(nasa) we don't need no stinking limitations

all aboard virgin galactic!

i think it's funny that the profiler on this blog limits the number of characters in the "interests" box to 600. one can hardly get started with 600 characters. one of my interests is removing limitations. perhaps i will rebelliously make an unlimited entry one of these days of all my interests.

there is construction going on across the street from my office window, and from time to time i have the great pleasure of watching cement trucks (and other heavy machinery). there doesn't seem to be much going on this week. there's some kind of tanker truck over there right now that looks like it might contain gas or liquid of some sort...i can only make out "texas" on the door.

i realized this morning on my way to work that i'm always in the market for something new. this limits me. it seems rather obvious now that i've realized it, but it was startling. new ideas, new projects, a new car (my 1983 tercel might resign one of these days, you see), a new bed, new plug-ins, a new keyboard, a new love, the next trip. i'm an early adopter. i never stay still. i haven't cultivated the knack for making full use of what i have right now. a new house. an incredible studio. a great boyfriend. a good education and a fabulous job. good health. amazing communities of friends. creativity and still a trace of youth. even useful guidance from God. instead, i'm always looking ahead and distracting myself. if i can cut down on this distraction, i think i will be more productive.

He's over 75 so has probably gone to collect his Medicare Gold entitlements.
