Although this is currently a personal diary, I hope this blog will eventually become more of an online "coffee shop" where amateur or aspiring musicians/artists/writers can share ideas and offer constructive criticism.

Sigh...

Sorry about the previous post. Therapy.

Well, a month off from work, and after one week I'm back on the brink of a nervous breakdown. It's not just my job getting to me - It's a lot of things. Maybe stability and sanity aren't for everyone...

Actually, the work environment is rather entertaining. They are doing renovations on the building I work while we are working in it. It's looks like a bomb went off in it - Huge holes in the walls, doors missing, debris everywhere. And the power and fires alarms go off daily - We've learned to ignore them now. Ain't safety great?

But other than work, health, relationships, money, my internet connection, and my outlook on life, things are going just swell!

Tonight, I'm a little introspective. I'm listening to an album (well, actually CD) I haven't heard in years: The Cars' "Panorama" (1980). It reminds me of an unrequited love that I obsessed over for years and years. Even though it's behind me now, the feelings are still there - Just muted and resigned to the pile of other unrealized dreams. Join the crowd, huh?

Oh well... It could be worse. I might not be a precious little flower. I might not grow in the sunlight.

All these "female teacher caught having an affair with male students" stories are really getting to me too. Without going into detail, there are other memories that I thought were behind me too. What movie had the line, "You can forget your past, but your past won't forget you?"

Well, it's after midnight and I have to be up by 6am. So I will write more later, IF I can get back online again. Stay safe, whoever you are!

Peace Out.
