hi black. i'm writing in to say hello after such a long absense..and perhaps in search of cheering. (have i lost my mind? (seeking cheering herein?).. quite possibly.) at the age of 36 spastic yrs i find myself desperately and all of a sudden wanting and needing very much to be an adult.(am i too late?) and not just any old adult, paying bills and what not. i need to rule. to be the master of my game. a crackerjack. infinitely reliable. a sea of absolute competence. a picture of stamina, balance, and a thing of human beauty, wisdom.. in short, a master. i want perfection, in the areas which matter. i'm talking first and formost about my career, which is that of a digital film and video editor, but of course, such a picture is not built on cluttered closets and trashed yards. this has to be wholistic... i need financial stability, i need simple classy gorgeous things to wear. i need to fill my brain with all the information necessary to really be the best in my field. how many articles in digital video publications do i read per day? per week? none. a natural talent for something is not enuf. i need a complete personality overhaul. i have quit smoking marijuanna... cigarettes went last year. there is only coffee now to battle, coffee and self loathing. therapy? hipnosis? i must apologize for this letter - case in point - is not awesome. it indeed does not "rule".. a. it's about me b. it's not funny. and c. boring. (d. inappropriately personal?) i confess i have not visited the b.report in eons. there are many ways i could elaborate on how and in what variety of ways i have failed as an adult, to rule. but what would the point be in that. there was onlyy one thing that i vowed with great seriousness to myself and perhaps my god, way back in my vivacious childhood. and that was that i would never "grow up". i quite literally "vowed" this, with uncharacteristic solemnity and backbone. i'm paying now. i want in a very back room kind of way to cry now. but i have no patience for that .. and i have tao be at work in 20 min.... (anyway, i've done plenty of crying since my recent pot-quit.) *please* forgive me this clumsy ramble. i know it's thoughtless. i only thought that someone could offer up advice. here's the thing. the raw materials are all there. it's not like wishing for something completely impossible. (someone's going to write in: "join the army") ok, fuck. i'd like to just call these growing pains, but i don't know yet if there will be any actual growing. i really want to grow up now. i'm ready to grow up now. i'm sorry. can anyone help me? this is just too pitiful. andyone in their right mind would trash, not post, this. clearly i'm not in my right mind. (please, if anything, be gentle with me...-no out and out meanness, pretty please...)
