soundtrak: london elektricity: do you believe
wednesday's list:
- so i finally finished reading this book, indecision (by benjamin kunkel) i actually started it a couple of months ago, but then got into work and school and then let abbs read it before i finally finished it this evening. i finished it on the train, the odd book, so i was carrying it in my hand as i was taking the elevator up to my car. the man that got in the elevator car with me took a look at my book and asked, "does that book state the goodness of indecision?" i kinda looked at him funny; where was he going with this? then he stated, "indecision is the flexibility of change." after i made my hasty exit (you see, this is why i wear earphones... i don't like to talk to strange people), i thought about it some more. despite the crazy last chapters and even crazier ending (you just have to read it), there was this one quote (out of so many quotable quotes from this book) that kind of made sense with what this crazy guy in the elevator was trying to convey to me:
" ... what I mean is that if we can change in all these really drastic physical ways, as clearly as we have, then how much easier it must be to change our minds." It wasn't quite the applause line I'd expected. "Over many years," I confessed anyway, "I tried not to change my mind. Yet it was changing all the time. And that, my fellow Formmates, was the way in which it never changed. My mental promiscuity was finally a form of virginity."
yeah. i'm still trying to get it too.
- i did pilates like two days ago and my 'core' still hurts. but my jeans are too big. very nice.
- i was in a bit of a funk at the beginning of this week, but things are a bit better now. whm and i are better.
- i just found out this week that i have veteran's day off (this friday). god bless the united states government. yeehaw!
- i lied; i called bbq back. and left a message.
i know there was more, but i have already forgotten. this was stuff that i was thinking on the train ride back home. if i only had internet and computer access on the train...
peace.
