Watched The Shawshank Redemption this evening. Acting and writing I've wanted to do since I was little, but acting was always kinda stopped because of my stage fright. I had that sense that I had set forth "right", and the decision would be against me, and the world was unfair, and yet the cause was so noble it was worth going down in flames over it. I feel like I've been no more than two steps from bliss at any given moment, though sometimes those two steps take some herculean effort to cross. With not a single soul in close proximity to even glance kindly my way, I totally lost it.

For the past, oh, close to two months, I've been talking with a reporter with the Associated Press regarding an article about Livejournal and the people that use it. Have to ring up the people today yes . I can barely talk to people I know, so having to interview local yokels about things I don't care about will probably kill me. I suppose this is a different sort of uncomfortable feeling for me, the meeting of total strangers. I wonder how normal people do this sort of thing. I'm always concerned when people start poking into my past life. It's not like there's a lot there to find out, but what there is isn't exactly flattering. I'm going to try to make the best of it, and try not to lapse into my past. There's something to be said for finding balance between the perspective that sees perfection and the perspective that criticizes everything. For that, though, I'm going to need judges and a prize. I need new glasses. Badly. I need to brush my teeth. *does so*
