Mainly because I know that maybe two people read this. And that is mainly because I haven't bothered to say "hey, people, read this!" and I don't comment on other people's entries because they might say "what the hell is SHE doing, read my LJ." So you see, my lack of participation in journal-ing and the like is a product of... lack of participation? I suppose.<br /><br />But let's just say for a minute that you stumble across this. Yes, lets.<br /><br />Hi, I'm Lindsay. You know that (?) And perhaps I should make a good first impression on all of you first time readers. Shall I be philosophical? Angry? Depressed? Would you keep reading if I was...? <br /><br />So what am I? <br /><br />...<br /><br />I think I'm just ready to be over. Not as in, over COMPLETELY, as in DEAD, because that would be STUPID. But, just over with Lindsay Phase I. I want to begin Lindsay Phase II. Which would be...? <br /><br />Ok, new subject. Last night I watched "Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind." A very good movie. No question. But: "Guys think I will make them more alive." <br /><br />I'm nice. I'm quiet. I'm a loser. I don't make people stop and think "wow..." I wonder if someone like myself could make anyone feel more alive, without first changing everything about myself, including my hair. (Movie reference) Whatever. Enough. urn:lj:livejournal.com:atom1:lookingcloser:1728 2004-12-19T05:23:48Z 2004-12-19T05:23:48Z THREE NAMES YOU GO BY:<br />1. Lindsay<br />2. Linny<br />3.

Reading, not writing. I would also like to someday make that same statement, and actually mean finish writing. How cool. urn:lj:livejournal.com:atom1:lookingcloser:1047 2004-12-15T21:44:48Z 2004-12-15T21:44:48Z So, what to say? Today was a day just like every other day.

I have to read, eat, and daydream...<br /><br />I really want to go shopping... not X-mas shopping for other people. Shopping for myself. Aren't I selfish? urn:lj:livejournal.com:atom1:lookingcloser:946 2004-11-27T01:54:36Z 2004-12-15T21:11:06Z I broke down and got one of these journal do-hicks. How exciting.
