Ever hear Jimmy Wayne's song "Stay Gone"? Please, take his advice. You never did a damn thing for us when we were together, do this for us now.

Why do weekends have to pass so quickly and weekdays take forever?

I am trying to like oatmeal. Really, I am.

I made a pot of steel cut oats (less mushy) and loaded it with jamaican all spice & cardamom & a touch of tahitian vanilla & raw almonds on top (less bland). And the consistency is still "weird" to me. Le sigh.

Must persevere.

Reminding myself of my 10 Commandments..
This was from a self esteem course i took back in 2008..
Very fitting for the journey i've recently taken on..

MY TEN COMMANDMENTS

1/ Thou shalt not worry, for worry is the most unproductive of all human activities.
2/ Thou shalt not be fearful, for most of the things we fear never come to pass..
3/ Thou shalt not cross bridges before you get to them, for no one yet has succeeded in accomplishing this.
4/ Thou shalt face each problem as it comes. You can handle only one at a time anyway.
5/ Thou shalt not take problems to bed with you for they make very poor bedfellows.
6/ Thou shalt not borrow other people's problems. They can take better care of them than you can.
7/ Thou shalt not try to relive yesterday for good or ill - it is gone. Concentrate on what is happening in your life today.
8/ Thou shalt count thy blessings, never overlooking the small ones, for a lot of small blessings add up to a big one.
9/ Thou shalt be a good listener, for only when you listen do you hear ideas different from your own. It's very hard to learn something new when you're talking.
10/ Thou shalt not become bogged down by frustration, for 90 percent of it is rooted in self-pity and it will only interfere with positive action.

I need some new friends - or should I just say friends. Trying to figure myself out before dragging others into the chaos. I sometimes wonder how I would have turned out without all the bullying, rejection, and pain that I have endured - I know they say what doesn't kill you makes you stronger, but just how strong does one person have to be?

Nightshade · 01-17-2011, 10:49 AM

I'm thinking about alarm clocks. And how much I dislike starting my day with them. But I've signed up for overtime for the next 3 days so it's my own damned fault.

Well at least the money will be nice. Eventually. Today I'm just

And 2.

Yes, exactly the sort you think I mean. Which in general slang, indicates bravery and integrity. Neither of which is gender specific, but the idea of which I just slapped my ex with anyway. Sigh.

Man the fuck up. Whether you be a woman or a man, a femme or a butch, have some god damned integrity and own up to your own truths, whether you like them or are proud of them or not.

They are yours to own. Stand up and speak them and don't blame anyone else for them.

If you can do that (no matter how it effects me), you will earn my respect forever.

little_ms_sunshyne · 01-17-2011, 10:33 PM

Yo. I GET what you mean. But "having balls" and "man-ing up" is still sexist, no matter how you dice it. There's no general slang in those phrases. They're very specifically-designed phrases that perpetuate the idea that men are braver and more ethical than everyone else.

Otherwise, we wouldn't "scream like girls" or "be a pussy."
