I AM boring
I've been perusing some of my old entries and compared them to some of my peers' blogs and realized something: my blog lacks a lot of updates on my day-to-day affairs. And this in turn makes it seem kinda dull.
The truth of the matter is, nothing really happens to me. I usually have to go out and find something to happen to me - hence the lack of reporting about what is going on. I'm being completely honest when I answer the "what's up" question with "nothing much".
For example, yesterday's events went something like this:
7 am: woke up, helped steph get ready for work
8 am: played halo online with spot
9 am: left for work
2 pm: ate lunch with co-workers. co-workers discussed celebrity gossip. I took a nap instead.
6 pm: left for work. Thought about going to Ranch 99, but the traffic was so bad I came home instead
6:30 pm: came home. Home was dark. And cold. Turned on fireplace, changed out of work clothes, turned on lights and played on Forza Motorsports on the Xbox.
7:30: Taryn came home. Played Halo with her.
8:30: started cooking
9 pm: steph came home, ate dinner with her.
10 pm: went to bed.
Hmmm... maybe my perceptions of "interesting" is different from others. I suppose others might make an entry about playing Halo with a roommate who *never* plays video games, or about how I feel bad for my girlfriend working till 9 pm. Or maybe even about the horrid traffic on San Diego freeways.
In any case not much to talk about.

Yesterday was terribly dull.
It really is the eye of the beholder, kids. For instance, yesterday I woke up in the middle of the night after having a dream that I shit all over my bed. What a scary feeling to wake up to! Luckily, everything was dry. I wonder what those dream analyzer books say about that. I walked through Golden Gate Park, which is becoming a habit of mine. I read a story recently about this Indian dude who was in need of money. A stranger lent it to him. When the dude tried to pay him back, he said, "No. From now on, you are indebted to strangers who come to you in need." So, as I was walking through Golden Gate Park, I saw many people who looked like they were in need. I did not help them because they did not ask for my help. But for the first time in my life, I was wishing that they would ask. etc. etc. etc. Interesting things are happening to everyone all the time...it's all about what you consider interesting...some days you just have to look a little harder. Or maybe I'm just being an ass. That's usually the case.
sounds a lot like my day too. the curse of the working man i'd say. and as for boring posts i wouldn't be concerned about that. on my fairly large list of blogs i always leave yours for last because although it might not be jam-packed with action it's always quirky and interesting; exactly the reason i asked you to start one in the first place. it's just so delightfully obi, so don't you dare change it! ps: the guy who played leto ii in children of dune is mr. tumnus in narnia. took me forever to figure that out and thought you'd be the only one to actually appreciate it.
