Just shut up already or Why I insist on being single.

I don’t want to meet someone who thinks my bad habits are “adorable”. I don’t want to date a person who goes out of their way to have stuff in common with me. If I chew my gum too loud and it annoys you, tell me. If I’m a bitch, say I’m a bitch. I don’t have patience for people who compromise, who conform, or who are passive just for the sake of getting along. Realistically, you can’t keep it up.

What is annoying about me really is annoying. It annoys me, and it’ll annoy you. In a few months you’ll start speaking up and saying, “hey, could you not do that?” or, “I don’t know why you can’t just eat a meal without picking it apart and throwing half of it away.” If you spend the first couple of months actively trying to be the perfect match to someone, you’ll soon realize that it was a waste of time to begin with. Trying to be the ideal partner for someone is the same as lying, whether you’re ready to admit that or not. Once you can’t keep the charade up any longer you’ll notice a few things. One, you’ve changed who you are, and you hate yourself for it. Two, you just wasted your time and mine. And three, there really is someone out there that is your complement and when you meet them you won’t have to fake it.

A good relationship is an easy one. You don’t have to convince the other person that you have stuff in common. When you meet someone who loves a band as much as you do, you just know they do, you don’t have to convince them of it. You don’t have to agree on everything, and you don’t have to have the same book collection. There’s a difference between loving a person and loving the things they love. The times when you love both, though, that’s the person you need to hold on to.

Sonic Youth - Mote

If this song sounds familiar to those few non-Sonic Youth fans, it’s because a while back The Faint covered it in their own style (and did a pretty good job, in my opinion.)

Cat enthusiast. (I realized I was wearing (nearly) the same thing as Charlie when I saw this picture, so, naturally.) (Also, I’m sorry.)

I remember the day I got this bag in 1994. It came with one of those pens, where if you turned it upside down the little rocket guy would move to the other end. I have actively used this bag SINCE 1994 and just right now, this second, I realized what the hell it was because of you geeks. Thank you and good night.

Remember that hole I dug?

So, I’ve been stressed out, for a while, about the hole I’ve dug myself into. (I don’t even know why I’m telling anyone this, I guess it’s one of those things you people do, talk about yourself and whatnot.) Basically it’s a little educational hole. I’ve wanted to just get school over with for so long, that I was resorting to just finishing any random degree (closest one is psychology, with 8 remaining courses, in case you were wondering) just to get an entry level job and start working. I saw all of these 26 year old kids with these “paying the bills” jobs and thought to myself, “okay, I’ll do that.” Well, I’ve realized that we live a lot longer than 30 years, so why should I do a job that I have no interest in? I’ve also realized how old I am. So, you do the math, no, not that math, the theoretical math. The, might as well spend the next two or three years getting a degree that will actually lead to a job I’ll really enjoy and until then I’ll work at Safeway (not literally), math. What I’m saying is, I’d rather have a job I love at (gasp) 25, than work at Safeway (literally) with a psychology degree. So, there you have it. That’s what I’ve been doing for the past week or so, while I sat around binge drinking and tweeting about it. Oh, and for those of you playing along at home: Ronald Reagan.

It’s so fascinating because it’s completely true.
