Blah blah blah, whine about unrequited love, blah blah blah blah, self-loathing disguised as overconfidence disguised as self-loathing, blah blah, mildly amusing anecdote about coworkers, blahblahblahblahblahblah....

*sigh*

I am not a mechanism, an
assembly of various sections
And it is not because the mechanism
is working wrongly that I am ill

I am ill because of wounds to the soul
to the deep emotional self...

So i finally gave in. I'm running Windows right now, because i really really really wanted to listen to a song and i still can't get sound working in Linux.

I feel dirty.
coliwali:
Only because you are.
supergp:
MWUAHAHAH! JOIN THE UNWASHED HORDES!

Er, there's no shame in running Linux. Those dorks aren't going to make me ashamed of my OS.

So i wrote this long letter to BeautifulGirl about how i thought it was really important for her to allow people to love her and help her, rather than pushing them away - i told her not to be afraid of me; that i couldn't promise that i'd never turn my back on her, being human, but that the only way to avoid that risk...

Well, give it time, but don't give it so much time that it doesn't happen. This seems the wisest course.

Also, nothing is this weekend.

So that was weird.

I played DDR: Extreme at Main Street vs. BeautifulGirl. She kicked my ass royally. I kept telling them i'd never played before. They wouldn't believe me till they saw my absolute lack of skillz.

NOW REVENGE IS AT HAND

So i'm thinking of getting a couple of these, and maybe a mod chip and working long hours into the night...

dude, i wanna play that. the home version is great for not publicly humiliating yourself, which is inevitable. no matter how good you are, you're still playing dance dance revolution.

Hey.....I could get a pad and an XBox and play with my projector!

So i smoked my last cigarette just now. I went outside with my dog, Cookie, and sat in the middle of the street thinking about BeautifulGirl. It was so dark with the new moon and the cloud cover that the cherry was the only thing i could see, apart from Cookie's occasional wanderings to and fro. I rolled out the cherry and watch it burn...

You are this cigarette- being consumed by flame until you are no more, existing only to poison for a short time and then go.
squishylizards:
all of the cigarette metaphors are just reminding me of something we used to say in high school...."ah, to place one's lips tenderly upon the butt of a fag..."

So i'm pretty convinced i have a mood disorder - either Seasonal Affective Disorder, or rapid-cycle bipolarity. I wonder how i feel about that.

Going to see my folks this weekend, which has been long, long overdue.

welcome to the club!

So guess what, guys?

I must admit, my last 8 months of posts have all been a giant hoax.

I'll give that some time to sink in.

Um.....k. Melanie will be glad to hear it, I think.

Also, "Giving up the Grand" would be a better ALBUM title than a band name, I think. Although I still like "Their Self-Titled Debut Album".

So i'm waiting for rain.

Lots of change these days. Switching shifts at work, which should give me half again my current income, but will probably be about 3 times more stressful; moving in about a month; trying to learn to skateboard; thinking about switching majors to nursing.

And rain should be coming soon.

By the way, i'm not sure i agree on the whole...

You'd think after the number of times I've been through this shit, I'd have learned a little something about it. Nope!

Good luck, I guess.

Whoa, what a cool fuckin' day.

So i wake up at about this time last night because it's well, hot, and i can't really go back to sleep because i'm drenched with sweat and preoccupied besides. So i'm like, what the hell am i going to do for 3 hours before i have to go to work? I was in a really shitty mood for...

I only got a quick glance, but she was rather lovely!
Screw fun. Work is everything.

Screw work. Fun is something.

I don't have the greatest track record in the not-going-crazy-when-girl-not-interested. But yeah, once you've laid it out there, you're pretty much done. Sorry! frown

I swear to God i had this Life thing down not two months ago. What the hell happened to me?

I used to know all the things i wanted to accomplish, and the exact order in which i wanted to accomplish them; now i can't settle down on one solid goal for more than half a day.

I used to be pretty content more than...

Love sucks, first of all. If it were controllable, even a little bit, that would be different.

But, in my experience, love is like a rollercoaster, baby. All you can do, once you've sat down in the chair, is close your eyes and let it force you to throw up.

And you've sat, so just go for it at this point.

Oh, and she's pretty hot, and seems like a cool enough girl to boot, so don't worry so much.
coliwali:
Dude, calm down. Youre not the first guy to have an unreturned attraction to a girl. In fact, you may have noticed, its pretty common among our little social circle. So, let me ask you a dumb question. Have you actually told her how you feel about her?

Do you ever go back and read all your old entries? God it can be embarrassing. I wonder, if i had the sort of insight into the present that i have into the past, would i be just as embarrassed about the things i'm saying/thinking/doing now?

supergp:
No. The past is the past. No use crying over spilled horses, or closing the barn door AFTER the milk has escaped. Or something.
haskalmighty:
Okay, squishylizards, good point. People reading my old entries was the exact opposite of my intended effect.

So BeautifulGirl is in kind of a shitty mood lately partly because one of her best friends turns out to have a meth problem. Which kind of puts me in a shitty mood because ultimately i'm not sure there's a whole lot we can do for this girl. She's not going to be able to make rent this month (BG's friend, Hilda) and will probably...

well, in any case, can't wait to meet the young lady.

that whole situation sounds awfully familiar. i have a friend in the same boat, and ther is nothing that we can do, because he isn't willing to make an effort. he just stopped caring about himself. if you figure out how to wake this girl up, i could sure use some pointers
