oh jonathan mcglone.
fair is said to accompany harsh reality in the real world. normality no longer breathes life into the full of breath. and insignificance belies everything and nothing. in fact those of us are not normal and nothing we do is insignificant. a different world view launches a fuller, more wide-eyed bright youth in me at the moment. i acted like a child at work today because i am in an office that does not belong to me for the week because the production director is in los angeles and the space was available while my space was returned back to another department for reassignment. i felt like a kid because i was surrounded by people who love television. although they were my fellow interns i did not really follow what was going on because of said love of television. and i am not a part of that conversation, i just listened intently to try and find a single inkling of recognizable parts of speech made into words where i could interject something. but, i understand that i have not been an avid watcher of television since the turn of the century. good! i do not feel good about television and i rather dislike it. oh well. so we sat in this office with our feet up watching a digital video disc of graduate student films from columbia university from the past graduation year of 2004. i enjoyed them, but i bet with a different audience surrounding me i would have enjoyed them more. now i am happy with my decision from three weeks ago to take an unopened copy of the columbia student film fest of aught three. that indeed made me excited to get up to school to start the new year. hey jonathan - i still have that email where you suggested watching the russian film come and see (idi i smotri) and i promise you that it will be the first thing i watch before the semester starts as soon as i get back up to school and settled.
again i have found myself wandering in this office environment. so many people pass by the office, so many voices talking, talking, talking, talk, talk, talk. i cannot concentrate. there is a window in this office that faces more cubicles. i cannot see what is outside this building because all the blinds are closed. jon i miss you. i yearn to relax on a grand rapids porch in the middle of the day talking of things i hardly know anything about...
