My life in four paragraphs!

I'm happy to say that after just over two months, the numbness in my face has localized itself to a tiny point below my left nostril, so now if a big burly drunk from Portage decides to pounce and sucker-poke me in just the right place, I might not feel it!

This summer I am returning to camp despite the atrocities (some which I stand behind, some which I regret) committed by your truly last time around. Have I learned from my mistakes, have I grown into an adult? Should a major corporation attempt to use camp as a giant billboard for their soulless product, will I stand back and not interfere? Only time will tell.

Still haven't applied for school. My lack of motivation in that department stems from my awareness that I don't plan on pursuing education as a mean to an end, but rather as a way to meet people and expose myself to others ideas.

My brother is in Arizona, training to be the best kayaker in the world. Soon my parents will join him, and it will be big sis and I running the big pink. And if you don't know what that means I promise it's not gross. What this means is an enormous pileup of mail, dirty dishes, dirty laundry, cat litter, crud and vomit . . . ladies.

All for now

As we set out upon this sea of words, these fluid sentences.../anti-bucket list

Basically I'm a poor writer. I guess I don't have an outlet for conventional writing, and therefore I get lazy while writing stories or articles, and I keep waiting to copy-paste the chorus, throw in some oohs and aahs and call it a day. This only works for Chuck Palahniuk. Nobody likes a quitter, (and nobody quits a biker) so I guess I'll use this tool to hone my proverbial skills.

I was thinking about bucket lists. I'd like to do the opposite. I don't care about accomplishments, I want to be dead before these events:

  1. My own baldness
  2. The Bratz/Hannah Montana generation enters politics
  3. Prohibition 2.0
  4. Chris' death (I mean come on)
  5. My funeral (because they wouldn't save me a seat)
  6. Earth enters a state of peaceful coexistence and understanding (because it will have been due to my own sacrifice and martyr-ism, just watch)
  7. The Rolling Stones die. I swear those guys are just gonna keep on truckin'
  8. Robot marital aids become widely used (So that they can say I was doing it before it was mainstream)
  9. We find a viable solution to overpopulation (I just don't want to know, OK?)
  10. Jazz music becomes an urban legend (I'm guessing 2150)
More to come
