eh.
hi, everybody! what's up? yes, i am alive. wonder of wonders. happy new year.
i get tired and pissed off sometimes. do you know what i mean? i mean, those of you reading this who are queer - do YOU know what i mean? sometimes i get tired of explaining myself, and qualifying my place in society. i get tired of saying "partner" when talking about my wife, which sounds way less official or important than "wife," but i refrain from saying "wife" because of the raised eyebrows and the "she must think she's normal" or "maybe she thinks she's a man" or "a wife can't be a wife of a wife" or some SHIT. normally i'm not this bothered by such an exchange, but for some reason, this morning it's PISSING ME OFF.
know what else pisses me off? women who constantly have to put other women down. why does this happen? why are women so mean to each other? i mean, is that really necessary? so i've been doing well and i'm enjoying social work school, and i'm happily married, and healthy, and now you've gotta make some crappy comment about how i'll "soon join the ranks of the burned out social workers." fuck you. you don't know anything about me or my profession.
