Last night I went dancing for the first time in years. For the longest time, I would have never danced. But last night, I went to this club with someone who made me feel comfortable and totally relaxed. It was such a wonderful experience to be out on the dance floor going all out and just having a wonderful time. This whole summer I have felt myself changing, becoming more of an outgoing person and much more comfortable in a lot of social experiences...and last night really embodied that whole change. Essentially, last night was the most fun I have had all summer by far and I feel lucky to have had someone so cool to go dancing with. (Thanks!)
Following the dancing though, I won myself a good ol' speeding ticket. It was long overdue that I got pulled over and I totally deserved it, so I am not going to complain. Regardless, I get to go to Driver Improvement School and the ticket doesn't go on my record. Seems a little too nice of them, but won't complain about that either...
Choose Life. Choose a job. Choose a career. Choose a family. Choose a fucking big television, choose washing machines, cars, compact disc players and electrical tin openers. Choose good health, low cholesterol, and dental insurance. Choose fixed interest mortgage repayments. Choose a starter home. Choose your friends. Choose leisurewear and matching luggage. Choose DIY and wondering who the fuck you are on a Sunday morning. Choose sitting on that couch watching mind-numbing, spirit-crushing game shows, stuffing fucking junk food into your mouth. Choose rotting away at the end of it all, pishing your last in a miserable home, nothing more than an embarrassment to the selfish, fucked up brats you spawned to replace yourself. Choose your future. Choose life... But why would I want to do a thing like that? I chose not to choose life. I chose somethin' else. And the reasons? There are no reasons. Who needs reasons when you've got heroin? - Mark "Rent-boy" Renton,
