Bienvenue

Began my day with intent of penning something witty, something fitting of the black-out drunk front that ushered in the new year, a glitzy tale of self-deprecating anecdotes and mischeviously unkind observations... something to give voice to the garden variety New Year's Eve soiree: champagne, hors d'oevres, "sink the biz," someone pouring champagne out the second story window... tu sais.

Walk home this morning amidst some sort of run/walk/5K/who knows with friendly police officers waving runners through intersections and me in my slutty leftovers parading home in the drizzle. You'll have that. The streets were empty, bereft of the revelrous merrimakers of the night before and not without their own sense of dreary loneliness. I passed one girl walking, wearing (unlike me) an outfit she had specially selected for her morning tasks. I smiled at her and she bashfully glanced the other direction. I must have been a sight.

Perhaps in a subconcious effort to atone for my evening engagements, I spent most of today catching up on recent cinema releases, all of which, I'll have you know, were absolutely wrenching. Zooey, Tsotsi, and An Inconvenient Truth rounded out the afternoon, and the possibility for V for Vendetta approaches while I turn my attention to my heaping laundry basket. Mmmmhmmm. Lighthearted, delightful fare.

Which brings me to my next thought: those responsible for writing the synopsis/teasers found on the back of dvd cases should be brought to swift and immediate justice for crimes against language. If I read anything along the lines of "triumph of the human heart/courage/compassion" or "a touching tale of redemption/love/sacrifice" again I may lose control and run screaming into the nearest supermarket. I dare someone to write actual truth and leave out any mention of the words "dreams" and "heartwarming." Is completely ridiculous. And insulting.

Left feeling drained, both physically and emotionally. Lack of sleep (awoke this morning at 5 am in my coat, passed out on a couch. Any memories previous to said awakening a complete blur if at all present) certainly a factor. Interesting how I've longed for an opportunity like today for so many months, the liberty of enjoying a hangover and "vegging out," as they say. Slight spin of a headache prevented much reading - oh how that stack is growing! - but fear not, I shall prevail upon it tomorrow. Must enjoy these last few days of freedom before I shackle myself once again to more scholarly commitments and sell my soul to the devil for a research paper or two.

I think this is going to be a good year. There are stars on the rise.

I hardly comment, but I browsed a bunch of comments on this page "Bienvenue".
I actually do have a few questions for you if it's allright. Is it simply me or do some of the responses come across as if they are left by brain dead individuals? :-P And, if you are writing on other places, I'd like to follow everything fresh you have to post.
Could you post a list of the complete urls of
your social networking pages like your linkedin profile, Facebook page or twitter feed?

Yesterday, while I was at work, my sister stole my
apple ipad and tested to see if it can survive a 30 foot drop,
just so she can be a youtube sensation. My apple ipad is now destroyed and
she has 83 views. I know this is completely off topic but I
had to share it with someone!

First off I would like to say excellent blog! I had a quick
question that I'd like to ask if you don't mind.
I was curious to know how you center yourself and clear your head prior to writing.
I've had trouble clearing my mind in getting my ideas out. I do take pleasure in writing but it just seems like the first 10 to 15 minutes are wasted simply just trying to figure out how to begin. Any ideas or hints? Thanks!
