Learning from failure
‘Tis better to have loved and lost
Than never to have loved at all.
-Â Â Â Alfred Lord Tennyson
There is a time in my life when I would have said that this quote is just one big nasty lie. This is probably because no one explained to me that even in failed relationships, you learn a great deal about life and who you are. Read more

Slacker blogging
I think everyone quit reading my blog a year ago when I quit updating as frequently. I wish I had more time to create entertaining reading material for the select few loyal readers that remain. My blog is a weird tool for me. It allows me to purge the thoughts in my head no matter how bizarre they might be. I am able to express some of what goes on in my head without a filter. I figure if people do not like what I have to say, then they do not have to read it.
Sometimes I write to amuse. Other times I get personal. It is up to you whether or not you choose to read what goes on in the mind of your beloved insomniac.

Dating for morons
It is amazing that two people actually get together at all. There are so many variables that go into forming connections with people that I sometimes wonder if it is worth it at all. Why do we put ourselves through torture? Help me understand … are relationships supposed to be difficult? Or, is everything supposed to magically fall into place? I suppose I have always believed in the latter, but I am starting to rethink my original theory. Am I now being more realistic or more naĂ¯ve? You tell me … I am far from an expert on this particular topic. I need to make 5,000 more mistakes before I qualify for that. Read more

Check your luggage and your drool
During my recent travels to North Carolina, I caught myself snoozing on my flight. I rudely claimed the last available aisle seat and slept the entire flight. In fact, my eyes were closed before I hit my seat.
I am one of those people … Read more

The clock is ticking
The past, the present, the future … isn’t time just relative? As humans, we place so much emphasis on protecting ourselves from failure and pain that we sometimes forget that it is okay to fall down the rabbit hole. It is okay to get lost for a minute. Instead we get stuck in the moment analyzing what went wrong in our past, worrying about how that affects our future and never fully living in the present.
Our efforts to protect ourselves from hurt can actually have the complete opposite effect. We hurt ourselves more by taking moments of happiness for granted. As much as I hate to give credit to the gym teacher or the pedophile in “Donnie Darko,” sometimes fear really is the source of all evil. It is sad how we allow ourselves to crumble over such stupidity.

William Blake lives on
I am not exactly what you would call the religious type. I am spiritual. I love the unknown. I thrive on mystery and imagination. I drink from the cup of existence. I live, I breath, I am.
Life is a line without an end … a circle. Read more

Without words
I recently had an experience that was so intense that I am unable to describe it in words. Words could never give the experience … visually or spiritually … the justice that it deserves.
Stuck inside my head …
When I see something so beautiful and extraordinary, I want to share it with the world. I want to weave a story that sucks a person into my imaginary universe. However, each attempt I make at trying to describe the experience, I water down the sheer beauty of the moment. Read more

Tired of sloppy, slimey eggs
For those of you who follow my blog, you are well aware of the fact that I find most humans to be stupid and lazy. I also do not think that everyone is deserving of children and should be sterilized. Here is yet another great case to support my opinion.

Fan tribute to The Zombie Survival Guide
Take out your copy of “The Zombie Survival Guide” and get ready for the zombie apocalypse with the five clowns in this video. These guys are definitely not the world’s most brilliant specimens, but they do have what it takes to overcome the walking dead. I certainly would let them protect me! Would you?
Do you know where your machine gun is?
This video is hilarious! These guys did a really nice job with this work of fan fiction. I love it!
