SO. I was pouring over the differences between myself now and myself, say, four or five years ago. I don't know about the rest of you, but I am amusingly similar. I realized that the biggest difference between then and now was probably that nobody knows how I feel now. Not in the classic teenage "nobody understands me" sort of way, but in the much less optimistic "i have no one to share my thoughts with" sort of way.
And here I am, a little stung by the ever-dwindling list of friends but empowered by the same idyllic promise of electronic community that the media assumes so many people are consciously giving themselves over to just to say, "hey guys, I'm going to lurk for a while and mess with my layout, but don't be too surprised if I start pretending that I'm comfortable with this avenue of communication. also, why the heck is it still so hot??"
yeah, looks like I still can't take anything seriously either
