i've just spent over 3 hours watching entourage episodes. wasting time is easy.
would've gone on all night, but hairy's ariving on a plane tomorrow at 7am.
here's part of what i wrote earlier - never got around to finishing it.

i've got 30 days.
30 days to use productively in my solitary state. well not so solitary, since hairy will be coming over to spend the long weekend here.
what can you do in 30 days in the desert? hermit life can be cool. honest. extract yourself from comfort zones, let your thoughts grow louder and the confines of your head and imagination start to stretch beyond what you normally experience.
i have two goals for this month. we'll see how much progress i make towards them.
-
the past 30 days was used up really well. my family and i threw a wedding for my sister. it went better than what we expected and is probably the biggest, most crazy thing we've done as a family. also managed to wake up for two doggie day outs on two sunday mornings. will post photos and such soon.

found this anecdote on the net today -
A guy was seated next to a 10-year-old girl on an airplane. Being bored, he turned to the girl and said, "Let's talk. I''ve heard that flights go quicker if you strike up a conversation with your fellow passenger."The girl, who was reading a book, closed it slowly and said to the guy, "What would you like to talk about?"
Oh, I don't know," said the guy. "How about nuclear power?"
"OK," she said. "That could be an interesting topic. But let me ask you a question first. A horse, a cow and a deer all eat the same stuff... grass. Yet a deer excretes little pellets, while a cow turns out a flat patty, and a horse produces clumps of dried grass. Why do you suppose that is?"
The guy thought about it and said, "Hmmm, I have no idea."
To which the girl replied, "Do you really feel qualified to discuss nuclear power when you don''t know sh*t?"
