I'm deeply disappointed I am not a celebrity yet; I figured my one chance would be writing. I could edit the author photograph and look semi-normal. Alas, I can't write and the rock star career doesn't seem to be eventuating. What to do? I'll never be popular, good looking, witty or, as I have discovered, have a glamourous and thus worthwhile job. I'm fielding suggestions for alternate careers in which you don't need to have talent or looks to get ahead. Damn, that rules out trophy wife, and they don't pay people to navel gaze.
So here I am, not really good at anything; I'm stuck in Dunedin and in a life that promises to be unremarkable. Damn society for raising my expections, and damn me for just being intelligent enough to be aware of my limitation. I wish Jim Flynn had advocated birth control in the water supply earlier, non existence would be so much simpler.
Apropos of the above, it could be suggested that he is being self interested, after all, he is called Jim "A for a lay" Flynn in some circles. I wonder if he was secretly representing the interests of a large group of sleazy university lecturers? Which brings me to another area in which I have proven inadequate; none of my lecturers hit on me...the logistics of it all puzzle me. Perhaps people are just overcome by passion as a way of evading really boring areas of study. Management and Economics lectures must be a hot bed of vice.
About Me
- M
- Terminally bored and boring librarian just trying to make my way in the world as best I know how. I have many schemes and ideas but lack an army of minions to execute them. I'm a joiner and a quitter, and I watch far too much C4. What more is there to know?

i did not know about jim flynn's sleaziness, and frankly it disturbs me. i think there is a secret society of sleazy university lecturers. along the lines of the whole skull and bones society that dubya supposedly belonged to. rising up the hierarchy depends on how many eyelinered bints you poke.
i am of the opinion that academics should not be permitted to have sex. there are just some situations that i do not want to imagine peter leech in.
that said, none of my lecturers ever hit on me either. there are one or two that i wish would. maybe the reason i am taking so long to finish my thesis is because by my own rules, the moment i have "dr" in front of my name, i won't be allowed to have sex anymore, because i will be too confronting to myself.
Remember that awful short for House? when you said about being a Dr, I immediately started hearing the voiceover in my mind. "In fact you could say the Dr is in the House". Somewhere I fervently hope none of us will ever be.
You're right though, some people it is easier to imagine asexual. I was at a training thing a week or so ago, and someone raised the point that "we are all sexual beings". I looked at him and longed for a return to innoncence.
HAHAHAHAHA I bet you are all thinking of Enigma now.
Crap, I got so excited I managed to post about Enigma that I spilt coffee on myself. Hang on, I can follow that up with another terrible song reference. It doesn't Hurt so good ahahahahahaha
