Desperate, lonely, and underpaid
Sometimes I worry about unconsciously repackaging ideas or phrases or something from my past. For example, I wrote this about 2 weeks ago:

I've progressively gotten more reminiscent of the good things in my past.
By progressively, I mean that the things I reminisce about slowly become more and more recent.

Today I was sad and missed a moment I had last night.
What happens when I miss something that just happened?
is it even possible to be nostalgic about something that hasn't happened yet?
What does reaching this point mean, if anything?


And this is from one of Klosterman's books I read last summer:

I find I am already reminiscent of what happened ten minutes ago....how is it even possible that I'm nostalgic about an event in the very recent past? Does this say something about how genuine I am to things I should *really* be nostalgic towards?

Sounds similar...but how original was mine? Yikes.
