Update 62: A head full of baggage.

July 25th, 2007 by The Reverend Menagerie

I wonder if it’s a summer thing. It gets hot, I lose ambition.

That’s not entirely true, it’s also that in summer I tend to do more, and have more shit dumped on me. So the frivolous things tend to fall by the wayside, like here, and the sister blog, and a few net games.

In favor of real life, or as real as mine is.

Faith No More - We Care A Lot

Yes, that’s the song from the Discovery Channel’s “Dirty Jobs”. It’s been playing on my iPod a lot lately. The Transformers reference makes me smile.

I’m not attempting to blame anyone for my summer doldrums, nor give excuses on why I don’t update as frequently. Summer tends to be harder for me. That’s it.

Where I live, currently in Southestern PA, we get heat and humidity, and air conditioning can only do so much.

Plus, I’m not a small person, so sweat happens. I’m just glad I don’t smoke. It’s hard enough to breathe some days.

Bob Mould - First Drag Of The Day

There are a lot of things that I think about, when it’s too hot to move and ambition runs very low. I think of my past, the marriage and ultimate demise thereof. I think of back in high school, and how much easier it was.

I think about my current job, and how I like it, but can really do without one particular client.

I think about my girlfriend, and know that she’s keeping me from visiting the aforementioned ex-wife with a shotgun. (I brood on what my ex-wife is doing regarding my daughter. I get angry, and then my girlfriend tries to help me calm down. She’s good at that.)

Moby - Love Hole

No, that’s not a sex joke. It’s just another song I’ve been listening to a lot. Non-album track from the “Come On Baby” EP.

I seem to be repeating a lot of things from past entries. Hrm. Time to end with a final two songs for this entry then.

Oingo Boingo - Who Do You Want To Be?

The White Stripes - You Don’t Know What Love Is (You Just Do As You’re Told)

See you eventually….
