Throw these books at the fire.
I've been sitting here for about fifteen minutes, trying to figure out what I want to say, but the words that show up on the screen are nothing close to an adequate representation of how I actually feel. The inability to convey thoughts and feelings is quickly becoming a source of frustration - it's been close to a month since I've written anything, mostly because I can't seem to get started. But now I've got a whole paragraph here in front of me, so I guess that's better than nothing, right?
With a few notable exceptions, I find myself more and more irritated, disappointed, and disgusted with people that I meet. Actually, I suppose that's not entirely correct, because some of the people that have managed to get under my skin are people I've known for a long time. People that I've grown close to, people that I've trusted, people that I've cared about. People that I never expected would let me down or disappoint me. Funny how that works, isn't it?
I'm a firm believer in the idea that if everyone would just communicate with each other and be honest, the world would be a much better place. It sounds so simple, but apparently it's just about the most complicated concept to have ever existed. People seem much more willing to just stop communicating altogether rather than to just be up front and tell someone what's going on. And that sucks.
Christ, I'm in a bad mood. At least I'm hanging out with Kate tonight, so I can rest assured that I will not end the night being pissed off or disappointed in a friend's complete lack of character. In fact, Kate's complete lack of character is one of the very things our friendship is based on.
That was a joke.
