It has been an amazing few weeks.  Some good.  Some bad.  Some real bad.  Some has been spontaneously refreshing.  I met some new people, one of them has been an amazing help... and yet morbidly I await for him to screw me over because I'm used to people who pop into my life at the perfect time to eventually fuck it up.  Whether or not that happens, I have stepped out of my negative expectations and have realized the benefits of going with the current energy rather than going against it.  In whole, it is key to furthering oneself for the 'long haul'.  However, alone this philosophy has no boundaries and no real direction.  In fact, unless you are a dandelion seed, it makes little sense for humans. 

We do need some structure, and we need some boundaries.  We need some areas where we limit ourselves or else we fall under every other self-indulgent world power that has collapsed from it's own fat belly in the history of "civilized" man.  With that, I'm putting some restrictions on myself.  I'm going to finish this painting by Christmas... even if I'm not in the "creative mode" there are still some non-creative aspects to it that I can be working on rather then going out and spending all this money I don't have.

The second is going to be a year long process - and it's going to start and end with my birthday, October 1st.  It is something that I've been wanting to do for a long time.  Once again this blog is going to shift in nature.  Over the next year, my opinions and views of the world will be left to Twitter, but this blog is going to be somewhat of a journal, a chronicle... I'm not sure how to handle some aspects of it, but everyone please remember this is from my mind...

It will be raw.  It will be hurtful.  I will actually cause some people to hate me.  There will be more information to handle in one sitting, so I feel stringing it out over a year would be a better presentation.  Also, there is a certain poetic symmetry to how this blog is the best medium for the job.

Please stay tuned.  There is a lot to cover before October 1, 2011.
