A Conversation I had with my friend Kyle...
| Me: | I love this song (Dream On - Aerosmith) |
| Kyle: | Steven Tyler wrote this song when he was 17 and it's amazing. I'm 23 and have done nothing. Really puts your life in perspective. |
| Me: | Wow! |
Oh, how I wish....
I really wish life was like a movie. All problems no matter how small (the world being destroyed by aliens or asteroids) or how big (losing a pet or having a crazy alcoholic parent/sibling/significant other). How great would it be if all your problems could be solved in a short amount of time (2 hours or less) in a humorous and some times dramatic fashion, but always with you prevailing in the end. What more could a person ask for?
So let’s say my life was going to be a movie, well then currently I would have to choose “Confessions of a Shopaholic.” It seems to the closest thing to my current situation out there. Granted, I’m not a Journalist and I’m not a shopaholic, but to make things interesting enough to actually be made into a movie details have to be changed, so shopaholic it is. Anyways, if this were my “life model,” we’ll call it, then I should be able to sell all my stuff and by doing so make more than enough to pay off all my debt and kick my shopping habit for good. Plus I’d get to make out with super delicious Hugh Dancy, who, despite all my lying and various faults, would love me no matter what and give me a job at his brand-spanking-new communications company.
If only life could be so easy. The only thing of value I own is my computer which I am sure really isn’t worth anything any more, although it is in good condition, but I can’t sell my computer. I can’t live without it. I need it! Next item(s) up for bid would be my DVD’s because well…it’s pretty extensive and if you added up all the money I spent on creating it, well, it took a good chunk of change to get it to where it is now. But no one is going to buy my movies, because most of them are old and you can buy them pretty much anywhere brand new for 5 bucks. Obviously, that’s not going to make me any money. Now that I’ve run out of options for things I can sell, that leaves me still in a horrible state and my dream guy still hasn’t shown up!
Looks like I’m S.O.L. right now. Maybe someone will make a true to life movie about how people become completely F’ed in the A trying to pursue their dreams and then…
Testing out my sweet new phone
So yesterday I got a new phone, and it’s the first time I’ve ever had internet on my cell. Eventhough it is completely unessecery, I love it!
