I guess I’ve been meaning to do something like this for awhile. Whether it be nonsense musings in facebook notes or melodramatic “journal entries” on an art website… I too often feel the need to say things that don’t really need to be said. Things that nobody will probably even read – especially not completely.
If I’m going to be using words like I and me and myself, however, I guess I need to qualify those terms. Like it says above: “agirlhasnoname”, but I suppose you can call me Gloria, for the purposes of this project. Or Ms. Lamptom, perhaps. Point being, my name – for the purposes of the this project – is Gloria Lampton. The person being represented by that name is a medical professional by trade, an occasional artist by hobby, and a reader and overthinker for no goddamn reason at all. I think the word “philosopher” is a little pompous for somebody that holds no degree or professional experience in the field of philosophy though.
For that reason, we can just use the title devised by Mel Brooks: Bullshit artist.
What kind of bullshit do I want to ramble on about and why? Well, again, I too often find myself rambling for no reason anyway. Writing is apparently pretty therapeutic to a lot of people, and I could probably use a little bit of that; “therapeutic”, I mean. I like to think there is perhaps a crumb of value to my thoughts, even if that value is to only get to talk to other people that are thinking similar things. Perhaps the value is even talking to those that are thinking the exact opposite. In that instance I can either learn something new and change… or I can just wind up bashing my head against my desk until a warm stream of red sticky stuff is running out of my nose and I decide it’s time to go to bed for the night.
Saving the ramblings for a later date, however: I like psychology, philosophy, religion, and politics. I could establish my personal values regarding those subjects right now, but what would be the fun in that? Suspense keeps readers flipping those pages. Hopefully I can keep people reading as well. Hopefully I can learn some things about the world and about myself from all of this.
I’m not getting any answers directly, anyway… that’s for damn sure.
Like I said, I do kind of hope to get to “talk” to some new people, so email me:
