floccinaucinihilipilification

Hargin farg! I didn't realize that when you copy something to your clpboard and then you log out and log back in, poof it's gone and your clipboard's empty... geez that shoud've made sense before! but that's why we have Quicksilver...

For some reason when I looked up "floccinoccinhilipilification" in Sherlock, nothing came up. Maybe it's not such a handy tool after all... although it is kind of neat to just click movies and all the movies come up. I like the idea- very mac.

Anyway I've been on even more of a customizing kick lately, adding a little personalization to my login-background picture, changing it from the normal aqua blue thingamadoo- which is pretty neat, and I was getting tired of it, that's for sure... I also added some text string to the login panel but I don't think it worked, at least not the way I was told it would... And now, when I go: Apple: About this mac: THIS is what you get! I'm such a freakin' dork. I've been having this minor anxiety freak out about what I'm going to do once I get to SF and have to really get to the nitty gritty and decide what to major in. With all my geekness in the Mac lately, you'd think that I ought to go into some kind of computer field and work designing or maintaining or something, but I'm not quite the type... well, that's not exactly true, but I'd really have to find a niche and get really good at it, because in SF and in my generation, there are MILLIONS of youngstas just like me out there- with a little bit of skill that blows away some folk, but lack of major skill and I'm completely blown away by other folk...


I guess the bottom line is I really need to pick back up on my photography and Photoshop and take more classes there, I've been seeing ads for partime Photoshop peope helping out other professional photographers on craigslist, and I do know that I don't want to stick to union shit and break myself doing stuff like that forever... I'm kindof over the live production gigs. That is, until I find something that is really interesting and I'm into and that pays me well.


Ick. Ha, some asshole just kicked his soccer ball into someone's car and its alarm is going off... idiot. floccinaucinihilipilification I feel like I've been doing an awful lot of it as of late, towards myself and my decisions, what with my life changing so much and I don't exactly know in what direction... But, as I once learned from who-knows-where and tried at once point or another to explain to my father, I don't like to fill my life with making "decisions" as having to "decide" is committing another "-cide," i.e. suicide, genocide, homicide... So, rather, I chose. And to make a choice, I can live with. So can I live with mistakes. Wheras to decide, is to kill, which is a lot harder to live with, seeing as, well, it's dead.


Roger that.
