[Video][Tachyon] Video #1: an update of sorts

taiya · Post by **taiya** » Sun Oct 29, 2006 11:11 pm

Here is the transcript of the first video. The I's are interesting but so are the .'s and the brackets. The justification is strange in some places too, but I didn't capture that. Sorry if there are mistakes, I haven't double checked it.

Transcript:

so I haven't updated this in awhile

and I removed all of my old videos.
(long story, but i learned my lesson)

it's nice to have fallen into a gig
that'll keep me nested in a somewhat familiar habitat...

...but I fear that is just an illusion.

at least I keep telling myself that.
but how long can i keep observing
an illusion as real before my mind
accepts it as reality?

thankfully, the weather is nice.
plenty of nature to expore. every
week I learn about new places to
go hiking or swimming...

...if and when i get that rare free
moment, I hope to have the energy
left to actually prioritize that!
(double optimism)

all summer, the momentum of my
day-to-day demands has kept me
feeling like I am trapped in a state
of exhausted motion

[irony noted]

at least it's helping me ignore just
how surreal I should find all of this,
and i am ignoring it quite well.

i am trying to approach it as my
ability to keep up with these
demands directly reflects qualities
of my inner self...

...and my inner self has a fierce
determination to be able to watch
the World Series this year.

right now, nothing sounds better
than an actual game. I could use an
excuse to try out some obscene
gestures i've acquired

but given that I was so
overwhelmed with busy work
yesterday that i had to be reminded
that it was already the Fall Equinox...

I am going to try and keep my
expectations realistic. Believe me,
I know that the closest i may get is
watching it on live TV.

I am glad at least that I found the
time to write a little tonight.

i should remind myself to do it
more often.

I've had a long day, so i'm off to let
my mind focus on a fantasy that
actually might show even greater
optimism on my part...

[and believe me, if i could help
make it happen I would]

but I'd love it if the Dodgers and the
Angels faced off next month.

but given my track record as of
late, i haven't been so hot with
most of my predictions.

[I most sincerely hope I'm due]

xoxox,

T

awesome work, Taiya. can you format the subject line of this the same way that I posted Video #3's text?

so it would be:

[Tachyon] Video #1: "an update of sorts" TEXT

just trying to keep the forum tidy so we can make sense of the threads!

taiya · Post by **taiya** » Sun Oct 29, 2006 11:15 pm

Yeah, sorry. I just realized I did it wrong. How do I change the title now?

Edit: Just figured it out. Subject changed. Is that okay Covedweller?

so i'm just a lurker around here i mostly read around and stuff but i read everyone is analyzing tachyon and after reading this transcript i was wondering what she meant by "obscene gestures she's acquired"? what gestures and from where has she acquired them? also when it says her predictions have been a little off lately it just sounds wierd to me like if she has this extra power and someone uses it but lately she's been of no use to whoever it is she's with.

sorry if i'm going off on a tangent and if my thoughts make no sense i was just wondering somethings that seemed odd in the transcript especially after her other two videos i saw..............

just hit the EDIT button on the right of your post (up near the top of the message box with your post in it while looking at the thread).

it's right next to QUOTE on a thread you post.

Why is this video signed XOXOX, whilst the others are signed XOXO? Could this be some sort of key?
