Never growing up

Randomness

So I was driving home tonight/this morning and had to stop at the railroad tracks. I pulled up really close so I could see if there was actually a train coming because it seems like too many times there's no train and its just a problem with the equipment. Anyway, there was a train, it was the metrolink, it was pulling off from the station near my house, and as it went by I could see all these people on the train sitting/reading newspapers. It was about 4:30am and I still think that's freakin early to already be on the train heading to work, man they must have woke up early. I don't know if I could do that. I felt sad for them, but also for myself.

The neighbors had a horse at their house today, I'm not sure why though. These are the same neighbors who keep chickens and roosters, they also tried growing rows of corn in their backyard, and they are constantly burning stuff in their backyard too (like trash or something). They are sooo very weird and probably illegal. Anyway I don't know where this horse came from but they were riding it up and down the street, and had it in the backyard. Poor horsey there really isn't much room for it. I hadn't seen a horse in awhile, I'm glad josh got to see it even though he kept calling it a doggie. =)

I started reading the book I ordered during finals week, but now that I'm done with the quarter I haven't touched it. I'm not sure why, its good so far. Its called Lullaby by Chuck Palahnuik, he wrote fight club. I find myself wanting to order other books, or just start reading other books too, and I don't know why. Maybe constant TV watching has shortened my attention span sooo much that I can't commit to the time it would take to finish a book. Sad isn't it? I find myself constantly having the TV on, to watch to listen, even if I'm not facing the TV and its muted, I keep the TV on sometimes. I swear you can still hear a noise, a buzzing, I like it. Palahnuik might say that I am a noiseaholic, or silencephobic. Maybe the TV is emitting some kind of addictive signal into my brain that keeps me from turning it off. Or maybe I'm just used to it, but whatever. I'm going to try to finish this book and start a new one before the summers over. (should be as easy goal, hopefully)

I looked at some cool art portfolios online today, I wish i could do some of that stuff. I looked at crystalyang.com she has some cool charcoal drawings up. They are really good, I love charcoal, the whole black and white thing. She also has a drawing of angelina jolie up there, I guess she really likes her. I was also looking at some other ones with a friend on a school website for Rhode Island School of Design.
