It's amazing, you know. I glance around me at all the other diaryland diaries and I notice that there are people who've only been keeping an online diary for, like, a month, and they have more entries than I do .. and my diary's been here for nearly two years now. I guess it just goes to show how slack I am, and that should anything look like it requires even half a neuron, I avoid it like the plague.

but enough about plagues and all things nonsensical. this entry is going to be the metaphorical doorway to the new me. you see, on the way to work this morning I decided that it's time that I did that whole pulling up my socks thing and actually showed a little initiative as to where my life's all headed. it's not like I'm unhappy with the old me - just more the fact that for awhile now I've been kind of floating listlessly along. no real direction. no real drive. no real motivation. no real grasping at all the opportunities available and Making Something Of Myself.

so yeah .. I thought it was more or less time that I got real, and started cranking things into gear a lot more.

but enough with the cliches -- it's lunchtime.
