Song Of The Moment

I've been watching "Dark Side of the Rainbow" a little bit lately. For all that are not familiar with this, let me give you a little inside information on it. Basically, "Dark Side" is Pink Floyds' "Dark Side of the Moon" synced up to "The Wizard of Oz". Ya, its kinda weird, but a good watch all the same. The coincidences really catch you (like when the cranky old woman appears on her bike or when the house gets lifted up by the twister), ... but thats all it is really. Coincidences.

On a deeper level, things like this happen all the time. We relate older things to newer things and vice versa and make something new out of it. We apply for a job and remembering our experiences with our old jobs, relate it to the new position, making it something new and old at the same time. Faced with a decision, we remember choices we have made in the past and determine what to do based somewhat on those experiences. In the end though, is it creation we are doing or just making something out of nothing? Forcing irony on our lives to make something happen?

All right, enough of the philisophical (full-of-fuck-all) sense. I am currently looking at securing a new place of residence (ie getting a new apartment). Looked around and found a few that were not too badly priced so far. Now, its just a matter of figuring out whether it would be easier to spend more to live closer to work or spend less, live farther away and spend on getting trasportation to work an such? Ahh, the simple pleasures of budgetting.....maybe I'll "sync" this decision up to my past places and get one closer to work and just come to terms with being isolated "way out there", away from town.....
