It has probably been months since I have been on here. I'm sorry , I suppose. In a way I have disappeared from this just the same as I run from most other things. I had a moment just now. I was able to turn a phrase toward what I have so often felt.. I am a magician skilled in the illusions, listening to the audience marvel at the work of a dime store swindler. Find peace my friends I hope to see you soon
Was having a rough day and this pic of an old friend popped up on my wall.. now I canât stop smiling.
This picture still makes me smile. I think I need to go and see some old friends. . hs reunion tour đ
Today is day one of my vacation. And considering how hard I had to fight for this time off; Iâm not surprised at how this trip has gotten started.
But I am determined to enjoy myself, do things at my own pace, and not stress the little things.
Wish me luck.
I forgot about this song. I needed this
I'm tired. Stressed out. Trying to keep enough energy to push through. I'm exhausted. There have been far too many physical and emotional traumas recently, not to mention the mental and financial. . I have been in need of a break for a long time. I wish that I was more comfortable with going alone . I have no trouble going to the bar or a movie alone. But to go for several days somewhere alone slightly terrifies me. Especially if I'm not there to see someone. I don't know why. Maybe I need to fix that.
I am so overwhelmed right now. I have this huge weight on my shoulders and I want to let some of the pressure off. I don't want to whine or sound childish. I just want to be heard. But the problem is, everyone will listen to me except for the one who needs to hear it most. I finally feel some justification for my feelings. (side note: you are always justified to feel however you want, no matter what anyone says.) I have others in/outside of the situation who are equally confused as to why this friend is acting in such an erratic way. While that doesn't fix the problem it is reassuring to know that I am not completely wrong. I just want a solution to this without losing the last 10 years of friendship.
You can stand it!
I cannot stand it!
You can stand it, you married me for it!
Uggg.. there are times when I feel like Elizabeth Taylor and then there are times when I feel like Richard Burton.
Then there are times like these ... . . . ...
Urban Symmetry Zsolt Hlinka
Urban Symmetry presents buildings on the banks of the River Danube, which are emphasized out of their surroundings and put into soundproof, homogeneous space cleaned off the whole exterior information. However, the series cannot be considered as a dry study, because it does not depict the raw reality: if you get a closer view of the photographs, you may discover that none of the pictures show the building in its full form, but only its reflected part. After all, these fictitious buildings coming into existence perfectly grab and condense their original character into themselves, as if you could see human faces and different personalities on the building portraits.

Argg.. I don't like my friends sometimes
I don't like feeling guilt tripped by my friends. I am more than willing to help out, loan money or skills. But, it is hurtful when I am constantly giving and there is little return. However, I can typically overlook that, no one is perfect and a relationship is never a 50/50 split. This time is different though. This time, no matter what their 'good intentions' are, I feel used. The last time I contacted these friends was to see how their daughter (my 'niece') was doing in softball, I wanted to know when the games were so I could come cheer her on. This was almost 2 weeks ago. Since then, I have not heard from them, until Friday. Friday, while I was at work, my phone started blowing up. 'Can we borrow money?' ... 'Oh we were just trying to go meet dad at pride.' ... 'Are you coming [to pride] ???' ... "And is it possible for us to borrow money[?]" ... "Why you not answer me [?]" (The last 2 are direct quotes) Saturday, while I'm trying to spend an early Father's Day with my dad and trying to finish a mountain of homework, the phone starts going off again. 'You coming out tonight???' ... 'My wife and I wanted to go to the pride party' ... 'So were you coming?' ... 'wondered if we could borrow $'... Keep in mind that I have more than helped these friends out before, including most recently providing upwards of $300 worth of food, car pool services, and cash. Now there is a certain amount of petty bs that I normally would overlook going on as well. But considering the circumstances this petty bs is just fuel to the fire. I am by no means rich but I live (begrudgingly) within my budget. Especially as of late, since I am trying to pay for 2 operations, dental work, tuition, among the normal bills. All of that makes saving for a (much needed) new car and new phone incredibly difficult. So to continue with these 'short term loans' only puts me further behind. And I have put off these surgeries for way too long as it is. It might not hurt so much if it weren't for the fact that they spent all their fun money having a good time with other people. I feel like Dad sometimes. The kids run off and spend their gas money on a day at the beach with their friends only to call up Dad when the car runs out of fuel. All I want to know is "why is it that I get asked for $ before I get asked to hang out?"
