So I am feeling very sluggish lately. I think I need to listen to some Grateful Dead and dance more or read the Tao again to get back online. I think I just made a reference to myself as if I were a computer ( Read more... )

I still cant get past the wonder of life. The idea that time swirls around the fabric of existence just blows my mind. cause and effect, especially. i just mean on a smal scale, things like gravity. where did this come from? well i was just thinking about my emotions and how incomprehensible it all is. but thats why i cling to the balance of the ( Read more... )

I was Cary's ( Read more... )

We ran across the room with our eyes closed, trying to put our hand down on a piece of paper without looking. It was odd how close everyone came when I would have ( Read more... )

I don't really feel like a title for this one yet. This is my bonus entry for the week since I logged in both acting classes. Ever since closing my livejournal down, I have kinda missed the feeling of organizing thoughts like this. I went back and read the postings from August, and I feel better about everything. I can see I did really well for the ( Read more... )
