Finished A Clockwork Orange today. Interesting read. By the end, I understood exactly what he was saying with the weird slang. Funny how that works. Still, it was an interesting read. Shit. I said that already.

Now on to 1984, which I last read in high school. I'm running rampant through dystopias lately. A Clockwork Orange, Battle Royale and The Road for books. For movies, I just sat down and watched the entire Matrix trilogy the other night and Equilibrium not long before that. The Island is calling to me, too.

BIG BROTHER IS WATCHING YOU.

Whatever. Perhaps it's the weather. We've had scant days of sunshine as of late, and most of the precipitation has been snow. It rained today. It's raining right now. I don't mind. It's not bitterly cold. I walked across town this morning to apply for a job on campus. The rain was nice. My Zune is fixed now. That's also nice. Rain plus working Zune equals very nice.

I've stumbled across some songs I like immensely. "Wreath of Barbs" by Wumpscut is one. I mentioned that one in my last journal. "Into the Escape" by Conjure One is another, as is "Danny the Dog" by Massive Attack. They're curious tune, perfect for walking in the rain, methinks or laying in the spring grass watching the stars revolve overhead. Perfect.

I started parkour in addition to rock climbing. I figure parkour will work my legs, endurance and core while climbing will work my arms, back and core. It seems like a pretty brilliant solution to boring traditional workouts. I'm pleased with it. I'd like to find someone to do parkour with me.
