goals, where did you go

I spend far too much time on the internet and I think it's taking a toll on my social interaction in real life.  It's not like I'm on the computer for six hours a day or something but however long I am on, is too long.  So from now on I'm going to be solely checking email and filling out job apps. Maybe I will update LJ if anything exciting or notable happens in my life. 

So, sayonara internet, at least for a while.

OK, so I did a small friends cut as there were a couple people who haven't updated their LJs for a couple months.  If you were cut and object to being cut, please comment.

List seven songs you are into right now. No matter what the genre, whether they have words, or even if they're not any good... but they must be songs you're really enjoying now, shaping your spring. Post these instructions in your LJ along with your 7 songs. Then tag 7 other people to see what they're listening to. 

(Don't) Fear the Reaper by Blue Oyster Cult
The Mending of the Gown by Sunset Rubdown
I Want You by Bob Dylan
Mishto by Gogol Bordello
The Sickbed of Cuchulainn by The Pogues

OK, LJ friends... your turn

Random quote from the Bible that I like:

Hope deferred makes the heart sick, But desire fulfilled is a tree of life.

Some roads are only seen at night.
Ghost roads, nothing but neon signs.
But some nights the neon gas gets free-
Turns into walking dead like me.

And I've been makin' promises I know I'll never keep.
One of these days I'm gonna leave you in your sleep.
I have to go when the whistle blows-
The whistle knows my name.
Baby, I was born on a train.

I know that you were never young,
And I know you probably won't get old.
But honey, nobody's gonna hurt you anymore.
And nobody's gonna make you wanna die.

But I've been makin' promises I know I'll never keep.
One of these days I'm gonna leave you in your sleep.
I have to go when the whistle blows-
The whistle knows my name.
Baby, I was born on a train.

I'll go one cold and gray morning.
And you won't remember anything.
But some people don't believe in time.
And some of us don't believe in life.

But I've been makin' promises I know I'll never keep.
One of these days I'm gonna leave you in your sleep.
I have to go when the whistle blows-
The whistle knows my name.
Baby, I was born on a train...

Baby, I was born on a train...

Moments can be monuments to you
If your life is interesting and true.
It's just the same for a man or a girl,
The meaning of the world lies outside thw world.

People love people and they understand
if you wanna renovate your background mind
(a federal woman needs a municipal man)
people gotta synchronize to animal time.

You can't change the feeling
but you can change your feelings about the feeling in a second or two...
People always come around.

I'm studying the ceiling on a little afternoon
and when I paint my dining room
people gonna come around.

I love to see a rainbow from a garden hose
lit up like the blood of a centerfold
I love the city and the city rain,
suburban kids with biblical names.

People ask people to watch their scotch.
People send people up to the moon.
When they return, well there isn't much.
People be careful not to crest too soon.

The drums march along at the clip of an I.V. drip
like sparks from a muffler dragged down the strip.
I really hope you'll come around.

It's sunny and 75. It feels so good to be alive.
Come on baby don't stay inside.
Everybody's coming out tonight.

If they can make a law then I can break a law 
If I can break the law will the law break me?
It comes tumbling down again, I can't comprehend, is it destiny
A nomadic state, are you a refugee, no place to call your home
Forever walk alone as the world goes on
Forgotten by the ones you've known

And all the words you gave me
I lost on bended knee
But you can't stop these cravings
Just by praying they would cease

If I can make a life, then I can take a life
If I save a life, will this life save me
Time after time I still seem to find you're looking out for me
So wrap your arms around me, hold me close and don't let go
Let me lean on you as I think things though, if I don't we'll never know

And all the words you gave me
I lost on bended knee
But you can't stop these cravings
Just by praying they would cease

Will your faith save me
Will I find this place where I belong
Can you protect me from my troubles, keep me safe from harm
Will you help me carry on

And all the words you gave me
I lost on bended knee
But you can't stop these cravings
Just by praying they would cease

And all the words you gave me
I lost on bended knee
But you can't stop these cravings
Just by praying they would cease

If they can make a law then I can break a law
If I can break the law will the law break me?
It comes tumbling down again, I can't comprehend, is it destiny
Your nomadic state, are you a refugee, no place to call your home
Forever walk alone as the world goes on
Forgotten by the ones you've known

Good review... I agree with this guy's assessment of misanthropy at the end.  It only reflects badly on the misanthrope, etc etc.
