Arrogance irks me more than anything else. I don't why that is; there are other traits that should be more repellant to me, but the arrogant have always gotten to me more than anyone else. I've seen so much of it from our illustrious president that I can't even stand to look at his picture or hear his voice anymore lest I should be physically sick. I'm definitely seeing a lot of it now whenever I'm stupid enough to read internet comments on sports or political blogs.

Speaking of sports, I think they've become a bit too important to me over the past few months. I still don't really know anyone here in town outside of my family, my girlfriend is still stuck in Indiana (though that may finally be changing, despite the best efforts of her parents to keep her there), all I do is work, and I've hardly had time to do any writing (or a place in which to do it, which is really what I think I miss the most about home). Because of all this, sports has kind of been my release. It's been that in years past, but now I'm placing too much emphasis on it. It's not a release anymore; I feel horrible when one of my teams loses, or when a team I don't like wins, and I used to just be able to shrug and then go off to Chumley's to do some writing, have a few drinks, maybe see a friend or two that would inevitably be there at some point in the night. I can't do that here in Austin.

Because of all this, whenever I read or hear an arrogant fan of one team or another I don't like or one my team is playing against, I get more upset than I should. Thankfully tonight I was able to just close out the internet window I had of ESPN.com and try to study for the GRE (which I'm taking Tuesday, sandwiched in between a 32-hour work week, not counting my Friday night high school football coverage for the Austin American-Statesman). I need a Chumley's, and I need people I can talk to about writing and books and movies and everything else I love besides sports. And I need to see my girlfriend again. Soon.

Anyone else have a problem like this?
