feeling a little better today.
a *little*
some temporary relief.
You tell me: 'Life is hard to bear.'
But if it were otherwise, why would
you have your pride in the morning
and your resignation in the evening?
Life is hard to bear: But do not
pretend to be so tender! We are all
of us pretty fine asses and asses
of burden! What have... Read More
RE: "i sing to myself all the time when i think that i am alone, and thus have very many similar experiences..."
Sometimes, I can convince some of the older women on staff here to dance with me if I'm singing an old enough song. "Swinging on a Star" will usually get them.
p.s., don't let AdamBalm woo you with Little Debbie. Let me tell you, I was SlimDavid8 before that little frosted minx entered my life.
Thanks for picking me up. I'll try to keep the schizotypal non sequiturs and glossolalia toned down until you're comfortable with them. (Ha, ha, ha ah ha. I kid: it's all nonsense, all the time from me)
i agree with AdamBalm, put in yer 2 weeks.... then take some vacation days during that 2 weeks. oi.
we need to kiggit. i believe there will be some ruckus to be had on sunday at dante's. ya' dig?
take it easy.
there used to be a few things i knew for certaian about myself.
i used to be something.
i used to...
there are a lot of ways to finish that sentence.
maybe i will just leave it unfinished.
As i worked today, steadily with a mostly empty mind, thoughts crept in.
'how much longer will i do this'
'what if i cant afford to quit'... Read More
hey yo:
last year was not a "waste." you spent time doing what you feel/know now wasn't the right thing for you to be doing. in that, you learned something about you. you learned what doesn't make you happy. and that is just as important as learning what does make you happy. therefore, last year = unwasted. self discovery = good.
"if you slog through life, doing this you dont like because you feel obligated. things you could change but decide not to."
this is very human. which is ok. good even. change is scary, and i don't think its so much that you've flatly decided to turn your back on it... just that for what ever reason, you've put up some sort of emotional blockade. you are the one standing in the path of your own happiness. from my perspective, it seems like a financial matter. money IS important... but, as they say, it ain't everything. fuck your job. quit. your are smart and resourceful. you have good friends, good family and people who generally love and care for you. i know for a fact that there are people in this world (*hint hint*) who would stop at nothing to see you happy. so, say you quit your job & you can't find another one to save your life (theres no way that'll happen btw), i'm sure that there are people who will have your back.
...and if it's not your job thats got you down, quit doing whatever else it is thats making you so blue, and still, you've got good people who gotchyo back.
i'm not wrong. i may be over simplifying, but i'm not wrong.
i wish i could say something positive or hopeful about the new year, but really i am just scared and pessimistic. i dont think this year will be better than last.
it won't be. there really is no question about it... unless, of course, you make up your mind for it to be better... well, then there is a possibility...
And I went crazy again today,
Looking for a strand to climb
Looking for a little hope
Baby said he couldn't stay, wouldn't put his lips to mine,
And a fail to kiss is a fail to cope
I said, "Honey, I don't feel so good, don't feel justified
Come on put a little love here in my void," - he said
"It's all in... Read More
trying to forget the events of this past year.
it isn't easy.
trying to move past the things i can't control.
the things that are in the past.
the people that aren't in my life anymore.
i have a hard time letting people go.
i let so very few people in. they all mean so much to me.
the librarian in particular.
i have a... Read More
ok, im pretty sure i saw you coming in as i was walking out?
we got there early to save seats. everyone else was late. when they showed up, the show was sold out. we decided to just go next door and have a drink. i gave up the seats i was saving and when i walked out into the lobby, they were all coming in. i had already lost the seats. they decided to stand in the back row. i was irritated and went to go next door. as i was walking out, i think i saw you with a friend. after i cooled down, i realized i could not get back in to the show
life just keeps getting harder
keeps getting harder to hide
darker it is around me
easier it is to see inside
and outside the glass
the whole world is magnified
and it's half an inch
from here to the other side
i search your profile
for a translation
i study the conversation
like a map
'cause i know there is strength
in the differences... Read More
