First of many thoughts

So why can't I blog?

First of all, I'm not the most computer savvy person you met. The idea of finding this website again so that I may even make a second post is already making me sweat. Not to mention my computer's limitations itself - it needs a doctor, but my fear is that this guy will be diagnosed with a terminal illness. "I'm sorry, but the news is not good. I give him six months, maybe seven, considering his age and resilience." Or worse, the doctors will have to kill it entirely, wipe his memory clean, and give me back an empty shell: a vegetable to rebuild. That may be a necessary side effect, but do I really want to spend months refilling my music library. And can I even find my Charlotte Rae CD again?



Secondly, do I really have the tenacity to upkeep this responsibility? I have tens, nay hundreds, of projects begun and unfinished. I know my weaknesses: commitment is right up there with money management. And accessorizing.

And time. While I am not the busiest person I know, I am active, and on a flex schedule, so my days vary. And I am a person of structure. Well, ideally. And, however vain it might be, my primary goal is to build myself physically, not rant. I do that without blogging, anyway. I want to look more like John Cena
than John McCain (I can't bring myself to hunt down photos of that asshole.)
For those of surfing the web for cruising purposes, I actually don't look like either. I'm much hotter.

BUT, I do like to write - that's a big plus. And I am rather witty, if I do say so myself. And just full of joie de vivre.

I live in New York - Queens. I work as a supervisor for a major tools/hardware store. I won't say the name of the store, but it sounds like Pome Lepot. It's not my career, just a job. Pays the bills, whatever.

When I'm not working, I am obsessed with music and plays. (Do see 'Celebrity Autobiography' on 72nd Street. Do see 'Spring Awakening' before it closes January 18.) I also read a lot - currently reading "Lamb" by Christopher Moore and "A Lion Among Men" by Gregory Maguire.

Turn ons: Creativity, unconventionality, random acts suddenly displaying meaning (the movies "Babel" and "Magnolia" exemplify this. Or meeting someone seemingly arbitrarily but ends up having a profound effect.) Saulo Pineyro, Ann Beaver-Witting, Molly McNett, Don Regal, Ann Jennings, Caryn Brieschke, Steve Rose, and all the other people I haven't seen in eons, but are still my dear friends. Dogs.

Turn offs: Spitting in public, bad manners, organized religion, animal abuse, famine (ewwww!). Bushes. Men that whoop and belittle women in the street (has anyone ever gotten lucky from that behavior?) Gay men never act that way in public, so straight guys - follow the lead. You already took shaved heads, tattoos, metrosexuality and piercings from us. Why not take decentness?

Anyone whp reads this, thanx! Anyone who doesn't, go to hell.
