Brilliance

Here is what sounds like a really, really, REALLY smart idea:

Drilling down to the center of the earth.

Right? Amazing.

Today

It is absolutely gorgeous in the city today. I took a long walk during lunch to soak in the sun and get some fresh air. I was reminded of why I actually do love this city. I even got a piece of chocolate from a guy handing it out. That's right, I took candy from a stranger. It was delicious.

Oscars, Shmoscars

Things I have become disenchanted with due to age, realization of the truth and/or bitterness:

-The self-contratulatory, drama bloated Oscars
-My advantage-taking, under-paying Job
-Finding the missing piece
-My own boring cynicism

Things that still make me smile like a child and fill me with joy:

-A warm chocolate chip cookie
-Making travel plans to go to Thailand
-An unexpected genuine compliment
-Finishing an art project

Things that make me go hmmmm.

-Women who insist on using the stall next to mine in the ladies when all the rest are unoccupied
-I actually knew how to do calculus once
-An expanding Universe with different solar systems?
-People who maintain their job despite clearly being unaware of how to do it

Announcement Update

I receive an amazing amount of junk mail trying to sell me viagra. Is the universe trying to tell me something? Or maybe a side effect of viagra is that it makes the hair of your eyebrows stay the same color. That is to say, if you took viagra you wouldn't wake up one day and have to pluck one lone white eyebrow hair.
I'll take a few cases.
sigh.
