So yeah, I think I should drink beer more often.
You know how different booze gives people a different type of being drunk? For example, most boys get really jerky when they drink whiskey. Well, last night at CTO, I was drinking pitchers of Bud because Jeremy and I were trying to spend the least amount of money on booze as possible, and I got a really great-feeling kind of drunk from it. And I also turn into a dance machine when I drink beer apparently. I think that the sweet motown sounds also had something to do with that. Man, I need to go to Mo' Gravy mo' often. I always forget how much I love that stuff.

Also, I went to Cafe One for the first time last night. Yes, J. popped my Cafe One cherry. I'm sure he's happy to do it, even if it's just a proverbial cherry. Anyway, I hadn't been there before and I'm a big fan of dark little hole-in-the-wall cafes, so it was a hit with me. Even though I spent over $20 on a glass of wine and a plate of smoked salmon with rice and veggies, it was well worth it.

I was half-filling out a survey yesterday and quit part-way through, but one of the questions was something like "What have you learned so far in life?" Sure it was a vague question, but after thinking about some things for the past little while, I'll tell you one thing I've learned so far in life, especially recently:

I have learned that people are going to believe what they want to believe. They are going to ignore the blatantly obvious truth and just blindly hurt themselves. Some people even say specifically that they would rather not hear the truth. Even when it's right there in front of their faces. And yet, they think the whole world owes them something, somehow. Even when you try to protect people from themselves, it's not worth the trouble because 100% of the time, people don't want to hear it.
I'm losing a huge amount of respect for some people, even some of my friends, because they don't fucking respect themselves. Why should I respect you if you don't have the capacity to learn from your mistakes? How can I respect someone who victimizes themself and then acts like the whole world is battling against them? It's completely asinine.

If you're going to sit there simmering in your shit stew, shouting to the world that they owe you better, maybe it's time to think about taking charge of your life and stop blaming everyone but yourself for your problems.

I can't stand it when people constantly feel sorry for themselves.
