Only a couple things can comfort this fed-up mind of mine. One is the video involving Justin Timberlake and Scarlett Johansson going at it MTV-style followed by Justin and Scarlett racing side by side until the end when Scarlett comes to her bitter end - in a tragic car accident. There is no cinematography or direction quite like that. It brought a tear of joy to my eye yesterday when I first laid eyes and ears on it. Luckily I was able to use my quick instincts to record it and can now watch it at my own leisure...when I go through bouts of frustration towards the outside world.
I hate when certain things lose their flair. Right now I'm done with something I started a while ago. Mostly it is my own fault. I started losing interest last fall and since then have put the least amount of effort possible which in turn has led to bad results and unhappy people. This whole course of action then makes me frustrated because I don't want to deal with it anymore. I'm done with the complaints, I'm done with doing this for free. I'm just done. Yet here I am stuck in it because I made a commitment. Boo hiss is what I say to that.
Reasons for not just resigning my post in the free market? A)It looks good on the resume/CV, B)its given me more purpose (which is stagnant at this point), and C)I love basketball.
Right now it is just taking up too much of my time. Time that I really don't feel like is going to good use anymore. These days I'm getting more complaints than I am compliments and whenever anyone begins to feel underappreciated...they write a song.
This is as close to a song as I'm gonna get folks. And for that, you should feel damn lucky.
