Privacy is for women... literally

I like that I am easy to find. I think that any person, armed with at least a small quantity of intelligence and a decent search engine could find me.

I would not advise this disposition for women... as there are a lot of really crazy/creepy men out there.

For me though, this works. I use to straddle the fence, keeping some things private, being only somewhat open about my personal identity. I was never as good as some of my acquaintances at being "totally private"...Now though, Im an open book... or rather, blog/vlog... lol.

If you have any question for me, feel free to ask. I am always up for making new friends... well, as long as you arent mean. I dont like mean people very much.

I know... I need to write more. Sorry to all. I have been painting all day yesterday and most of the day today. More blogging starting tomorrow... I pseuo-promise. (its like crossing your fingers, but only kinda)

Twitter me up!

Okay, so I am trying out this whole "Twitter" business... there is a link to it in the sidebar... at the top. Basically, it is a service that I text with random thoughts or updates throughout the day... and it puts it on my website. It might be really cool... or it might just me trying to have a fake friend to text with random news about my day... it's like having a girlfriend who doesnt scream at you! haha

So, enjoy random status updates about my day. If you feel like positing random thoughts or actions throughout the day... I suggest you click on the "follow me to twitter" link, sign-up for your own account (it is really easy), and start posting.... You can post by Instant Message, by going to the twitter website, or by texting.

When you get several friends who use twitter, the service can text you their posts throughout the day... or email them to you... or not, lol. It is just like a way of keeping tabs on random friends and their days.

haha, this should be interesting.

Stupid Zac

It was an hour and a half, tops. I have driven further to meet someone at the lake for the day... and yet, for whatever reason, I never made that drive. Thinking back, I dont know why I was so stupid. It wasnt like I "didnt have the time"... I know I am in a good place now, and so are they... and ultimately, the conversation probably would have been pointless. But of the short list of things that I do regret in life... not making that drive was one of them.

I know this goes against my whole "anti-pessimism" attempt... but in order for me to start making good decisions, I need to get a hold on the bads ones I made... so as to never repeat them. That decision was a bad one.

Dont ever let a 1.5 hour drive, or a 15 minute phone call, or even a 3 hour flight get in the way of you doing the right thing. There is no price that you can put on doing the right thing... not money, not grades, not sleep. If you have a friend and you know you need to see them... take the day off and go. Surprisingly enough... the world wont stop. The sky will not fall. The oceans will not flood. Sure, there will be more work to do when you get back... but there are some people in your life that are worth it.

Dont be stupid like me. Do the right thing.... before it becomes truly pointless.

socializing gone right

I would really like to have better control of my social interactions... for whatever reason, my natural personality tends to upset people... a side effect that I wish I could avoid. Right now, in life, I am working on being more aware of the way that I interact with individuals, and thus I am trying to optimize myself as a social being.

Any tips?


Oh, and if anybody just so happens to be really good at organizing rooms or mowing grass... I could use help in both those areas too... :-)
