I’ve been waiting all day to write an entry. I should learn to just satiate my need to blog and get it over with. There is really no reason that I deserve this break. I have been working now for nearly 6 hours and have been able to produce a page and a half of…

“Jewish day of rest. Means I don’t work, I don’t drive a car, I don’t fucking ride in a car, I don’t handle money, I don’t turn on the oven, and I sure as shit don’t fucking roll!” -Walter, The Big Lebowski Control yourselves, the ‘f’ word is alright, as long as it’s in context.…
