Another week of weeks in another year of years.
Published Friday September 1st, 2006

It’s been more than a week since I last wrote and rambled about something. What an un-diligent blogger I have been. It’s certainly been a crazy week of fun, good times, and resurfaced emotions. I doubt any part of this entry will be as thoughtful or insight full as anything you might read on Chris’ blog, but this has always been the case.. at least as of late.

In the background I hear Stacy (a sales person) and in the distance, my boss and CEO Lance talking on the phone together trying to sell our Omniupdate product like crazy. Running it kind of like a tag-team sales call they both take turns speaking and explaining how the system works. Lance seems to provide more explanation and more of the how, and Stacy makes it fluffy and good sounding with words like, “cost-effective,” “easy,” “advantages,” and so forth. I think it’s time to put on ear phones and listen to some music. Ah yes, much better.

Last time I wrote it was Wednesday.. Since then.. It seems like so much and yet so little has happened. Thursday I hung out with Matt and Isaac. I saw old faces like Kurt Miller and others. Friday Matt and I headed over to Mallory’s house where we met up with Isaac, Cory, Abby, and Mallory as well as an assortment of other people like, again, Kurt Miller and Sarah Something. People I had not seen in quite some time.

When the weekend came around.. Well.. It was a good weekend. A type of weekend I have not enjoyed in some time.. Most of the time I was just by myself at home. I mixed for hours on Saturday and again on Sunday. I love mixing. By the way.. Whenever I’m mixing I usually have a Internet-audio stream broadcasting. When said broadcast is active, you should notice an annoying flashing widget in the top-right of this page alerting you to the fact that the stream is up and providing you with the stream-URL. Neat-o fact about the inner workings of my web-page right there.

At some point this weekend I saw V for Vendetta at Chelsea’s house with Chelsea. I love that movie. V is awesome. I wish I could ramble like he can. I hear that a paragraph is supposed to contain at least three to four sentences. I guess I can end this one.

Monday came along.. And it was somewhat of a typical Monday at work. By typical I mean.. slow and somewhat unmotivated and long... oh so very long. Although not related to Monday, I might mention that one of my co-workers, Jon, is quitting and moving on to a new job in his career. I might take over, as time continues, some of his graphic-design work for the company... and that’s exciting. Although, on the other hand.. It’s kind of sad to see him leave because he’s been enjoyable to work and collaborate with, as well as joke with on-line.

Directly after work, after not having seen her for at least a year, I picked up Rachel Williams in Newbury Park and we went to dinner at El Torito. After dinner, we successfully attempted to find Mike’s new home. With Mike in-tow, we headed over to Grant’s. After some time by Grant’s we headed back to Mike’s where we hung about a bit until calling it a night. I then took Grant and Rachel back to their respective abodes.

Tuesday came around. School. Boring. Took forever. Wouldn’t end.. but finally did at 15.00. I went home and recovered. I didn’t sleep particularly great the night before so I napped a bit.. or tried. At around 19.00 I headed over to Newbury Park and picked up Rachel again, soon followed by Grant. We (I) went to Jamba Juice in T.O. And then we drove around a bit visiting Point Mugu and Von’s where Rachel bought Soy-ice cream (eww). We briefly headed up to my house.. mainly to get a spoon and then a plan developed to meet up with Mike, Chelsea, and Danielle at Newbury Park’s In-n-Out... So we did. Towards midnight I brought Grant and Rachel back home, then headed home myself.

Wednesday came and went... Thursday came and went.. and today has come, and will go. In some ways it has been a crazy week and I’m ready for this one to end and next week to come... however... there is still one more major event to come before this week can end.. a crazy weekend.

What more to say.. what more to say.. nothing really.. Didn’t really have anything to say to begin with.. It’s funny how more than a week of time and events can simply be compressed and summarized into a single short page of text. All the details left out, and any of the important or more interesting bits omitted, or perhaps censored for the purpose of posting a general summary onto this blog. So many random bits of detail I could add that would shock some, amuse others. Bits of detail which would perhaps show insight into my emotions, strong opinions, or.. who knows what.

I suppose this is true for all people on their own: To be able to get a full comprehension of my being (or anyones), of who I am (or anyone) and what I (etc..) think.. you’d have to round up everyone I know and speak to. Each person with whom I communicate shares a unique link to me and knows something of or about me in some way that no other does. Of course.. this doesn’t sound at all amazing, and is true for every person respectively.. But when you really think about this.. It’s a neat concept. What I might have told one person, I might have also not told another person. And what I might have told this other person, I might not have had the chance to share with that original person. Person A knows a bit about me which Person B does not know. Person B knows a bit about me which Person A does not know. Person C knows what Person A and B know but does not know what Person D knows, which Person A knows but not Person B. Ooooohhhh! What a mind-fuck! When you round of all these Persons.. only then could one put together the entire picture of who and what Marco Luethy is, what he thinks, and he likes and doesn’t like and the things he does and doesn’t do.

That is one of the most accurate descriptions of a mind racing I have read in a long time. Bene!

Aahaha, such a great depiction of the randomness of the bored working mind. I really don't think cubicals (or a desk near the front in your case) is really a productive environment, it doesn't encourage anything new. 2 xanga eprops to marco!

Pssh, MySpace kudos are SOOO much more valuable. Marco's desk at the moment really is not a good "productive" place. But he'll be moving a week from today anyways. I'm curiuos though, how could a workspace be more productive? Maybe a crapload of knick-knacks is necessary... <img src="http://www.funonthenet.in/images/stories/forwards/google office/google-office2.jpg"> (hope Marco's blog doesn't block HTML... oh well.
