I ache from the waist up

I was having dinner in town with my good friend Steve and my brother Jon, and for some reason, I pulled out my work ID. It was a picture taken right after my shift, and outside no less, so needless to say, I look a bit run down and squinty from the sun. Right after looking at the picture, Jon commented that I had "that Tom Cruise squint goin' on." Hilarious. I took it as a complement, seeing as how people generally think that he's an attractive guy.

On a similar note, I haven't felt like shaving for the past 5 or so days, and I'm starting to look pretty rough. It gets me wondering if I should go for the Jesus look for a while, just to see how I like it, because I don't really see myself having all this slightly itchy facial hair for too long. I guess it won't really be the Jesus look, but the "Tom Cruise in 'The Last Samurai' Look."

On a not similar note, but one related to my previous blog post, it's taken a lot of energy to not completely shut down and be unresponsive to the outside world. Being able to relax with friends at my house or whereever on the weekends has been good for me. The weekdays are the weekdays, and they drag along through the solemn fall, but I'm hoping that the winter doesn't kill me. I guess it might be just the way i'm configured, but not having something or someone central to my being is difficult for me. Okay, i'll can the emo bullshit for now. Be well.
