more about that day.

Thats like a prequel to the wizard of oz (sort of).
I took some chick to watch it in the west end.
It didn't suck as much as I thought it would have done.
Sadly, neither did she.
