Discipline

Day 3

It would have been so easy for me to come home from my long day and just go to bed.  I'm trying to be more disciplined, though, so here I am, keeping one of my new year's resolutions.  I'm writing something today.

Speaking of discipline, why can't more people discipline themselves not to be assholes?  Why can't I discipline myself to NOT get the soda in the vending machine just one time and opt for some water instead?  Why can't I discipline myself into using the damn gym membership I'm paying for?

Baby steps, I suppose... baby steps.

Is this blog a step in the right direction?  We shall see..

Maybe tomorrow I can finish that book I've started reading.  I still can't tell whether or not I like it.  I can't tell if it's a deliberate attempt by the author to be a certain way or to send a certain message or if that's just who he is.  I'm leaning toward the former.  If I stick with that thought by the end of the book, I'll give another book by this guy a chance.  If not...  I've really got no interest in reading anymore.  No thanks, Mr. Henry Rollins... I know all to well exactly how isolation and misery feel.  I'm pretty sure, though, that you're slinging some shit at some folks.  If that's the case, it's nothing short of brilliant.

I guess, when I'm done, I'll put together an official "review".  I do have 362 more blogs to write, so we'll have to have something to talk about, no?  haha.  Hopefully, this morphs into more than me putting my random thoughts out in written form.  I mean, isn't that what facebook is for?  geez, brain... come up with something of substance already.
