The thing I wouldn’t talk about Friday isn’t happening.\u00a0 I don’t know how I really should feel about that.<\/p>\n
Yes, it seemed like it could be kinda awesome.<\/p>\n
Just after I got that, though, something else may have come through.<\/p>\n
At the same time, I am sorta getting in to what I’m doing.<\/p>\n
No complete crash towards the end of the afternoon.<\/p>\n
And interrupted by my wife phoning me to tell me she’s on her way home.\u00a0 I guess the racist fucks from Charlottesville are going to be rallying in DC this year.<\/p>\n
You can’t imagine the immensity of the fuck I’m not giving.<\/p>\n
I’m listgening to a recap of a Millennial’s weekend.<\/p>\n
I don’t even know what to say, other than maybe I’ve eaten that much avocado as she had that weekend in my entire life.<\/p>\n
Are you more likely to be swayed by logic or passion?<\/i><\/p>\n
Given what I’m listening to right now, it’s definitely the former.\u00a0 Ayn Rand made lots of somewhat compelling arguments about reason being what separates humans from common animals.<\/p>\n
Yes.<\/p>\n
At the same time, passion is also important.\u00a0 Caring about what you’re doing, doing something you think is important, makes you more likely to do whatever you’re doing well.<\/p>\n
I’ve been neglecting the things I think I do, even adequately, to try and sustain for a while.<\/p>\n
Why do I do that?\u00a0 Because I’m passionate about being able, despite my failing eyesight, to look at myself in a mirror.<\/p>\n
I don’t have any big regrets about what I’ve done.\u00a0 Maybe about some of the self abuse I inflicted on myself, sure.<\/p>\n
But I never have portrayed myself as something I’m not.<\/p>\n
Is that the battle between and logic?\u00a0 I don’t know.<\/p>\n
I could probably ramble on all night, but I”m not sure that’s at all worthwhile.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
