And unlike most chicks, I don't buy much for clothes. I only buy clothes when I need something specific for an event of some sort or when I see something really cool (like today I bought a shirt with these happy tools on it... I got such a good laugh when I saw it - its a little odd seeing a saw blade with a happy rosy-cheeked face.) As for law school, yeah ouch. Towards the end of high school I was thinking I would love that. Then I thought about it and I realized there was no way in hell I could handle 8 years of additional school with such a heavy workload. |
I mean its interesting stuff and I certainly feel like I am getting my money's worth (which I guess doesn't mean much, since they are paying for it, I guess I mean my "time's worth"). The only downside is its even worse than a full-time job.
I more or less knew what I was getting myself into, so whatever. There are very few jobs that pay well that don't require you to work your ass off. Even when I start making a good salary I still won't spend money on music. Its ingrained in my DNA by this point. I just can't bring myself to do it unless it is an obscure CD by an independent or struggling band.
We had two bags of grass, seventy-five pellets of mescaline, five sheets of high-powered blotter acid, a salt shaker half full of cocaine, a whole galaxy of multi-colored uppers, downers, screamers, laughers…Also a quart of tequila, a quart of rum, a case of beer, a pint of raw ether and two dozen amyls. The only thing that really worried me was the ether. There is nothing in the world more helpless and irresponsible and depraved than a man in the depths of an ether binge. –Raoul Duke
It is hard to shed anything but crocodile tears over White House speechwriter Patrick Buchanan's tragic analysis of the Nixon debacle. "It's like Sisyphus," he said. "We rolled the rock all the way up the mountain...and it rolled right back down on us...." Neither Sisyphus nor the commander of the Light Brigade nor Pat Buchanan had the time or any real inclination to question what they were doing...a martyr, to the bitter end, to a "flawed" cause and a narrow, atavistic concept of conservative politics that has done more damage to itself and the country in less than six years than its liberal enemies could have done in two or three decades. -Hunter S. Thompson
