On Guilt and Innocence


  • What in the fuck am I doing here? What kind of sick and twisted life did I fall into that would cause me to spend some of the best hours of my life in a cryptlike room full of cameras, hot lights and fearful politicians debating the guilt or innocence of Richard Milhous Nixon?"

    - Hunter S. Thompson, "The Great Shark Hunt"

    Here you will find a sometime humorous or pensive recounting of my daily life as well as occasionally my thoughts on current events, and whatever I'm reading, watching, or listening to lately. The title, if you haven't figured out, comes from the Hunter S. Thompson quote above and is something you may find me saying if I ever actually end up as a political journalist.

Spring Fever

Well, this week has been weird.

I spent most of Sunday helping Barry to design a website for Mark Twain's learning communities, and ultimately that project has started to take over my life. Then that night, my sister called and I found out that my parents were in a car accident. Though neither of them were severely hurt, my dad dislocated his elbow and they believe the car is probably totaled. Furthermore, the accident was my Dad's fault which means it's going to be expensive for us. Which also means that for awhile, we're only going to have one car, which means I really hope I can get a job in the commons or Belmar this summer, since only having one car is going to be ridiculous.

Anyway, in other news, I have lost my motivation to do anything. I didn't even go to classes today or get out of bed before two. It's spring and I just feel so scattered. My reading gets half done if I do it at all and I haven't been studying for tests and I just want to get out of here already.

Of course, at the same time, I'm really wondering what this summer is going to be like. It's going to be weird to be away from Columbia and my friends here for three months, but at the same time it may be weird just to be around people at home for three months. All of that may not matter anyway, as I plan on working myself to death at some restaurant so I don't have to play the "it's the end of the year and there's hardly any money in even my savings account" game.

And that, my friends, is how life's been going.
