you are an imperfect being, created by an imperfect being
I am so tired. Taking the dog out 3 times a day, plus running, plus cleaning the house, and giving the dog a bath maybe has worn me out a bit. There is more I want to do. But I am too tired. And the cleaning is still not finished. Well yeah, it's never finished!
I watched what was on tv tonight, which happened to be the Star Trek movie "First Contact" with the scary BORG! Eek!
The movie is actually pretty good, as long as you can take the time-travel premise. I never understand why people have to go back in time to fix the future, why can't they just go back further in time until things are normal? Of course then you could just go on and on to infinity, further and further back. Why is time travel a popular device for stories? I guess it's a common human craving, to go back and do something over again, with full knowledge of how your actions will affect the future, to fix mistakes of the past. Or maybe it's just having that knowledge, of being able to see the future. Isn't that what time travel is all about? (Other than enabling well known TV and movie characters to dress in different costumes.)
I dunno, its too much for my puny brain to handle. I've been feeling rather foggy lately. My head hasn’t been getting enough activity. Now Total Recall is on. Great. A movie about memories, time travel all in your own head!
