asleep in the city


Like most I spend about 90% of my time trying to fake work. I sit at my desk and quickly close the internet and make sure that the windows are as small as possible reading one line of CNN at a time. I have recently gotten into watching TV on the internet and I have been slowly watching Arrested Development. This show is amazing and I think that my life parallels that of Job except I am not a magician nor do I ride a Segway. However, I am lazy and disrespectful of others and I really don't see a change coming anytime soon.
On my way home yesterday I fell into a real funk. It was strange because I just worked out and I was really depressed. The kind of depression that makes you walk slow with your head down and makes you want to just let everyone know you're not to be messed with right now. I attribute this to a couple of things: a) Emancipation from my car (due to legal and monetary reasons) b) Lack of sex this week (girlfriend is on vacay) c) My boring job. I need a vacation myself and I didn't realize this until my Indian lab partner asked me why I hadn't taken any time off to travel. Of course I would have if I didn't spend all my money from graduation on rent, beer, and cigarettes (temporary thing). So I have decided to take a trip at the end of the month to visit my brother in Boulder, Colorado which should prove interesting considering we argue all the time.
I saw Tropic Thunder before all you snitches, and I want to give my humble review. The movie is great. The writers saw the PC line and decided that they were going to drive a mile past acceptable humor. I think the fact they use the word "retard" is a great way to break from the stupid activism that is going on in this country. The plot was small, but good things come in small packages, unless its your dick. My favorite part of the movie was Robert Downy Jr., but Jack Black, McConaghay (wrong spelling), and Cruise make it worth while. Do yourself a favor and watch the best movie this summer (Fuck Dark Knight that shit was long and boring all the people that thought this movie was the best movie ever are smoking crack (King Snee)).
I promise y'all if crazy shit doesn't happen by Saturday, I will make it happen. More entries to come. Fuck Mt. Pleasant Blogs, hard to write about a shit hole.
