I saw an ad for American Idol on television Monday night and just started crying, not knowing why. I guess they were tears for humanity. Thank god the midget wedding show came on and my tears of tragedy were replaced by tears of hilarity. And it's not so much that I was laughing at them. Just that...I was laughing at the situation. And well, there were a couple of them that scared the shit out of me. So I guess I was laughing at them. Whatever. Everything's been alright since the breakup. In fact, things seem really good right now. Mostly because I've discovered the writings of John Titor, alleged time traveller, and everything else in my life seems inconsequential. Predictions for the future include an American civil war, beginning late 2004/early 2005, and an all out worldwide nuclear assault in 2015. In a way, I'm kind of relieved. Knowing that everything's going to fall apart within the next few years really takes the heat off. Especially in terms of maintaining a successful career and relationship. I didn't want to get married anyway. So I think I'm going to stop putting money into my 401K immediately, and start planning on getting that new car I want. I'm really going to start living for the now. I already was, but now I will even more. But I'm conflicted...I do want to see civilization as we know it destroyed, but at the same time, there are a lot of movies and video games coming out in the future that I don't want to miss. And having to resort to survivalist instincts might leave me a little fucked, being that I'm completely out of shape and was never a boy scout. Though there's always the possibility that I'll get thrown into jail for some reason when the country goes into martial law. And that's probably worse than having to survive and potentially shoot yuppies from rooftops amidst all the chaos. Maybe I should look into buying a firearm. Personally, they scare me, but it is my right as an American to own a shitload of weaponry. But anyway, I still have about half a year to go before I have to worry about civil war and the collapse of our government, so I'll enjoy my time in this wonderful republic right now, and I won't stop, no, I won't stop consuming! There are DVDs, consumer electronics, music, magazines, clothing, alcohol, and fast food purchases to be made! Plus I'm now "available" for the first time in...I can't remember how long we were dating, but it seemed like a really long time. So I've got to get back in the game and get some tail. But first I need to devise a strategy...
