Sometimes revelations can be the most amazing thing. That “ah-ha” moment that leads you out of something, whether it be your situation or your thoughts or your environment. Other times… they knock you over, like having a brick thrown at your stomach and you can’t catch your breath and your heart is beating so hard that you think people may be able to see it. I had one of those this morning. Not the best way to start the morning. It’s like I realized that so many things that I thought were real and honest may not be. And even I, who analyze and pick apart, don’t always notice.

On another note, I dig Wil Wheaton’s blog: http://www.wilwheaton.net/
His writing style is real and sarcastic and up front. Nice, nice. I like.

Woke up to a cool breeze drifting through my windows. Hiding from the chill under my thick blanket felt wonderfully cozy, though I knew I had to wake up. Redeeming quality of having to wake up early – it’s Friday. Ahhh. At long last.

Had a great drive to work, listening to Polyphonic Spree (can’t not smile when listening to that) and catching an interview with a German filmmaker Werner Herzog, quite an interesting guy, who has a new film about a man who lives up in Alaska with the grizzlies. He enjoys living with grizzlies to living in the world of people and the animals have his life meaning and purpose. Will have to check that out once it’s released.

Now, drinking a delicious big cup of coffee, listening to Bob Marley, catching up on e-mail and enjoying the fact that I haven’t encountered any computer problems yet. Though it’s still early, it’s a sweet relief.

Enjoy the day. Enjoy the weekend. Enjoy the summer breezes and warm sun. Enjoy the thunderstorms that pound through, dropping luscious rain that makes the earth smell like life and rattles your insides making you feel more alive than usual. Enjoy the company of those who make your life interesting and difficult and fun and exciting.
