Books Friends Jobs Ego Beatings

I finished The Divine Invasion and the end made it worth the slogging beginning. It's a very good Gnostic parable set in a very typical sci-fi format. I also finished Skinny Legs and All, and I think it's my favorite Robbins book so far. I'm about half way through that Bukowski book and while I love him, he tends to be quite depressing. He frazzles my aristocratic hairs and shines a massive halogen lamp on the poor past I'd rather forget. Bastard. THE HEART IS A LONELY HUNTER.

My dearest friend and co-author, the other half of the infamous Parker J. Hood, had arrived quite unexpectedly on my doorstep and is staying for a few days. This is a pleasant surprise since he lives nearly 500 miles away and I've only seen him once in the past two years. He's one of the few people who I can be completely myself around and talk about anything that rambles through my skull. Believe it or not, I censor myself profusely around most people. Only those close and dear get the unfiltered Jeremy and those are the clichéd few and far between.

I won't be getting the estimating job any time soon, so I'd best start looking for something else. Oh yeah, there IS nothing else. Fuck a duck. That's gross. No, that's fowl. Ha-ha. Looks like I'd best start sending out my writing. This job thing just isn't my cup of cake, my piece of tea. How does one get a job working for the Weekly World News? I could SO be a journalist for that massively popular publication. Fuck yeah, pay up bitches!

I think I'm going to post a tell-me-what-you-dislike-about-me MEME in the near future. Get your gears chuggin', the ol' brain a churnin' cuz I'm feelin' a bit masochistic. Booyah.

If you do.. you have to include a "what you like about me" part as well! :)

Do I HAVE to? I don't know if I want my ego stroked like that. But it would make sense to keep it balanced. Hmmm....

Oh fine. But only because you're so hardcore and I'm scared of that big stick ;)

sounds to me like you're feeling a little wired.

Nah, I was actually pretty calm.
