(no subject)
I have been thinking a lot lately. Maybe a bit too much.
It's funny how much I can relate to Greek...which I am sitting in Panera watching, because I have nothing better to do at the moment...and because I was at the library and it apparently closes at 5 on Friday instead of 8 like it does every other day...which was a problem since i didn't get there til 4:45.
Anyway, I am watching last weeks episode which, like all the other episodes really, is about relationships. There is a character who is in a relationship that has decided now is his time to not be tied down and to try things out. I think I'm in the opposite situation. I am not in a relationship but I am ready for one. There is probably a whole lot more I could say about that, but I just don't want to get into it right now.
There is another character that is trying to speed date - which is really a silly concept, but that's not the part I relate to. He is having a hard time finding a date because his ex-girlfriend is the bar he uses to measure other girls. He can't let go of the past so he can't be happy and find somebody right now. I do that. I don't know if I'll ever be able to get rid of my bar. I don't even know how. Or if it's a good idea? Shouldn't there be some sort of measure or standard for the people you date, or are willing to date? But, then again, comparing them to another person probably isn't the best idea because nobody can ever live up to the ideal that we keep in our heads.
Also, the main character is dating a guy who just made a reference to playing world of warcraft on his lunch breaks in high school. I'm a little weirded out about the fact that I knew exactly what they were talking about when they mentioned rogues and raids and such. But I can also relate really well to being attracted to a guy like that....the stereotype that the show is trying to fill in that character - because that has always been the guy I drift towards - and probably always will be.
Wise words from Cappie: "you can always go back to your soulmate - that's what makes them your soulmate"
but, then again, that raises the question of whether there really is just one person for each of us and all that kind of stuff. i don't want to think about that right now. i already have enough on my mind - both personally and professionally and spiritually.
i should be vacating panera now...i've been sitting here for two hours now......
