I Heart Huckabees
Being sick has really bummed me out the last two days. I have been on and off sick for the last two weeks but it has finally kept me in bed. This has proved to be very unfortunate timing because I have a lot of important meetings this week, I have only been working with CU for two weeks now, and I had to miss going out to the bars for one of my best friend’s (Craig) 21st birthday. For a while I was worried I had mono because I have been sick for so long but after doing a little WebMD research I decided that didn’t make a lot of sense. I now have three competing theories. One, I had a small cold and as that one was wearing off I caught a new one. Second, I am allergic to work. It has been a while since I worked as much as I am now for CU. Third, I am like Sampson, when I cut my hair shorter to get the CU job my strength was taken with it. Like I said they are just theories.
Being the kind of guy I am, I tired to make the most of my sickness by doing what I could. I spent the day reading a book in research for my econ final paper and watching movies I have been meaning to see. One movie I saw, I Heart Huckabees, was pretty cool. It is about seeing the world in a less superficial surface level way. Even though I don’t really buy into that reality mentality I liked hearing different thoughts on life’s deepest questions. I decided that I am going to try to spend more time bringing conversations with friends and family to a deeper level so I can learn more about them.
