My Randomness

There is "friend" of mine on fb who is getting married in a few hours. To be fair and honest though she's not really a friend, more of a friendly acquaintance. If she were really a friend, I would have told her that I think she's being a total idiot! This woman just got a divorce from her serioulsy abusive husband of like eleven years a few months ago. She met her husband to be about two and a half months ago and between them they have like five or six kids. There are so many issues in that sentence I almost don't know where to begin.... I'm all for being spontaneous and for embracing life, and that sort of thing. I do believe you can know that someone is meant for you in a short time, BUT 1. If you have children you should be much more circumspect in your major life decisions! You aren't just risking your own heart but the hearts, minds, and bodies of your children. 2. The woman in question knew her first husband for some years before they were married, b...

Yeah, so, I have like NO skills with men. Some women are born with the innate ability to flirt and be coquettish, I am not one of them! I crush on anyone who is remotely cute and nice to me. I'm sure it is connected with my daddy issues as a child raised without a father, but this self knowledge is not remotely helpful. I don't flirt well, I either come off as uninterested or desperate, and I have never actually been in a relationship. This combined with my love of all things genre and my weight actually make me an awesome nerd, but sadly nerd girls are not nearly as hot or desirable as you might think! How do you make yourself not think about someone? Especially when the truth of the matter is you have nothing in common with that person, you barely know them and if you did know them you would most likely be disappointed in who they are?! I am about to turn thirty six years old for FSM's sake. Yet I feel like a seventeen year old girl pouting because some boy didn't tex...

The question was raised recently by a friend on Twitter, " Don't you think some are too personal to post online?". removing the obvious like social security number, financial info and such, my first reaction was, "Nope," but then I took a moment. Let me say that in my mind I consider myself a writer. Not saying I am necessarily a "good" writer, but I feel I am a writer, and for myself to be true to that I try to always be honest, and vulnerable, when I write anything. Nothing should be sacred, in my opinion, If you want to be good you have to be honest, and you should, I think, be willing to go out on a limb and reveal things about yourself you're not certain you're comfortable revealing. That being said there is shit that I have done, that I will never, put out there, to the general public. Things I have done, that I am not proud of, and would not want to be judged by. Yes, honesty is important, and in a perfect world we would never do anythin...
