I got bored with my 'About Me' section so I'm going to actually say something about me for those of you who don't know me, which shouldn't be anyone who is on my dearest FRIENDS list, so this is pretty pointless. O'well, I'm bored. That's one thing about me - I get bored easily. I think I may have a mild case of ADD, but then again, doesn't everyone in our generation? I tend to pick things up and put them down before I finish them, but I do like to finish what I start (eventually). I'm good at a lot of things, but not great at one thing (maybe because I'm bad at concentrating on one thing). I hate that, but I guess it's better than being terrible at everything. I'm a simple person. My general philosophy is "pleasure from the lack of pain." I believe this stems from Epicurean philosophy (I'm trying to remember my high school class which was a long time ago now). I'll have to read up on this someday, but the point remains the same...happiness, to me, comes from not suffering, not necessarily things that are especially good. I don't care much for people who complain about everything and can't be greatful for where they are and what they have. I get pleasure from everyday things - walking around, eating, warm air, lying on the couch eating string cheese, air conditioning, greenery, sunsets (think "Everyday" by DMB - hugs). Maybe I just have blinders on when it comes to dealing with the difficulties in life, but I think it's OK when we're talking about the nonsensical drama that a lot of people seem to create in order to have things going on in their lives, though not so much when dealing with major issues. I try to enjoy life for what it is. I love music. I love my dog (if you don't like dogs something might be wrong with you). I love lamp. I like random statements that come outta left field (or right field, I'm not partial to one or the other). I like fantasy sports. I don't hate a lot of things. OK, I'm bored again...
