I'm having a good day, and that makes me happy. I'll be able to finalize my ticket purchases and set a long term schedule, plus I just got paid. It's hard to overlook the happiness of someone handing you a check and saying, "Ok, now you're richer." I'm still at the point where all of that matters, because I have a backlog of things that need taking care of. Everytime I get paid, I get to check off one or two more, or knock some money off student loans, or something. I get a visceral thrill out of that, which probably says something about me. Who gets excited over fiscal responsibility, anyhow? I should probably work for government.
Anyhow. As weird as that tangent was, I know there's apt to be one or two people who read this that are really interested in talking about money and economics. I feel that if I posted my indepth thoughts, such as I have, about the state of the nations economy or something, somebody would be interested in reading that. More and more, though, there have been topics on my mind that I'd love to talk about on the small scale of journal commenting that just arn't going to find any purchase.
For example, I'm really wanting to get back into FFXI again. Obviously, I can't right now, because my computer bricks everytime I play for an extended period, so I just do stuff in the game that takes less than an hour to accomplish. Crafting, gathering, playing games with the auction house (which is a little like playing the stock exchange on Easy Mode), or whatever. As much as I might be interested in talking about this, or Magic: the Gathering, or a few other things I'm really into right now, there's really no point in me getting into it on my LJ or any other journal, really. But that's what I'm up to.
Still, things are ok. Probably going to be doing rpg grunt work this weekend.
