i thought hedonism was the pure pursuit of pleasure; however, my existentialism prof tells us that hedonists actually try to tone down the amount of pleasure in their lives, because if things get too exciting it's inevitable that they'll get boring.
fireball weekend: i wrote a midterm, wrote an essay, slept a total of ten hours over three nights, drank, and drank again. i ran 5k for cancer, hit more than one intense friendship milestone with more than one friend, and did a few naughty things i won't put in print.
now the gutter's draining outside my window. the t.v.'s blue screened and humming. the phone's screaming dial-tones and busy signals and answering machine messages. there's nothing but my own breath.
in. out. in. out.
beep beep beep beep beep beep.
drip. drop. drip. drop.
(god, i'm restless.)
