Creepy Old Men

I got dragged out to go see North Country the other day. It's one of those movies that's based on a true story and I'm always of two minds when it comes to watching movies like that. On one hand you know that it's not going to have the thrill factor as some slap-dash movie with a million explosions and guns, but on the other hand you know that you ( Read more... )

There's this one thing that I'd really like to get accomplished before I turn 26. Which... gives me a bit under 4 years to do it. Though every time I look at what I want to do, it just seems so daunting that it's kind of off-putting. Mm... I get the feeling that this isn't going to be one of those things I'm going to be able to solo with henchies.

Well, whatever it is, I'm sure you will achieve it! You have the capacity to do a lot of things, young padawan :)

Speaking of talking to other people, it's so hard getting a hold of people whom I really want to talk to. They all seem to be lost in their own little world with their own problems to deal with. Not that I have much of a right to complain about that kind of thing, but still... It'd just be nice hear from them a bit more often. Or is it just that the only reason I want to hear from them more is because I hardly hear from them at all?

This is something that's been getting my proverbial goat the last couple of months. Supposedly key people in my life just completely obliterated themselves, much like a foolhardy W/Mo if you want a geeky analogy. Subsequently any attempt to contact them or start a conversation has proved all but fruitless. Whether it is because my energies and theirs no longer could cohabit, there was nothing left to learn from one another, or the other person was so caught up in their own things, I do not know. But it happens, and it's a rather annoying part of life.
Fact is, if they arent prepared to make the time for you as much as you are prepared to make the time for them, assuming there are no extraneous circumstances for their lack of time-making-age (such as bereavement, extreme hardship, etc) it's their loss.

I know this is going to sound whiny, but it really bugs me when people don't listen when you're talking to them. You can explain yourself once, twice, half a dozen times, and they can still come back asking the same question. It's not like there's a lot of people who do that kind of thing, but it really only takes one person to get under your skin. It's just frustrating, for lack of a better word.
One more reason why I much prefer to not have to deal with other people. >_>

What? XD haha just kidding ^^.

Yeah, dealing with other people, particularly in business, can be rather irritating. Even dealing with people electronically with some of the things they ask often induces an "omg gtfo!" reaction from me. Of course, this remains rather covert under my omnipresent professional conduc-SON OF A HORSE! ROFLCOPTER!

Hope you feel better soon :) Only an MSN message or a SMS/phonecall/pigeon away if you need to talk :)

Heh heh, yeah. I think it wouldn't be so bad if people would give a straightforward reason for their withdrawl instead of trying to be nice about all the time. ._.

Yeah, all the more reason why I don't like having to deal with people. :p I know not all people are that bad, but the minority just kind of spoils it.

And thanks, that's good to know . :D
