I am a page running out of room...

In light of recent events, I have been told by several people that I need to think of myself more, to think of my own happiness before I think of anyone else's. I'm not saying that I'm some saint who always has others' concerns before his own...heck, I'm human, and I know I have my fair share of faults and weaknesses, and yes, even selfish actions. But what does it mean to think of my own happiness first? Does that mean to be MORE selfish? And if so, how? I've been thinking about that and I really don't know exactly what to do with it. What exactly does placing myself before everyone else entail? I find my joy in other peoples' joy...that's how I was raised...and what I learned in school...and maybe that's the problem. I was just talking w/ Jos last night about codependency and maybe I am codependent in that my happiness depends on that of others. So not in the clinical terms...but sort of analagous to my situation. Actually, I don't think it totally depends on the people around me, but that is what I find joy in. And to think of myself before I think of them would be uncharacteristic of me...so does it mean I shouldn't be myself for a while? It's just a bunch of questions...questions to which I have absolutely no answer...and thus my thoughts rumble on...

Work has been surprisingly slow as of late...with my projects still waiting in the wings and me not wanting to do anything else, I wonder what everyone else in the dept is thinking right now. Well, you can't blame someone for not having anything to do. I need to find something to fill in some time...hmmm, time to clean up my desk...oh and write some stuff for work...there ya go...

Here's some things I did over the weekend...I'll let the pics speak for themselves...




Oh, Brandy showed me this yesterday, you might not think it's as funny, but I thought it was...esp after seeing the one after it.

Here's the OG


Here's the spoof...


And believe it or not...he was on Jimmy Kimmel

That's his real frickin voice...the funny part is how he has to breathe outside of the mic, and just the lyrics. I mean, he knows it's just silly, but still...what a riot.

I saw this posted in Gleen's bathroom...I like it a lot.
