I saw Chris’ journal laying on the garage floor tonight. It was a red spiral notebook that said, in Sharpie, on the cover, In My Mind written by Christopher Lee Oldham.
Better than out of your mind, I suppose.
Seriously, though, In My Mind. That’s a cool name for a journal. Mine’s delusion. What kind of name is that?
It actually took me a minute to remember where I got the name, which is odd, because we go way back, me and that name. When I was a kid (this should tell you the kind of fucked up kid I was), like ten or so, I always wanted to own a software company called Delusions of Grandeur Software, because I had all these delusions about how great it would be. I pictured that the logo would actually be DoGSoft, with like some kind of RCA puppy or something. I used to run around woods at the back of our land, smashing down the reeds beside the stock tank and terrorizing opossums, daydreaming about this software company.
I guess I never really lost that. I still want to be Delusions of Grandeur Software. I should really go down and file a DBA under that name before I lose it. Hell, DoGSoft is already taken.
delusionally yours, -k. -_-
I think I”m going to sign off with -_- from now on. ^_^ is history. ^_^ is for chumps.
As I got older I had to step out of the lines
And make up my own mind
As I got light as a feather they got stiff as a board
I can’t feel any more, but I can fake it forever
