In boot camp with Joker and Gomer Pyle, my nickname was Complainy. I never figured out why, but I sure didn't like boot camp. I could tell you about it...
I have this tremendous bad habit of being indiscriminate with how I pee. It's usually in the bathrooms of people I respect and those people are usually women. When I write indiscriminate, I mean accidentally missing, like maybe hitting a wall, but usually dribbling near the toilet. I did this once recently in Philadelphia. I had no idea how far I was from the toilet.
Fellas? Can you support me on this? I'm not the only one in the world with horrendous aim only sometimes, right?
I can't be. I won't be. I won't have it.
And it's just women I respect.
I hope that wasn't too personal. I'm apparently all about oversharing, of late. I didn't realize I did this. I met a friend of a friend and chewed the fat for hours and I decided that a reference to Taxi Cab Confessions was enough to explain some of my sexual history. No, Joel, that is not how we interact.
"I shouldn't have said that, right?"
"No," my friend accepted. "You probably shouldn't have."
I wrote it off as both of them being ignorant. That's the attitude!
I just finished Dune (can we underline on Blogspot?). It was a heckuva read, but I finished it, with all its 'philosophical vistas' and put it down and immediately stopped caring. I didn't want to read the other books; I didn't have time, I decided. It was a great read, though.
I just started Nine Stories by J.D. Salinger. I'm loving it, so far. It's super ironic that there are only three stories in the book. How silly, right?!
Relatedly, I recommend all of the films that have come out in the last two months as they are all fantastic. I've seen them all.
Classes start tomorrow at noon.
How are you?
