Truthful Thursday
I feel uneasy all the time. Not bad. Not sad. Not angry. Just uneasy.
I think it’s because I’ve forgotten how to relax.
Or, I’ve forgotten how to relax because I feel uneasy all the time.
What does it say about me?

That I never actually broke up with my High School Boyfriend, I just stopped accepting his calls and quit hanging out with him. And he quit hanging out with me, which I really didn’t notice (although our Sophmore Year we were inseperable) and then one day in the hall outside Honors History, Michelle Pengra came up to me to tell me that she had seen him at the Village Theater...

By the way, I think it’s deeply hilarious that when you plug the phrase, “blah, blah, blah, rapeteta” into Google, you only get four hits. None of them are from the play this phrase was culled from (Hurlyburly, by David Rabe), one is from a blogger’s review of the movie, and the top entry is from my long defunct baseball blog.
Which, of course, means OH GOD I’M...

Her: This is like the mind of a six and a half year old.
Me: So, it’s like your mind?

6 has her best friend over and they're watching...
6 has seen it, but the friend hasn’t, so as a result, the friend is constantly asking questions about what’s happening in the movie, which would be fine, except:
1) Neither of them are paying attention for more than 3 seconds at a pop.
2) When she is paying attention, the friend is consistently asking questions that the movie itself will answer roughly 7 seconds after the question is...

I don’t know a lot about cars, but I’m guessing it wasn’t good to drive with that for a week and a half.

I read “Ophiuchus” as “Australopithecus”, so I guess what I’m trying to say is, I think I just turned into a caveman.
Don’t you hate it when you leave your bag of tampons behind?

Shut up. This is the stupidest idea I have ever had and I place a big part of the blame on your stupid wife (disclaimer: your wife is not stupid) and even more on YOU for following in her stupid running footsteps.
