Site Journal Help, I'm Lost! : Rice balls and slpit peas
Posted by horatio on Wednesday, March 11, 2009 (21:36:45) (101 reads)

I've been eating a lot of rice lately. For that matter, I've been eating a lot of beans lately too. Why? Sadly, I can't say it's due to some all-encompassing love for beans and rice (although I do love both), but rather the economic realities of having little financial reserves on the incoming side of the scale with large financial expenses on the outgoing side of the scale. A scale which, truth be told, feels like it is hanging quite askew at the moment.

I tried to think of some grand image of the lady of justice falling over from the burden of corruption and the evils of $, but all I could ever really come up with was an image of Garfield chasing his tail around an empty room complaining about the lasagne--obviously not much help for my situation. But in trying to find an appropriate image to match that I did run across a completely random French video clip from some series entitled La Fonte des neiges which I am including because I think there should be more films about nudist communities to remind people we exist as part of the norm... Wink


So instead I have resorted to writing more again, which always seems to be the most productive activity when I am feeling trapped and worked into a corner, which I think aptly describes my mental state right now. And I have begun the usual tasks of remedy and resuscitation:

-clean the laundry /check
-clean the room /still need to do!
-clean out my head /working on it
-look for jobs /doing it as we speak (ha, once again multitasking wins!)

[On a different note, what does it say about me that I had to double check the spelling of resuscitation in an entry about trying to jumpstart my life again...?]

School is seemingly going well, even if this week has proved unusually challenging for entirely different and unrealted reasons--another blog on that to come. I have some pretty interesting topics I am working on, and am slowly learning to navigate me way through the ethnographic minefield, or at least I hope I am.

Well, more to come, but more to do now, so until later, ciao.
