God I'm pumped.
All of my most basic of human needs are currently being met: loneliness, hunger, remorse, self esteem, vengeance, karma, lust, sloth (not to get too biblical) you name it.
First and foremost, my senior year, and therefore my second job, begins in less than a week. So my life ratio is about to kick over to approximately 85% wicked effing busy in no time: something that makes me "Oh So Happy". As you've probably read from past entries, I like being busy because of how it streamlines my life: no ramping up and then coasting... For me, it also makes social interaction less easily accessible and therefore higher in intrinsic value.
Secondly, my car just went boom... a minor but debilitating injury, totally justifying any greedy and/or selfish motives tied to buying a new car, which is conveniently happening the day before school starts. I love when things mesh like that. Plus, its a sweet deal, and when you guys see this thing, you're going to want to don some black wayfarers and a fedora.
Thirdly, and most like a clip from High Fidelity, over the last few weeks several past relationships, both intimate in nature and not, have come to pass. That "final goodbye and good luck", as J.C. & the Boss call it, has instantly simplified my life and allowed me to focus on more important things...
"Alison married Kevin! I am fine now! Married her junior high school sweetheart: kissed me on the bench, kissed Kevin on the bench - MARRIED Kevin. This is great! This has got nothing to do with me! This is fate, this is destiny; it is beyond my control, beyond my fault. I love this!"
