I picked up the pieces of my broken heart off the dirty boulevard

I am not to speak of what I'm thinking in this LiveJournal. Instead, I will provide you with a quotation from the first paragraph of the preface of A Different Universe (Reinventing Physics From The Bottom Down) by Robert B. Laughlin, winner of the Nobel prize in physics:

"There are two conflicting primal impulses of the human mind - one to simplify a thing to its essentials, the other to see through the essentials to the greater implications. . . . At the edge of the sea, for example, most of us fall into thoughtfulness about the majesty of the world even though the sea is, essentially, a hole filled with water. . . . Thus viewing the sea as simple and finite, as an engineer might, is animistic and primitive, whereas viewing it as a source of endless possibility is advanced and human."

Haha Fucking engineers.

This evening, I splurged on a Colt 45. I will now proceed to drink it while listening to punk rock. Later, I may get sentimental and decide to listen to love songs instead. I may also play guitar and yell, but I'm not promising anything.
