So I've redesigned my site...though the font is still hard to read because I don't precisely know how to create a semi transparent background for the main body section of the site. I'll figure it out eventually, though making it bold helps alot. In other news...

The King of Kong is what I watched the other night. It's a documentary that follows the rise of a challenger to the world record for the highest Donkey Kong arcade game score. Being a documentary it's fairly slow paced but I never found it boring. I thought the interviewers did a good job of characterizing the people involved. You definitely feel for the "hero" and want to boo the "villain" though they really aren't so much a hero or villain as they are a guy who during a really hard time in his life played Donkey Kong to relax and got really good at it, and a guy who's kinda pretentious with his records that he holds. Thoroughly entertaining and fun, nothing truly deep or challenging, just a fluffy fun kinda documentary about competitive old school arcade gaming.

Until next we meet,

Adieu

It is odd to me that time can pass by so quickly. I could seriously fill all my days with reading other peoples writings and bloggings and simply respond and interact with them and be happy. I think it's the relational part of me that makes this possible. Relating to others is a huge strength of mine. I can relate even to people others find unrelatable. It just comes naturally to me. Communication is key. I don't really know where this is going. My writing when I truly write journalistically (that is as in for a journal rather than as in journalism which is definitely not the way I write) always tends to be a stream of concious style that evolves and has many run on sentences such as this one. I'm of course ok with my crazy stream of concious style it's others who sometimes find difficulty in finding a mite's worth of consistency through which they can tie together my thoughts. I was thinking, aside from liking the alliteration of the title, it describes my current place in life on many levels. It's all so complicated really. The ending of relationships and revisiting of others. The business and busy-ness we find ourselves in day to day. The need for knowing that we're cared for yet needing to be self-sufficient and strong. The impatience of our instant gratification generation. I speak of these things as much for myself as in general. Why do I get antsy when my frozen taquitos take 5 minutes to cook in the microwave. Don't I realize that taquitos used to take hours from start to finish to make, starting with making tortillas. We get so caught up in it all that we weave a wicked web. A web that ensnares us. Our bodies, our minds, our hearts, sometimes even our spirits. We get entangled in things that we ourselves have made. We lose sight of what is truly important. Blinded as it were. Let us be vigilant and not accept it when we get ensnared but rather work to free ourselves and overcome our wicked webs.
