Just because people don't understand my reality doesn't mean my reality
isn't valid. This is why I've always identified with handicapped people,
people of other persuasions, non-sighted people, even people who speak
a different language or are of a different culture and are out of their
element -- anyone who is the 'other'.
I've identified with black culture being so alienated in the U.S.; Indian
culture, any culture that is the outsider.

Had a moment last night where I was thinking of Shannon and Albert, of how they are friends with me in my mind and accept me the way I am - playing Daft Punk and the car flying up in the air - and I had this 'it didn't matter whether I win or lose" type of feeling.
I haven't prayed for a while, but I pray for a really good job so I can
get my life back on track.

Update: It's not wordless. On the XKCD site, if you hover over it it says, "There's always the hope that if you sit
and watch for long enough, the beachball will vanish and the thing it interrupted will return." The title is Eternal Flame.
Lovely.[XKCD]
