33 Thoughts

1. Josh Leavitt finally started his blog.
2. I hate being sick. I feel like excrement today.
3. I hate money. But that’s probably just because I don’t have any.
4. Girls? Yes please… and also, no thank you.
5. I decided today that I’m going to write a book. It’s actually going to be a collaboration between several people, so I may be calling on you for help. No, not you. Yes… you.
6. I wish I was in California right now… and every day.
7. I’m considering selling my plasma. I should probably get well before I do, though. **EDIT – I’m referring here to the plasma inside my veins. Not some sweet display on witch to enjoy moving pictures. I don’t have one of those. Did I mention I don’t have any money?**
8. I’m thinking about starting a consulting firm. I mean, I don’t have any real experience or credibility but I’ve got lots of opinions. Now I just need to convince somebody to pay me for them.
9. I’m a hungry hungry hippo.
10. I wish I enjoyed math more than I do.
11. The first question in all tech support calls – “Is your computer turned on?”
12. I like peanut butter filled pretzels.
13. I hate that I drink energy drinks on a regular basis.
14. Stupid people fascinate me.
15. Do you ever truly know someone? Completely? I don’t think you do. And yet, we consistently put our trust in people we don’t fully know.
16. Do we ever truly know ourselves? Completely? I don’t think we do.
17. I’m a violent sneezer, which is why I frequently hold my sneezes in. People make fun of me for that. But then, if I let my sneeze go, they get grossed out. Make up your mind.
18. Certain music reminds me of certain people… which, coincidentally, ruins some good music for me.
19. I’m a romantic at heart.
20. It’s unfortunate that the great majority of single people in my age group, myself included, are so jaded on relationships.
21. I think it’s amusing that the Combs family doesn’t really comment on each other’s blogs… even though we all have them, minus Father Combs. I’m trying to reverse that trend.
22. The thought occurred to me earlier this week that I should probably apply to BYU as well as the U. I don’t know why, since the thought of living in Provo repulses me. Though, that might just be one more self-loathing piece of the puzzle.
23. I, THE music elitist, have some guilty pleasure music. Music that I know sucks, but I enjoy listening to. I’m listening to some right now. That’s probably a full post itself.
24. We’re all hypocrites.
25. I don’t know how to wake board. I tried once, but couldn’t get up. I wish that I did, but the thought of trying to learn in front of people sounds pretty frustrating.
26. Bill and Ted’s Excellent Adventure was Keanu Reeves’ best film.
27. My Ex-wife has a fake Facebook profile in the Salt Lake City network under the name Allie Elmore. I’m assuming so she can keep tabs on me. I’ve known about this for quite some time. I considered making my profile private, but don’t really care. Hi Jess.
28. My father turns 60 next month. He’s my hero. I don’t know that I’ve ever told him that. I love and respect him more than I know how to express. I wish that I possessed so many of his attributes. He’s the most Christlike person that I know.
29. I love my family so much, but sometimes I wish that our relationships were more like they used to be.
30. I really miss Paul Granada. He had no idea how much he would be needed in the future.
31. I have a long list of issues with my generation.
32. Some days I feel like Paul Dano’s character Dwayne in Little Miss Sunshine.
33. I wish I got paid to write. I should probably become a better writer if that’s ever going to happen.
