I miss my fish but he also doesn't like me anymore. I am getting caught up with my TODOs though, I am only behind a little now. But after that, is my budget planner and that will also take a while to get caught up on.

I understand that, I have turned people into "projects" as far as my TODOs are concerned but.. ah I guess I am being greedy with my paper. I am like, " I don't want to waste my paper on you. "

I used to write plans for different parts for my game, advert strategies, crowdfunding strategies, social media management, or asset creation. Also lesson plans, licensing requirements, document retrieval, "errands" if you will.

Now the only thing that is written is to cater to what they might need while in my home. It is weird. As I said before, I don't really focus on the interior decoration. Even if I had the money or energy to do so, I don't want to invest in decorating the walls or adding anything to this dwelling. If anything I want to remove a lot of things and keep it even more simplistic.

This song is from the Christian Bale movie where he works for the government to burn all of the artwork. Similarly to how Hitler burned a bunch of books and art during Nazi occupation.

a scene from the movie Equilibrium

In a futuristic world, a regime has eliminated war by suppressing emotions: books, art and music are strictly forbidden and feeling is a crime punishable by death. Cleric John Preston is a top-ranking government agent responsible for destroying those who resist these rules. When he misses a dose of Prozium, a mind-altering drug that hinders emotion, Preston, who has been trained to enforce strict laws of the new regime, suddenly becomes the one capable of overthrowing it.

Everyone thinks that the soldier who stood up was on drugs, but in fact, he probably wasn't. And because of that, he remembered exactly what was going on; Humanity is a heavy burden.

I could support someone who doesn't necessarily want to support a war that.. well quite frankly, broke it's own rules.

Mm.. yea I think I went too far with that one, but it was a nice mind trip.

Ah is it the Gemini? Geez. I forget they named an Ai after that.

I am talking about a human or someone born on earth. Sure, there can be other beings born under this sign, of course. But it is harder to chart say, a plant or something else like that. You wouldn't know what would be the gestation period of the plant. " Is it when the leaves show up from the ground? "

That would technically be when it could feed itself. It wouldn't require the nutrients from the ground. It could live off the light for a while. There is also hydroponic germination, when there is no soil. It is just living on the minerals in the water. I guess either way, when the seed shell cracks and when the plant emerges, that is perhaps when we would count it.

A current reading is disturbing me, especially since someone I consider a stalker is trying to add me to Facebook right now. It is warning:

" They are making up memories that don't exist. This is not normal behavior at all. But what I get is that they told some sort of lie, that came from an egoistical place. "

I worry about that. I worried about that with the french guy. It sort of disturbed me that his wife was also named Kayla so I told him to call me Hana, just so that there were no confusions. He didn't respect that. I mean, I dunno why, but he didn't.

I am now worried, that my stalker is probably doing something similar, telling people things that are completely untrue.

I reached my word count, so I'll make another story.
