I'm sorry for those of you who feel lonely today. I'm alone but not lonely, so I don't sympathize, but I do care.

So my housemate, bless her heart, has been trying to set me up for well over a year now. It didn't take me long to find out that she's not a good matchmaker. She was looking for who she would want to date, not who I would. So after a long string of wrongs came one right girl, except that she had a boyfriend. Well, they recently broke up. Then my housemate was saying it would be nice for me to make sure the girl isn't all by herself on V-day! I don't know about you, but I think a V-day first date is a really bad idea! What pressure!

Then there's this girl I've been kinda dating. We get along really well, but they physical chemistry's not there (for me, I may just not see it because I'm inhibited by my anxieties.) We talked about it and she said she likes things how they are. That's great! I love hanging out with her, but I didn't really want to get involved with her at this point in my life. She's long-term material, and I can't think of anything but short-term right now. Think of me as having arrested development, and dating-wise, I'm still a teenager. I've still got things to do before I settle down!

I'm worried about my dad's health, more than usual. He had a planned blood transfusion Tuesday, and the nurse said he looked gray. He's had diarrhea for five days this week, slept for 34 hours straight at one point, has extreme pain in his hand, and got a stress fracture in his arm while travelling.
