Waking The Dead

wow.

so the other day, i realized i still had this blog, and that while i used it all last summer (summer of 2008), i kind of stopped once the fall/winter rolled around. there was a brief attempt in january of this year to revive it, which lasted all but three days.

good job, me.

so now here we are, in september, and i'm sitting at my desk at work, thinking that maybe reviving this thing is a good idea.

then again, maybe it isn't. i guess we'll find out, won't we?

what on earth would i even use this platform for? in the past, i used it to complain about a lot of things. like when i was unemployed. or when i was working at the bookstore and complained about customers. i've gone ahead and deleted all of the old posts from here, because i'm sure they would be pretty painful for me to re-read. so eventually, this will be filled with all new, complainy posts about whatever.

since january, or hell, even since last year, a lot of things are different for me. which i will probably get to later. i will say, for now at least, that one reason to bring this stupid thing backs i because i've noticed that the two people that i graduated with in college, from our department, have slick, fancy websites. and for the most part, they are using their degrees that we all earned together back in the first half of this decade (jesus i'm old) and they are probably using any subsequent degrees that they have earned in the latter half of this decade.

i, however, am not.

when i was still working at the youth center, there were a few choice kids who liked to point out how useless my degree is. it's always fun to have a self-deprecating laugh at what thousands of dollars and four years of a life have amounted to. i'll be the first to admit it-- i may have made a mistake with the field i majored in.

again, as i said, i am at my desk right now-- at work. which means i should probably do some work.

stay tuned, folks. there will, hopefully, be more to come.
