It's Saturday. I return in triumph. I started unpacking late, but I did manage to finish most everything except clothes. Close enough. I'm going to hit the hay now because I've got to wake up around 8 in the morning to be ready to leave here around 9 for the State Championships. Goodnight, you.
Side note: My Rock Band drumming skills are steadily climbing. I'm officially a HARD difficulty level drummer.

making pacts
It's Friday. I'm making a pact with myself to unpack later. I'll spend tomorrow at the Track and Field State Championships, a spectator. To be honest, I am looking forward to the meet. Of my own volition, I have spent the majority of my time indoors since I came home, and I could use tomorrow as an opportunity to be reacquainted with fresh air and open spaces.
For every sensation, I seem always to find that I reach some threshold or maximum tolerance level. e.g. I have a relatively low tolerance for pain, and I am not often moved by other people. When I am moved, I am deeply moved. I've recently taken to getting emotional when I watch a good film. If it weren't for movies, I might not know that I am compassionate. The mundane doesn't seem to excite me very often. And I can never fake excitement very well. But again, when I am excited, I am, to put it plainly, bursting with excitement. The point here is just to put down some thoughts to get this thing rolling. I'd like this to be a dedicated space for my thoughts, where you, good reader, are welcome to know what I know. I plan to return either in triumph or disappointment. The goal: to have unpacked my stuff by midnight tonight, at which point I will be here to make a note of it. (Friday, May 23, 2008: 12:30 p.m.)
