  • A Little Longing Goes Away

    I've at times looked at the alternate timeline where I never moved to America from Poland.  My brain would still be powerful, and probably similar looks (although I wouldn't have the benefit of the gym culture), and it might have been alright to have loads of different family.

    One problem I find is that I like speaking English way too much.  There are loads of words and I know pretty much all of them.  It's just so expressive.  Way more expressive than Polish.  And all of the new cool words that come out (based on technology, the internet, etc.) are all made in America.  Then they just add some weird accents on it or a different ending and call it Polish, Spanish, German, whatever. 

    Why can't everyone just adopt English and get it over with.  All the best stuff like books and movies and TV and videogames are already English.  Japanese and Chinese are used loads, but all those figures are tedious and they have to change stuff around into short forms to make it usable on computers. 

    Last night was my first chance for a proper night's sleep in a while, but I still woke up at 7:30.  In Poland it was loads too hot and noisy (busy street) to sleep in.  Cursed.

    My post-vacation blues at work seemed to wear off a bit as the week went on. 

    I really do my damndest to live in the moment right now.  Like when I'm on vacation, I think, "Embrace this. Appreciate this.  You'll be confined to your cubicle before you know it."  And that kind of makes me like things more.  Except when I'm in my cubicle, I think "I'm confined to my cubicle." Then I feel even worse.
