"You may still have the keys...
But I'm stealing the vehicle. I'll hotwire the damn thing if I have to."
It's an interesting thing to know that you always CAN steal something back.
If you steal something that was originally yours...is it really stealing? Is it just a matter of re-claiming?
And if you keep something long enough, that you have stolen, how long until it becomes yours?
Does this amount of time change if the object was yours to begin with?
I'm being thoughtful today. And very public.
Which I think will be my new thing. Anything relating to specific personal matters I might post under lock...
but I feel like I've been cheating at this whole internet journal thing. The only people who read it are people I know anyway, and if someone did happen to stumble on it...I would hope to have something more interesting to say than betraying friends and loved ones and complaining about them behind their backs or telling their secrets - even if it is to people who they don't know and will never meet.
In any case, I'm determined to make September the start of a new year and a new life. New house, new job, no longer a student, no longer going back and forth with a certain ex-boyfriend, no longer feeling guilty about moving on with my life, no longer wasting my life watching television all day, becoming artistic and creative again - I haven't been for so long, becoming fun again - something I also have been failing at lately, being interested in things and passionate about things again. In general, I want to have a life again, and to like it.
So, I guess, expect less ridiculous drama, and more "Today I baked a chicken! Here's how it turned out!" or "I watched the news today, and this is how I feel about X". Now I'm not entirely giving up on the more personal matters, but I'm trying to give them a backseat to other things.
This should be interesting...
