Small steps. Giant leaps.
music: Cornered, the boy kicked out at the world. The world kicked back, a lot fucking harder.
mood: Get it together, boy.
Today was a busy day, but I managed to accomplish some small, personal tasks. The first being the creation of a temporary splash page (www.vklj.net). In keeping with the spirit of item number 6 of the July 27th blog entry, I've posted one of my favorite pictures of myself. That sounds a bit narcissistic, but it's the truth. Simpler times, me and my chicken gun.
I also called one of my best friends in NYC, Danilanh, who helped me "talk things out." She made a good point about keeping up with appearances, so I decided to cross 2 more items off the to-do-list - shave and 200 crunches.
It's about 10:40 pm and I'm ready for some sleep. Tomorrow is "spirit day" at work and my co-worker has branded it "band t-shirt day." So I'll be busting out the Pavement t-shirt, which will then require me to explain to both the kids and adults who the hell they were. "They had this hit 'Cut Your Hair' and if you heard it, you'd probably recognize it, blah, blah, blah." I could make it all a bit easier by wearing my Dave Matthews Band t-shirt, but, oh wait I don't own a DMB t-shirt, because I can't stand that stuff. No offense to white people.
Last thing - I saw Bad News Bears with Doldermite Thursday night. I'll be posting a review sooner than later. Expect some ranting about childhood, my experiences with the great game (or lack of), and some thoughts about fatherhood.
Good night and take care of yourselves.
