Still Drinking

This blog is going to be quite short. I've been running around for a couple weeks now, and between teaching, going back to school, working part time, and grabbing freelance work everywhere, there's no sign of the work letting up in any meaningful way. If things keep going like this, I'm considering hiring ssomeone.

Anyway, this is something I'd like to be credited for someday:

"It is naive to believe the human race helps anything but itself. Preserving the Earth helps our survival; protecting animals protects our dignity; defending freedom defends our pride. Attributing our passions, our fears, and our aspirations to causes and powers outside our own base need for survival and solace only cheapens the act of pursuit, and taints the moment of culmination. When we have lost the arrogance of thinking ourselves chosen, or thinking we serve something better than ourselves, we can go on to make ourselves better, and make each meaningless moment indespensible inside a life that becomes a work of art between its chance origin and inevitable end."

And that's my contribution to the world, even if I spend the next fifty years in dark offices working for bitchy clients.
