I was going to update a few days ago but I logged in to read my friends page, immediately wanted to rip out people's ability to speak (or type) and then just ended up x'ing out before I did and said things that I would have normally bit my tongue on. Then Jason told me I should never bite my tongue if I felt that passionately about something so... Perhaps it's as I grow and age more than I'm becoming more of a mother type that doesn't find the need to be so callous and mean for attention anymore, I don't know... I'm not so grossly insecure that I have to cover it with loud and mean declarations towards anyone within arms reach. But I don't think ANYONE has a right to tell someone how they should feel and how they should handle their emotions. All this Hurricane Katrina stuff is dividing friendships right down the middle it seems, and all because some people think it's their God-given right to instruct people on how they should behave regarding it. People cope differently. People relate things to their lives so they CAN cope. If it's so annoying to you, God forbid you scroll past and don't read it. God forbid you turn off the television or don't read the newspaper if it's so "annoying" to you. Instead, some people feel the need to get on their soapbox and preach to a bunch of people that they should not feel the way they do, and if they deal with it in another way, they are assholes and selfish ones at that, and I'm sorry but that's just wrong and fucking stupid. You are no better than anyone else, your opinions are no better than anyone else's and maybe I'm being really country bumpkin about this, but DON'T JUDGE PEOPLE. Everyone does, I understand, but for crying out loud, does it really bother you that much to read about people's feelings concerning a national tragedy? So much that you can't just scroll down and read the trivial things you find much more interesting and worthwhile? Livejournal is so easy to fly off the handle on immediately and it's all instant-gratification concerning quick spitfire emotions like anger that it's almost laughable. As soon as you get angry while you're reading your friendspage, instead of doing the rational thing and keep skimming past it, two clicks later you're updating about what a bunch of stupid assholes your "friends" are for writing about their feelings in their own journals. Well, newsflash, you're all the assholes. Shut the fuck up and get your heads out of your asses and stop thinking you're so important that you can't be saddened or upset by anything and express that. God forbid you be human. I suppose we should all operate just like you and hate everything in life and bitch bitch bitch because that is SO much better, right? Grow up. That's all I have to say. Just grow up.
I'm exhausted, I have been staying up all night lately for no apparent reason and sleeping past noon. I wake up every morning with a sore throat, EVERY MORNING, I don't know what the problem is but it's getting a little unnerving to deal with. I can hear Jason chanting "Let's go to the doctor" right now. I probably will this week, because there is nothing more lingering and annoying than a chronic sore throat. Well, I'm sure there is but I am a woman of simplicity my friends. Or maybe I can just suck on Luden's all day tomorrow, I love those.
I really don't have anything to say. As evidence to just how poor we really are, Jason and I ate black beans and rice tonight for dinner... you know, the kind you're supposed to use an an accent to a huge meal?? Only... we lacked the huge meal... lmao, what is our life, really? It was fucking good though so I don't care. We also took turns eating hardboiled eggs with salt, I feel like I'm giving birth to a baby with how bloated THAT made my stomach. That, or like Paul Newman in Cool Hand Luke OMG I love that movie, he's so hot. Did any of you know that Prozac Nation actually came out in movie?? I had been waiting so patiently ever since I heard it was being made, which was years ago, and I never once heard or saw an ad for it, so maybe it went direct to DVD but we rented it and only a few minutes in I saw Christina Ricci's tits. Which means THUMBS UP from me! She looks like a weird fucked up porcelain doll, and I'm sure I'm the fifty millionth person to say that about her. I think I'll go watch the rest and pray she gets naked again. I am the best girlfriend ever.
