Archives, July-December, 2004
I have decided that I no longer want to leave up posts that I posted years ago. I don't like the idea of leaving the posts up indefinitely as a representative of myself, and besides no one ever reads my archives anyway. I thus will be featuring my most interesting writings one last time before locking them up in the vault, forever, along with my hair clippings when I was 2 and my first lost tooth (thanks Mom!). To read all of my archives for 2004, just look at my weblog archives (left-hand side of the page, way down).
July:
Yes, once in a while I wrote about my everyday life, but it was boring: http://weblog.xanga.com/GreekPhysique/105142444/item.html
August:
I talked about how to build confidence and our need for confidence http://weblog.xanga.com/GreekPhysique/123758071/item.html and I also talked about my need to communicate better http://weblog.xanga.com/GreekPhysique/118205681/item.html .
September:
I rip poor Ross from Friends for his lack of confidence: http://weblog.xanga.com/GreekPhysique/131225611/item.html
Once in a while, I played games with my readers, such as the Fortunately/Unfortunately game. I don't know why I didn't do games on here more often. http://weblog.xanga.com/GreekPhysique/131914220/item.html
October:
This is a suprise to me--apparently I was upset with the Republicans even before the 2004 election was complete: http://weblog.xanga.com/GreekPhysique/146865015/item.html
Some story ideas for movies, including something that sounds suspiciously like Mr. and Mrs. Smith. They stole my idea!!! haha not really. http://weblog.xanga.com/GreekPhysique/140999093/item.html
November:
A serious post on whether Natalie Portman could continue to be hired as an actress once she got a little older. I said no. http://weblog.xanga.com/GreekPhysique/162976163/item.html
A funny post on the death of Yassar Arafat, complete with fake AP reports from various sources. http://weblog.xanga.com/GreekPhysique/156645650/item.html
December:
I wrote a lengthy trilogy about Sin in the World. That's me, only the most upbeat topics! Flip to December 2004 in my archives to read Parts 2 and 3; here's part 1. http://weblog.xanga.com/GreekPhysique/165605414/item.html
I love getting nervous on answering machine messages: http://weblog.xanga.com/GreekPhysique/169480895/item.html

this comment is actually in response to your "pulse," but it didn't give me enough characters. i'm wordy, i guess

lol. we are pretty much exactly the same height. i always say "i'm 6'," 'cause it's easier than saying "i'm 5'11" and three quarters...", except then i have to backtrack and clarify so that i don't feel like i'm lying: "i mean, i'm actually a little under 6' without shoes on, but with any pair of shoes on i reach 6' easy, so it's just easier to say i'm 6' rather than to say i'm 5'11" and three quarters. besides, my coach has me listed as 6'1" and i don't know where he got that from, just because i'm taller than him doesn't automatically mean he has to list me as taller than i really am to make him sound taller when in real life everyone can see that he actually isn't as tall as he likes to think he is [pause for breath]. oh. sorry. i'm rambling. what was the question? yeah. i'm 6'."
Oh, ha, I forgot I left this on "protected" before I launch this post later in the week. That said--you're exactly my height?! That is so cool! I love looking people exactly in the eye, without having to look up or down. I thought you were 6'1", and actually was a little disappointed that you were taller than me. But no, you're exactly the same height. Cool!
Interesting movie ideas you had. Did you ever turn them into actual stories?
Well, we are close in height, you're one inch taller.
But I was totally digging the Republican party post. I voted Republican in the 2004 election and I still would today, but both parties have their issues. It's become Republicans vs. Democrats, less about the issues and more about petty fighting. [/mini rant]
Your answering machine post made me laugh. Hard.
