Here’s What I Want To Know

Filed under: Angst,Dreams,Inspiration,Swill,Things Not To Tell My Husband,Work — superfluosity @ 9:48 pm

If I could have my dream life, how would it be different from the life I have now?

I feel sometimes that my life isn’t really going anywhere or I’m not doing well or I wonder if my husband will ever be less annoying, but if I could dream up some perfect life, what would that consist of?

I would still want to work, maybe even at the same place. My job, at times, is damn near ideal for me. But not always. It can be a grind, and it can be hectic and creates stress which contributes to what sometimes seems overall quite a thankless life.

Speaking of thankless, there are many times my husband seems to assign considerably more value to his time (even though he doesn’t have a full-time gig right now) than to my time (even though I work the productive American’s “40 or more” a week and commute much further than he did even when he was working full-time at the office.

Sometimes he is an arrogant prick, in fact, but really would I want the sort of husband that wasn’t strong-willed and confident? Maybe, maybe not. A good thing is a good thing but too much of a good thing is what lines therapists’ pockets.

Really my life isn’t bad. Quite often I feel trapped but if it turns out where you’re trapped isn’t all that bad, then… that’s good. Some people might even call that security. I wish I had more choices, but then again when you boil it down am I not simply living with the results of my own choices?

Still I wonder a lot, is this as good as it’s going to get? And someday will I look back and now and think, “man that was awesome, comparatively life just sucks since then”?

Whoa

I think I’m in love with WordPress.

It’s fuckin’ SWEET. Posts are instant, not 5 or 10 minutes later or the next day like on Blogger. I love Blogger, I love that it’s simple and it’s free. But I don’t love how hard it is to edit and publish and how long it takes and how often the servers freak out.

Plus, WordPress has all these features, like categories and all kinds of stuff I haven’t even tried out yet.

Dammit, I just remembered I still don’t have a superfluosity category.

Perhaps I will just file this under Swill for the moment, even though there is no mention whatsoever of Republicans.

Then I will attempt to ascertain whether categories can be adjusted after posting. I am quite confident they can, because from everything I have seen, WordPress is awesome.

Yeah, baby, you see that? now it’s in superfluosity too. I think I might just go change the other one too, just to exercise my category-switching prowess. Oh yeah. I’m that good.

superfluosity

Filed under: Swill — admin @ 5:17 am

this link filled in on the template: superfluosity

i think this is a test of the “blog this!” link beside the search button. i thought i knew what it was, but now that i see the editing window, i’m not so sure. ah well, here goes nothin’.

sometimes I wonder

Filed under: Swill — admin @ 5:09 am

why it is that I can open the pantry to get out a box of cereal, glance
a package of “Hidden Valley Ranch” and perceive it as “Hidden Death Ranch”

proud moments in traffic

Filed under: Swill — admin @ 5:37 pm

This morning, people were clumping together and blocking me from getting

to the wide open roadway just beyond them, you know, with that rolling

blockade thing they do in those interstate delta formations… And being

highly annoyed with the behavior, I exclaimed, “Out of my way, you butt

monkeys!” and immediately felt very proud of myself for having such a

phrase roll off my tongue like that right when I needed it.

Later on during the same commute, some bonehead changed lanes right in

front of me. Well, that’s too kind, really. He wasn’t QUITE in front of

me and if I hadn’t started swerving and slowing down as soon as he

started moving toward me it would have been ugly. So as soon as I

finished swerving and had a hand available I of course hit the horn

(which made its usual puny little “eeep”), flipped the guy off, and

called him an ass hat.

All in all a very good day in traffic epithet-hurling.

Kind of makes you proud to be an American, doesn’t it?

sometimes…

Filed under: Swill — admin @ 8:41 pm

i think i should call this “superblah” instead of superblog… not that
the term superblog is shown anywhere on screen anyway.

further reinforcing the concept of superfluosity. i know, i know,
that’s not even a word. the word meaning “state of being superfluous”
(or however it really should be defined) is superfluousness. that extra
u kind freaks me out though. although i suppose i could look into that
domain name if it really seemed important. but it doesn’t.

delete this post

or don’t, but it’s only a test to see if changing the blog-to address
thingy worked…

or maybe it is really just a weak attempt to continue procrastinating
and not do any work today…

weirdness

Filed under: Swill — admin @ 10:05 am

OK, so why is it that stuff i sent to my blog at 10:31 showed up sooner
than stuff I sent at 10:27?

well, anyway, at least it got there.

i think in the past hour i’ve more than doubled my blog content.
unfortunately, now i have to do some work and other unpleasant things
like that.

(pooey) :-P

what other people are saying

Filed under: Swill — admin @ 9:43 am

no, not about me, or anything related to me.

just some random blogs i came across with the cool little “next blog”

button…

http://wynterstoner.blogspot.com

http://cynicalintellect.blogspot.com

http://radishking.blogspot.com/

http://observer42.blogspot.com/

and finally, http://fansiablog.blogspot.com/ (i can’t read anything

i hope the links work. i didn’t actually try them out in the middle of

nowhere all by themselves yet.

no apathy here!

bloginality test

Filed under: Swill — admin @ 8:43 am

I thought I was an INTJ based on the “Do What You Are” book. Yes, I actually have the actual book, and even took the tests years ago… but that was way far back and possibly obscured by the mists of time and of course by the fading vision of my aging eyes…


My Bloginality is ISTJ!!!

life can be annoying

Filed under: Swill — admin @ 3:58 pm

i don’t want to be all whiny, but, really, that’s what i wanted to start
blogging for… basically, i see my blog as a place to whine without
interruption and without concern for who might read it and get their
feelings hurt. i don’t want to be concerned about their feelings before
my feelings. this is my “i need to hash out how *i* feel” place.

so anyway, life can be very annoying.

i’m supposed to be studying, but instead i am doing a pile of work that
other people did previously, but screwed up. these are the people who
are “helping” me so i will be able to take some time to study. part of
that scheme was for me to be off every friday for the next month or so,
but yesterday i worked about 2 hours at home, drove 40 minutes to work,
then worked 5 hours at the office, then brought a big pile of work home
to hack away at over the weekend, which of course i am also supposed to
be using to study.

i don’t want this freaking test to become the bane of my existence. i
don’t want my job to be the bane of my existence either. actually, lots
of things are competing very strongly to be the bane of my existence. i
wonder, can a person have multiple banes of existence?

i think i can, and i think i am closing in on perfecting the technique.
