Liquid Nonsense

The concept is simple: take the first sentence of your writing from every month and list them out.

January: I'm a lousy blogger.

February: I wish I had a semantic thesaurus that could act upon an entire sentence rather than just a single word.

March: Does anyone still read this??

April: I promised myself that once I had a legitimately being job that I would use a small portion of my income to engage in various frivolous activities purely for the sake of decadence.

May: My mantra lately has been "ask for help when you need it."

June: Do you ever notice little behavioral trends you get into under certain situations?

July: Day 1 Part 2: Today's tour of the city started off with lunch at a dim-sum style restaurant somewhere in downtown Shanghai.

August: So I'm sitting here watching the new Pinky & The Brain DVDs and having an ongoing discussion with myself.

September: Very nearly a year ago I set out on a mission of self-exploration and change to develop, and more fully integrate, things into my life I didn't have time for in college.

November: You know your training is effective when like an idiot you fall in the shower... not regular fall, but through the curtain and out onto the bathroom floor style fall, and somehow you manage to have enough body awareness to position yourself in the air as to avoid both the hamper and the toilet and catch yourself on finger tips with chin tucked as to avoid hitting the head on tile.

December: Several years ago I remember taking one of those EQ tests that supposedly analyzes the many different factors of your abilities, in contrast to an IQ test that only tests your "intelligence".

With the exception of January and March it sounds like I have had quite the year. There has been a lot of hellish introspection this last season cycle, but it has also been one of a lot of self-exploration, a great deal of fun, and a lot of growing.

Hopefully 2007 will be something of a repeat year. That is with the fun and growing. Not so much on the hellish introspection.
