5x3

5 quotes I am currently digging:

1. Treat everyday as a race that has already started.
2. Men are generally idle, and ready to satisfy themselves, and intimidate the industry of others, by calling that impossible which is only difficult.
3. You can't wait for inspiration. You have to go after it with a club.
4. A large income is the best recipe for happiness I ever heard of.
5. If I were two-faced, would I be wearing this one?

5 brands I am not cool enough to wear

1. affliction
2. tap out
3. diesel
4. hollister
5. purple label

5 reasons you are doing it wrong

1. It is not about you
2. Control is an illusion
3. It is funny. You just are too prideful to admit it.
4. You do/did it to yourself
5. While nothing is trivial, you must decide what does and doesn't matter. Choose wisely.

the post that must not be named

I used to wonder what various reasons depression ran higher numbers in the winter. I know the main points. Holidays seem to bring loneliness to a head. Seasonal Affective Disorder from the lack of sun. Cold weather lends to isolation and/or social hibernation. But last night I think I may have awakened to another reason. I can't be sure any of this will make the slightest sense but here goes. The winter feels still. I was out walking around around 10pm last night. The clouds overhead where moving at a pretty good clip, I even saw a couple people that were, as I was, being walked by our respective dogs. Yet, the cold air seems to cast a hush over all. The chill seemed to wedge a barrier between my self and the rest of the world. The world just seemed...still. Perhaps frozen in more than one sense. Or maybe I was just crashing from an endorphine high. You see, she is like my own personal brand of heroin....take that Cedric.
