Ramblings
Well tonite's the night. Sopranos is back. What's it been? About 14 years? Feels it. I almost ruined it for myself. Apparently, HBO accidentally posted a recap of the entire episode before it even aired! I went to the site like a crazed maniac and read the first sentence, and by some force within that I conjured up I looked away and left the site. First epsiode, UNTAINTED BY ME.
This day has been a total waste for me, hungover like I haven't been in, well at least a couple of weeks. I'm too old for this shit, seriously. I don't bounce back the way I used to. I laid in bed for over 6 hours today and caught up with the TIVO action. Four episodes of "Boston Legal" that I've been stockpiling for just such an occasion. I always forget how much I like that show until I am watching it. I always had the hots for James Spader among many other 80's guys, eh hem Robert Downey jr.. Still hot even after years of tokin' the crack pipe.
So, you may be wondering what's up with the poem in my last post? I am not a big fan of poetry. Yeah it's true. I love to read, but poetry was never my thing. But I've been in this mood lately, I'm taking a class on Existentialism, and no, not because I'm into self mutilation, but because these things just fascinate the shit out of me. If you aren't familiar with Existentialism, in a nutshell, it's the Philosophy that deals with themes such as existence, and what it means to be a rational thinking being. Most people look at it as depressing, but I find it actually to be quite liberating and even cathartic. I know, suit me up for the straightjacket. Hence, the poem.
