Beef Manhattan of the Soul
Trying to finish this project that has been plaguing me for weeks now. Seems to take me four hours to write two paragraphs. Truly excruciating.
Anyway, as I was writing, I started a sentence that was one of the few not to make it into the paper:
There may be some mitigating factors in the otherwise grim and unremitting life of the pseudo-intellectual seminarian.
(I added the seminarian bit after I decided against keeping the sentence). At 3 AM, this seemed blog-worthy, but that was probably just my desperation for some means of procrastination.
As to mitigating factors, I suppose blogging is one of them, although I spend much more time reading others’ blogs than writing my own.
