Had they but courage equal to desire:
If there is one thing that annoys me more than anything else about people's behavior, it is avoidance. I know I am guilty of this sometimes, and that is probably why it bothers me so much - I tend to be really irritated by traits I see in other people that I dislike about myself. For the most part, however, I just don't fucking get it when people can't just tell other people what's on their mind. Angry about something I did or said? Tell me, and I'll make every effort to make amends and never say or do that again. Don't want to go on a second date? Better to just let me know than to not reply to my e-mail. Unsure about the meaning of something I said to you? Ask me. I don't understand why some people insist on just avoiding the situation instead of getting things out into the open and resolving them. Whatever. People are fucking odd.
In other news, I think that someone put some rocket fuel under the ass of my voodoo doll and lit it on fire, because I am so motivated to get shit done all of a sudden that it's almost scary. I got so many things cleared off my to-do list this morning that I almost thought that I had entered some alternate universe where time moved at a different rate of speed. (Note to self: watching the Sci-fi channel too much can lead to thoughts like these. Proceed with caution.) I certainly hope that this momentum continues, but in order to ensure that it does, I am going to stop by the store and get 87 energy drinks to carry me through the weekend.
I have also been thinking lately about how I sometimes say some fairly inappropriate things to my friends and acquaintances. For a moment I thought that I should make more of an effort to edit myself, but then I decided against it. I am not really concerned about it because I manage to edit myself in professional situations (i.e., situations which result in me being paid a salary and/or consulting fees), and outside of those situations I really do not give a rat's ass what people think of me. So if I feel comfortable enough with you to let my guard down and say things like "I'd like to be elbow-deep in that bitch" or tell you a dead baby joke, you should feel honored, because I don't say that kind of classy shit to just anybody.
