i don't wanna grow up

oh, neglected blog... i'm sorry...

So, I have nothing worldly to say today. Only a little whining disguised as pensive philosophizing (yes, i made it a verb) about this awful thing we call growing up. it seems there's this moment in your life when you're supposed to give up ignorance and bliss and 'join the real world.' heh. from the looks of it (as is sometimes documented in this very blog), the real world a-sucks.

no i do not want to trade in my ripped jeans for a business suit, thank you.
no i do not want to wake up before noon.
no i do not want to grin and bear it.

hedonism? yes.
change the world? oh, certainly.
truth, beauty, love? you got it.


how is an idealist supposed to get any work done with all of these realities in the way? a little peace and quiet on this cloud, please? sheesh.
