Negativity
I have been feeling rather negative lately. It is a self-perpetuating state of mind to be in. I have started a couple posts tonight that had derisive, sarcastic, and otherwise dark observations. One didn't post because my network connection failed, and I noticed how disparaging my last one was going. I am glad I caught it before it was published.

Derisive, sarcastic, and dark. I've only heard you say things with that tone during BYU home games when we're losing ;).
Alison thinks those qualities would be great for a novelist. You could write one about a failed writer/philosopher who installs security systems in peoples houses to burgle them. THAT would be interesting.
Now if only I could channel those feelings just during writing sessions.
I feel that my tone at BYU games will be not so dark anymore, at least not as often ;) I watched the Utah game while I was visiting my dad up in Washington. It was funny to see their reaction to me as we had never watched BYU games together before. I missed the first quarter, so it was like those frustrating home games of years past. And then the final play was so sweet. I wish I could have been there, it would have been the greatest.
You just need some sort of brain implant that constantly plays BYU's greatest victories in your mind. No more negativity ... although lots of people might be confused why you're shouting to yourself, and clapping your hands for no apparent reason. I don't know, maybe there's some states where that behavior is normal ... but probably not Colorado. Or Utah. But Florida ... maybe Florida ...
