I acknowledge that there are people in the world who are smarter than I am... who have more objective opinions than I do... etc. However, I refuse to be addressed in a way that denies my personhood... denies the validity of my position on certain topics.

I refused to be manipulated in a way that acknowledges my being some kind of second class citizen.

Grr....

I've found that it's often the smartest people who are the least able to conduct discussions without being asses about it. Care to go into details?
freddyg:
intelligence counts for nothing, and i mean that, nothing. its nice to be smart and all, but it doesnt necessarily lend itself to being a decent human being.

makes me wonder about the world. why are there people like that?

Lots of movies.

I watched Igby Goes Down, Lost in Translation and Punch-Drunk Love this weekend. They were all quite good and almost make me feel bad for cancelling my Netflix membership. I decided to cancel, though, because I will spend less if I actually have to go out and rent the movies. Besides, I've got to pay the SG subscription.

Well, I never would have realized you had replied to my comment in your journal if you hadn't written a completely unrelated reply to me. It's a touchy situation.

Sorry about that - I hope you don't hold grudges over a social faux pas. wink

On the relaxation front, I have found an appropriate outlet other than freddyg. I've done a lot since Saturday night. I might be done tomorrow, but I still reserve the right to freak out. eeek

not the weight of the world, just the weight of one small company smile

btw: justin got all pissy on me about the "not putin' out" thing, and went and found himself a chick to replace me. wink

I'm such a tool.

I haven't struck anyone in anger in about eight years. I did tonight. My feelings were supremely hurt and my reaction was to lash out. I don't understand that and I really don't like it.

I think I want to cry now.

Sometimes a situation gets so intense that you revert to primal instincts. And you can't argue with your glands.

The bad part is that your rational half still has to deal with the consequences. Hope you get through it all right.
angelfuckaz:
Yeah I really wish people would grow up and start acting their age. I hope every thing works out for you with the anger. biggrin Some times I just wonder if the world is only full of assholes.

Six days into the bathroom fiasco and I'm told I have another four to go. Fuckin ridiculous. Smelly men inviting themselves into my bedroom everyday for the past six is not my idea of happy goodness. No no no. At least my sink is back in place. Woohoo, I can brush my teeth again.

Anyway, I watched the Apprentice with my roommates tonight. Man, that...

No O.C., your missing out. wink

Sorry about your bathroom. frown

I'm feeling better about the world today. I'm a little more secure in schoolthings. Now my mission is to comprehend just how much I have to do in the next year so I can get my Master's degree.
(This is both exciting and scary!)

If I could be honest, I would. Such extravagance, however, is not currently offered to me. The current trend in psychological therapy is to "share." Share our thoughts, our feelings. I'd rather not share because that entails vulnerability entails accountability entails feeling estranged. I'm not down with that.

Alternatively, I had a good weekend. It involved discovering the Tucson Museum of Art and the community...

i have to agree with your analogy, we can not see the choices made by any individual, past or present, but only the results of those choices. perhaps the only difference is that with people alive today, we may be able to reach a more concrete understanding through deep explanation directly from the individual. but i still believe that we have so many things about ourselves that we dont understand, that in most cases, even the individual in question cannot completely convey the underlying cause of their choices.

i do agree that at some point (different for everyone) we should be able to reach an understanding of ourselves. part of the problem is that i think that it is just recently (in the human evolution) that people have really wanted to understand themselves, and we dont know how to figure that out yet (as a population)

to break it down, i agree with everything you said. its a matter of degree, i think i have less faith in the knowing of oneself, than you do.

You worry me my dear. I still miss you and the spring is slowly gaining ground here. Are you still considering a visit in April?

My brain is all fuzzy and spinny. Kind of a like a cotton candy machine but with less stickiness. My brain is blue cotton candy.

In other news, I have been preapproved for a Platinum Visa, I can get a free lifetime membership to old lady porn, I am out of tortilla chips, my shirt is red and I don't feel like doing my homework.

fuzzy and spinny eh? sounds like you should just relax and expect to float somewhere that isn't quite reality for a while. *hugs* you are beyond adorable as usual.

I really loathe doing stupid things. Today's stupidity culminated in my arriving an hour late for class. Yes, after three weeks of classes, I thought today's class started an hour later than it did. Wow. Ten points for me.

But other things are going well. I just hope I don't screw up my school terribly. That would be so very bad.

And now... for...
