Five more things for Monday Night
1. I am not dead! Really a lot not.
1b. ...but I will be tomorrow. Fuck.
2. Syntax continues to hurt, but I think I'm getting the hang of it!
2b. Or at least this assignment is prettier than the last one.
2c. I think.
2d. Never as much fun as phonetics, though. Too bad, bitches.
3. I'm slow to get angry. I mean, something will happen, and I'll just kind of smile and nod, and then I'll get home, and be kind of annoyed, and I'll talk about it, and gradually, over the course of the conversation, grow more and mroe agitated as it finally sinks in that no, really: I'm fucking pissed off, over here.
3b. For a while, I thought this was a bad thing, coming mostly from my reliance on the opinions of others. Now, though, I don't think that that's the case. My reactions are my own - I just don't like to express them in haste.
3c. The exception, of course, is when I'm in a genuinely pissy mood. Then, everything pisses me off, and I'm snappy as all hell, but I get over it in a hurry.
3d. These may actually be related - I've had some bad experiences with snapping at people just from stress, so when I can, I try to hold my reactions back until I can control them and sort through them in some sort of safe space.
3e. Which I knew? I mean, I know I've said that before, and meant it, but as of today it really sank home.
3f. And no, it's none of you. Real life, pshaw! I reject your reality and substitute my own.
4. I don't think that you should be or feel obliged to spend time with people who make you feel bad about yourself. Sometimes it's unavoidable, of course, but when it's not? Don't touch that stuff, man.
5. You know what's a great word? Concatenation.
5b. Which means things that are linked or overlap or what have you.
5c. Example: I wonder what the concatenation of interests is on my flist? Like, say: who likes f/v/k AND genderswap?
5d. OK, yeah. That one is maybe not an entirely rhetorical question, but given the probable size of the set in question, I don't think you'll ever see the relevant texts.
