I turn 31 in a week. I am single. No kids. A writer/director currently not getting paid for writing or directing.
A third of my life behind me (maybe more).
Am I worried?
Nope, not one bit.
For I've lived more than most in my short time on this planet. And I'm grateful for it.
The end of this years brings so much change to my life.
Life for me, starts at 31.
See you guys there.

One really long day...
Did you know that there are fruit flies out there that only live 24 hours? It's true. From birth to death. They eat, sleep, mate, go through some fly adventure (not the slang 'fly' but no one's used that since the mid 90's), and then die.
Such an interesting concept of time these flies might have. Or they may just not pay any mind to the passage of time, or care of their own existence.
Sometimes, I can envy a fruit fly.
But it can only be that, cause I am aware of my own existence. However, the passage of time, seems like I can cheat on that one.
I had an amazing week. Chock it up to one really long fruit fly day.
For now, anyway.

The pursuit of Happiness...
It's an interesting theory when you think about it. What is Happiness in its most biological sense?
The brain receives information that is converted into electrical impulses. These impulses electrifies and stimulates the organ that is your brain which in turns releases certain chemicals. The balance of these chemicals are crucial. When they secrete and rush into your system, its euphoric. The initial surge makes you smile wider than you normally would, makes your heart palpitate a bit faster, and sends a tingle through your body. The body, once used to the chemical flux, will return to a sense of calm, but a pleasant one.
Is this Happiness? If so, then a drug will give you the same result, no?
Then why the term 'The pursuit of happiness'? Does the body look for happiness? Do we as beings need it so badly that we have to search for it? Search for images, smells, sounds, anything discernable that will fill a void in our chemical make up?
Is it a constructural flaw? Are we built to search from the get-go?
Happiness can come in so many forms, but ironically it never comes, it must be sought. I've found mine. I hope you find yours.
