Thoughts...
If I were deaf, would you still hear me out?
If I were blind, would we still see eye to eye?
If I had no legs, would we still kick it?
hehehe. ok so come on, you have to have SOME fun at work!
but seriously, I found the below passage in one of my favorite mags and I just love it. And I still don't feel like thinking, so you get more of my randomness. but this one is fun:
"Reading for pleasure, reading a novel while you are on the bus or the train or the subway, reading a biography instead of returning your boss's e-mails, reading philosophy in the back of a seminar that your corporate team sent you to, reading a short prose poem translated from Spanish by your favorite Chilean playwright in the coffee shop, reading a movie review on line at the place where you pay your bills when you are too late to mail them-- just reading novels and books in general will greatly aid you in your pursuit not to be rich, if only in their sheer time-as-money-wasting capacity. It makes a practicing nonbazillionaire like myself tremble to consider how much money I could lose reading Anna Karenina."
--Robert Sullivan, excerpted from How Not to Get Rich: Or Why Being Bad Off Isn't So Bad
a little perspective... but being a bazillionaire still sounds like fun! (more fun than throwing myself under a train, to any degree...)
