“Filthy story-teller, despot, liar, thief, braggart, buffoon, usurper, monster, ignoramus Abe, old scoundrel, perjurer, robber, swindler, tyrant, field-butcher, land-pirate.”

—Harper’s Weekly magazine, 1852, on Abraham Lincoln

I think maybe those words helped inspire me today. Sometimes it’s my day to sit and vent about all the stupid things that are out of my control in my life, so please forgive my tangents. Thank you and goodnight. Elvis has left the building.

“I have always loved marijuana. It has been a source of joy and comfort to me for many years. And I still think of it as a basic staple of life, along with beer and ice and grapefruits—and millions of Americans agree with me.”

Greetings sports fans. Welcome to the wide and wacky world of occasional journal writing. Apologies to me for not writing for the past few months but various important things are occupying my life right now. Things that are SO damn important that if I wrote them down I would have to shoot myself after forcibly ingesting this paper.

RTVF is also the major I chose after suggesting to my parents I was likely going to take a semester off (while secretly already in the middle of taking a semester off) and suddenly seeing their over-the-top willingness to financially support me with school rather than see me descend into gradual blue collar hell. If I had known the threat of dropping out would make them help me pay for school I would have tried that tactic much earlier. Who says the caste system is dead? The long and short of it is that in the midst of figuring out why I was happy, I personally concluded money is not as paramount to my happiness as I thought it was and with the renewed financial support of my family I’m taking classes that I not only excel in, but also enjoy. Except for the technical terminology textbook aspects of my classes, most of what I’m doing seems too elementary to me to be viable for
