Facebook Removals

I have become obsessed with Facebook.  It's always in the back of my mind.  How so?  Well, I just don't care.  Too much information.  I have hidden many people, but now I just want to delete people.  It's going to be really funny when I inevitably run into folks I delete.

No Guy Friends

I have a lot of guy friends.  Apparently, if I want to meet a guy, this is not helpful.  I've heard this before, but this seems to be true.  When was the last time your guy friend tried to set you up?  This question is for both guys and girls out there, but more for the girls.  Girls are always trying to hook up their gal pals.  I don't see many guys trying to hook up their gal pals.

I should befriend more girls.  Too bad I find most girls to be irritating...

Waste Of A Day

No, I don't think it is a "waste of a day" if I spend the whole day sleeping.  The guy I end up with will have to agree with me on this.  I don't want to be woken at 6am on a Sunday to go grocery shopping (or worse, biking...if you haven't noticed, I really have an issue with bicyclists).  If he wants to do it, by all means go.  This kinda comes down to the whole judging thing again.

Some of you may be thinking, you are lazy!  Well you know what, I am a little bit lazy, but would love to be lazier!  I consider being lazy a reward for having to be "on" five days a week and over 50 hours in these five day weeks.  Lazy is also a reward for getting up by an alarm, humoring incompetent people for over nine hours a day, and regularly getting less than eight hours of sleep.  Yeah, a little different when you look at it from this perspective, eh?

Single Women

I have never known this many single women in my life.  Many of these women are attractive, successful, educated, and more.  I know single women in their 20s, 30s, and 40s who have never been married (yes, I am using the word "single" to mean never married, not divorced, not switching sides, not engaged, etc.).

I know I will eventually want to be married.  I know I don't want to be 40 and single (so I say now, ask me when I am 40).  Somehow, I think I will come across the right person when I want to and it's not now...  Or, I could end up single forever by choice.  I don't need another person to sit with me at a movie, eat with me at a restaurant, sleep next to me at night...and right now, not only do I not need it, but I also don't want it. 

I joke about it, but maybe I really am antisocial.

Another Valentine's Day

I am actually on vacation right now.  No, I am not writing while I am out of town, I scheduled this post.  Valentine's Day really doesn't do it for me.  I remember what I did last Valentine's Day (oh how I wish I could forget - I went out with The Brain).  Gross!!!

Happy Belated New Year

Happy Belated New Year!  Yes, chance number two for resolutions.  I never made them the first time around, so should I start now?  Sure, why not...
  1. Do things that I want to do, not because I think I am missing out on something if I don't (I know some of you must go out on a Saturday night when your friends call because you don't want to miss out on what happens)
  2. Clean out my life (Facebook friends, old emails, clothes, things - I have 30+ bobby pins, the last time I used a bobby pin was 12 or so years ago); I urge you to do the same, it feels great having less clutter whther it be mental or material
  3. Get more sleep (I like sleeping, there are several studies saying sleep is great for the mind and body - most importantly skin)

Nice Day Out

While the rest of the country has been pounded by Jack Frost, San Francisco has been unseasonably warm.  When I say unseasonably warm, I should clarify...San Francisco is almost never this warm.  It has been in the high 60s and low 70s.  This isn't even the kind of weather we would get in "summer" (June/July...it's actually really cold, think 50s) or our "Indian summer" (October/November...mid 60s during the day, cold at night).

I am not too fond of those that judge (duh, read some of my other posts).  Well, I especially dislike those who like to go out biking, swimming, hiking, kayaking, running, fishing, camping, golfing, etc. when it is warm out and have an issue that I don't.  Don't get me wrong, I like the warm weather, but why do I have to go outside to truly "enjoy" it?  I like staying indoors and reading a magazine on a gorgeous day.  Unlike the weaklings, I'll go on a hike in 45 degree weather when I feel like it, not because it's warm out.

In case you haven't figured it out, I do not want a guy who likes to "be active" if I have to partake in this activity.  I would rather have a guy that likes to play video games on "nice days" than a guy that can be found biking.

It all comes down to this: "don't judge."

Sarcasm

I used to think sarcastic people were fun.  Apparently, I am a quite different now than when I was 14.  What I have recently noticed is that sarcastic people are usually expressing themselves in a highly negative way.  Who truly enjoys negativity?  Do people really seek out incredibly negative?  I certainly don't.  I think negativity is tied to anger.

I came across an article with an excerpt from W Robert Nay, PhD.  Apparently there are some signs to anger (he was referring to partners in a relationship, but I think this can be applicable in all situations, platonic, romantic, other, etc):
  1. Witholding - conversation or affection
  2. Sarcasm
  3. Contempt
  4. Name calling
So, if you meet someone like this...RUN.
