My Post Secret
I can't tell you how many times I have wanted to title a post "Because, really? I kind of think you SUCK" Or a brief FB update: Suck it!
That may come as a surprise to those of you who see me as a calm, demure sort of girl who always knows just what to say. Ha! I even made myself laugh right then.
Thing is, my life is very good. It's so good at times that I almost feel guilty. And that was fun to read, wasn't it? Snore right there on the desk. But there are little parts of this glamorous living that get to me like paint under the nail. You know? Of course, it's always the shit that I am not supposed to talk about. (Like the fact that I HATE that cussing on the internet is somehow worse than cussing in person.)
My friend Yosi has an ongoing FB list about things he loves. It's wonderful to read because his list is so similar to things I love. It's like a tour through the good bits of your memory on a sunny day. Old man clothes, soft warm bread, well fitted gloves, the click of bicycle gears, old men in sophisticated hats, etc. It's an interesting read.
Me, I have this mental list of the crap. It's all stuff I have thought of sending in on a postcard to Post Secret.
I am annoyed that I restrain myself from making more jokes about Christianity because I view my Christian friends as far too sensitive to think them funny. Christianity IS FUNNY when you stop and think about it.
I am praying I'm past the point in my life where men think I am hitting on them when I sincerely compliment them or have more than a ten minute conversation with them. I have some sincere compliments to give, but I'm scared of freaking people out.
I often tell myself that the local women I know do not have a lot of time to talk about anything other than their kids or their marriages, but I'm not sure that's true.
I would rather spend time talking to friends 1000 miles away via the internet or my phone than trying to click in the environment I have here.
I'm not a "clicker".
People who start dropping friends from their lives because they have fallen in love with someone new really piss me off. It's one thing to not spend so much time with your buds because you are building a relationship. It's quite another to alienate old friends due to some imaginary threat they pose to your current relationship.
It's my experience that all threats of a former lover/close friend interfering in a present healthy relationship are IMAGINARY.
I know more about you than you think I do. And I am more compassionate than you think I am.
Your inability to deal with the past as a valid part of who you are today both disappoints and confuses me.
I am better with age. I thought that was bullshit, but it's not.
Seriously. God + Science = Science.
There's so much more but dinner is waiting.
Ahh, I do feel better. (:
