"...but to most of us there comes, sooner or later, a period when the longing for change dies out, and a fixed place and an unalterable condition become the great central ideas of existence. We look back with a wonder that is almost incredulousness upon the time when a ride by railway was the dream of weeks preceding, and try in vain to realize the...

Hey come join my group Johnny Depp 
Showing new people my apartment is always a strange treat, especially when it comes down to my room. The eclectic blend of nic-naks sitting about my desk, two six foot book shelves loaded to the point of over flowing with reading material, a collection of keys, each hanging on it's own tack on the wall in seemingly random locations; these are what you're liable to...

i used to get the same surprised reactions...only my apartment looked like a teenagers room or something i guess...since i collect all of these action figures and having standees of various characters in such...i definitely did NOT have dull rooms

I get that look when they see all the boxes of books lying around.
"When did you move in?"
April 2003.
"Oh."

That was quite a night, folks. And, while the outcome of this whole thing was not what I would have desired, I definitely have learned a bit more about our country as a whole.
Particularly in Michigan, though, I'm disappointed. Proposal 2 saw Michiganders against gay marriage, and this honestly comes as a shock to me. 99% of the people I know are FOR gay...

No, there's nothing local. Infact I believe that they downsized in LA since I lived there. They were pretty huge then.
I've been thinking of this as a business opportunity for a while, but I don't have much $$ for starting up this sort of thing..

Does anyone think it would be at all possible to start a safe and legal alcohol delivery service in this country?

Hey guys and gals. What did I miss?
Yeah, my online life finally reached an unacceptable level of boredom. Come on, I didn't think I'd last a week out there let alone more than a month.
However, I did get some things accomplished.
I'm almost scared to jump in on this "dating profile" business. I've always been slightly itchy about putting the fact that I'm...

Welcome back. I should'a known you couldn't stay away! 
Last day at The Panty Palace. Wish me luck folks. Hopefully it will be busy. Time flies when you're looking at boobs.
And holy schmeckle, I've about drained my bank account on some rather reckless spending as of late. Bewteen renting anywhere from two to three games or movies a day and having 7-11 dinners every night, I've managed to plow through about $100 in...

Yes, I'm going.
evanx:
Myself and Painjunkie06 will be going again.
Yeah...well, that about does it for my ugly mug. I can only take so much of my own narcissism. It's bad enough I have to deal with the sudden fashion trend of the self-absorbed "emo culture" that thrives in my local mall.
Perhaps you'd say I've been keeping to myself a lot more lately. Maybe I'd agree. I suppose it's good to share your thoughts...

I had to read that three times to grasp it.

I have a feeling certain higher-ups in my company might be looking to shut my store down. From a financial point of view, the company probably wouldn't gain or lose anything by doing so. However, my Distric Manager has the most stores to manage in the country, and she's not happy about this at all. Two of the stores in the district have already been...

wow, i am imagining Sean Penn portraying you in the movie... walking into the meeting, throwing down a pile of documents and photographs, and bursting into an impassioned speech about corporate ineptness. then he unwraps a PayDay and stares menacingly at his challengers while munching on the tasty caramel and peanuts.
After much discussion, Jessica and I have decided to be friends. So, I am once again single, but not necessarily loving it. I have a feeling I might be too "critical" when selecting potential mates, and in some sense, this is preventing me from having some possibly great relationships. Then again, I am the Master Of Mistakes, so I do have a reputation to uphold....

I sound in my journal like I don't get along with my brother, but I do. I even helped him move last week, when he decided at the last minute that he couldn't go it alone after all. I just don't like his proclivity for sanctimony, which I have to admit, exists largely in my imagination as it dreads the conversation that still hasn't taken place.
I like the balance of girl to game in this entry of yours.

Well, there is the Burlesque in June!
I feel like I should be apologizing for my lack of participation on the site lately. I'm here, I'm just not posting much. The passive interaction of reading and chuckling to myself once in awhile seems to suffice my SG needs as of late. So please, don't think I'm hating on anyone. I've just lost concern in any sort of "volume-based" status on here and...

you're wondering if you can change things, so i gather the problem isn't the intellectual aspect of the communication, but the quality of the communication itself... getting her to express herself... is this correct?
i would talk to her about it. she's no doubt aware that she doesn't open up very well, and maybe she'd love to be able to but doesn't know how. it wouldn't be like she was "drastically changing" just for the relationship, but for herself as well. of course, if she's comfortable with herself like this, then it would be pointless to take that frustrating path.
yeah, it would require a lot of effort, but it would be worth it if she's The One -- or has that potential. i don't know... it's early in the relationship and easy to bail, but with some work maybe this could turn out to be something really special.
how does it feel to you? go with your gut.
Fides.

You have said everything you need to know in this entry.
You are not happy in this relationship.
End it and be friends, because you will meet someone who stimulates you intellectually. Just wait for them to show themselves.
It should be special from the beginning and then get even better as you get to know each other.
If I'm mistaken and this is the case, then stick with it, but
I don't feel any of that from your journal.
