I don't have time for a survey, so here's a survey

Who was the last person you texted?
I hope the font isn't screwed up this time.  It was either my brother or DeAna/Annette.

How can you prove your love to someone?
OMG...  Every time I turn off bold, it unbolds everything.  Why can't they make this work the way you'd expect it to?  Anyway, you prove your love by being there, dependable as a goddamn boring stone, until they get sick of you and leave you.  No greater love than that.  As soon as they see you're human, even if it takes 6 years, they will leave, and then you question everything about yourself and the universe.  That's how you prove your love.  You can never prove love anyway.  We're all as fickle as the leaves on trees, changing our colors and dropping in the slightest gust of wind.

What sports do you play?
I don't sport.

Who is the first person in your contacts?
Oh, this must be from when people spent time on their computers instead of their phones, and you could arrange your chat contact list?

( I don't expect anyone will read this, much less do it, but I had fun )

Annual Co-Dependence Day Post

When I was on Livejournal, I seemed to post about the 4th of July every year. Every year, I would talk about how fireworks were so romantic, and how I just wanted to share the day/night with someone. I tried to share it with her, over the last 6 years (or 5, however many there were). It was never that great. She wasn't into it, and I don't blame her. Whole thing is stupid. I guess she ruined it for me.

This year, I'm not thinking about loneliness or how romantic fireworks are. I'm just thinking how annoying they are, how they frighten people with PTSD, babies, wildlife, domestic non-humans, how they keep me awake, how I am forced to have my windows closed and my a/c running (which doesn't actually seem to work--it's hotter in here than outside!)...

How terribly American, to celebrate by being totally inconsiderate, noisy, stupid, and blowing stuff up. What a fine tradition we pass down.



Never put all your faith and money into a relationship. Even Elaine and Guybrush broke up before Monkey Island 2 started. And then Disney ripped Monkey Island off for the Pirates of the Carribbean ride/films. All this began with fireworks. Nothing there but trouble.
