I’ve spoken to people that have had online problems recently. I just don’t understand why someone/anyone would put so much energy into being hateful. It seems to me that the world is already a pretty nasty place. Why seek people out just for the point of being miserable? Has it ever dawned on these people that they themselves are probably more consumed with the whole scenario than the people they think they are bothering? Point, click, delete! I think that time wasted in this false world could be better spent. The internet may be a safe haven for you to be a faceless menace, I agree! but when the computer is turned off who is burdened?

Why these things happen, I don’t know. I can’t imagine taking time away from the things I find happiness in, just so I can “get back” at someone. Peace be with you

The only type of drama that I like is Korean.

It’s funny how you picture someone that you chat with online. I sometimes wonder how other people perceive me to look like. As I chat with people longer and read more details of their daily lives, my vision of them and their space seems to become more vivid. I wonder if I’m painting a true picture, I’m just wondering because I see some people post pictures of what appears to be themselves. Others post pictures of movie stars, musical artists, or anime characters. My online friends have really interesting icons that seem to be a little deeper than most out there. Just an observation. anywho, on with my day.

I dislike the fact that we need a key fob to get in to our condominium complex . Security-wise, I think it’s a great idea, but not if somebody’s asshole friend gets a hold of it somehow and breaks in to the bike locker to steal bikes for drug money . Matt finally got duplicate keys made so I can lock our door and exit the gate, but I am still waiting for that hateful key fob so I can enter the building!!!

On a more cheerful note, Chris and I went to the mall. Chris seemed anxious to build robots, and I just wanted to get my Mother’s Day shopping over with . It usually takes my packages a while to go through US/Canadian Customs, so I want to ship out my gifts early. I also bought some lovely citron green tea for my mother in-law . I really hope she likes it. Now I am just waiting for the weekend to finally begin.

There are two phrases I absolutely loathe to hear, and that is because they are both foreboding of bad and awkward things to come. At the least.

One of them is, “I have a question for ya!”, second only to, “We need to talk/There’s something we need to discuss.”

So, for future reference, if you DON’T want to give me a panic attack, DON’T call and leave either of these phrases as a message. If you have a question, I don’t know…you could always…gee, what alternatives are there? OH YEAH you could JUST ASK THE QUESTION. Why preface anything with what you’re going to do? It’s not like if you want to say something, no one will find out until you say, “I have to say something”- it’s obviously going to come out pretty soon, anyway. No normal person is going to respond to, “I have a question for you!” with, “No questions please,” or the like. Give me a break.
