|We are the Yeast|

The other night I was talking to Emil, and he told me that we (humans) are similar to yeast in a petri dish.
Once inside a petri dish, yeast grow and grow and grow in their own little happy communities, feeding off of the sugar that they excrete. But that sugar, in conjucntion with the waste products from the yeast, turns into alcohol and ends up eventually suffocating the yeast; they die off.
The way I see it, is that yeast are suicidal by nature, as are humans.

We work ourselves to death, or sometimes not enough...which only results in poorer living conditions.
We get ourselves worked up over things that have essentially NOTHING to do with us,
and the worst injustice of them all:
we stick around the people who are most harmful to us, and keep going back for more.
This behavior is slow and painful suicide. We are our own poisons, we're destructive as hell (and seemingly, by nature).

I've come back home finally. I've been here since Friday. Nothing has changed, other than the fact that it looks as though they're trying to expand public transportation and my room seems smaller.

I went to a funeral yesterday. I've probably been to more funerals that most people. It's more like a social event in the South. Every time I go to one, I think about the way I would like mine to go. Morbid as it seems, I still haven't decided. I don't think I would like to be buried in a casket....that seems so...extra. I'm not a fan of the pasty, embalmed look...and I for damn sure wouldn't want to be remembered by anyone that way. Creamation seems cool sometimes, but so final (like death wasn't final enough right)?
I'm opting for cyrogenics.
These are things that we need to think about because Emil said we're yeast and oil is our sugar, and it's killing us.
Geologists predict that the earth only has 55 more years of natural resources left, so everyone should think about their funerals now.

In other news, I've kept a blog before people ever began to read it. That said, things won't change and I'll still say what I want, and it's usually how it happened. Censorship is a modern/communist invention. I'm not a yeast.

I want to write/storyboard animated cartoons. It's a new life goal of mine.

Michael and I are okay. We don't have any problems with each other, it's everyone|thing else.
We're friends.

And i'm not divorced.

He had his first shoot date for his movie yesterday. Not everyone you now can be that great, but some people can.

My birthday is in 2 days. It's a wonder that I didn't yeast myself already.
I'm too much about growth for that anyway.
