I think Mike would like it if I called him an OpenDiary demi-god. That being said, I'm a mere mortal with a tendency to go places when I've got the time. I live in the campus area which everyone says is so far away from everything. In the big scheme of things, it's not. I can go anywhere I want in a reasonable amount of time - from my place at the northmost point to the complex at the southmost point takes about 20 minutes walk, and 10 minutes of a bus ride. Phhh. That's nothing. I prove it by spending my free time on foot eating at the cafeteria farthest from my home, and visiting friends whose locations are known to me - on or off-campus. Politics makes me leery. Anger and being angry scares me. Conformity pisses me off. Labels confuse me, because people are too complicated to be any one thing besides human. I now appreciate getting a good job with a good salary because of how much I spent last year and how much I have (or don't have) this year. Thrift stores make me happy, especially if I can get a good pair of jeans (Calvin Klein, no less!) for a dollar and a quarter. Food is good in small doses, spread evenly through the day. Insomniac tendencies are a way of life for me now, so much that I slipped back into them immediately after spending the major part of my vacation time sleeping. Music is the best thing you can carry with you, with or without an iPod or a CD player or *gasp* a Walkman. Love is great, as long as it's realistic. Communication, in whatever form, is essential, but I find it to be very confusing in written format due to emotional lack in most cases. With enough clarity, though, sarcasm will be understood and snickered at. That's enough for now.
