So, I didn't sleep very much last night... I just felt invigorated in a really odd way, also my usual bedtime rituals just didn't happen, so it is back to insomnia for me!
Anyways, I wake up late, run out the door late for class, after 2 or so hours of sleep, proceed to imagine strangling my yoga teacher, (namaste, namaste, namaste, don't choke her for being a bitch) she was pushy, and ran over the class 15 minutes, which in turn made me late to my next class again.And, surprise, I forgot all of my money for parking and lunch.
So there I was, running, my face feeling like it was bleeding, and I show up late, and fall asleep throughout a critical thinking class... But on the bright side, guys, this snow storm... My last 2 classes are canceled, so I leave early, get a call, my jury duty for Friday is rescheduled for March.....
Annnd, It is Michael C. Hall's 40th birthday... Oh, the things I would love to do to that man...
But, as non-insightful as this post has been, as compared to the last one, I would Like to elaborate and respond to my acknowledged accusations.
I figured it would be wise to decode what was given to me, since I'm in a critical thinking state...
In response to being oblivious:
-It may seem like I'm oblivious sometimes, but I have foot-in-mouth syndrome. I try not to unleash my verbal vomit of self-hate, and decide rather to keep my thoughts to myself. I know that I openly make excuses for my behavior, but I don't fool myself, I just choose to appear oblivious, it is SOOO much less stressful than being depressed. Actually when I shut my mouth after I do/say/impulsively act on something, I generally am thinking what a dumb ass I really am.
In response to me being an impulsive spender:
-Yeah, I have serious issues with that, but I cant seem to censor it unless I abstain from shopping, this is from years of money making with nowhere to spend it, and now I'm in quite the opposite situation. This is also a sort of self medication, but this is my issue...
In response to one-upping:
-Again, foot-in-mouth syndrome, I hate this about myself, and generally don't realize until I'm already done... I am wayyy competitive.I like to feel accomplished, and I use my experiences to feel like I relate to others, but I end up just coming off as a prick, but I suppose this will never change, I do need to work on it though, even though I have been and it goes nowhere.
And being a smotherer:
-I am a cuddler, and I generally like to cuddle after a long day of being out and about. I view my significant other as my best friend, and someone to vent to. Regardless, I work and go to school a lot, so I enjoy passively spending time with my significant other, just sitting around together. I didn't know that was the definition of smothering, I suppose that I should ask for a solid definition for that as a prerequisite for dating someone....
What have I learned?
What was my lesson?
I suppose find a guy who can communicate well, and make a checklist for him to fill out with a contractual agreement of relationship definitions and communication terms..(jussst joking... well, kind of...)
Or maybe that I just shouldn't date.
I'm ready for tomorrow and what it brings. But I seriously need to be a bit more aggressive with life, and get over this slump that my knee has put me into. I need to tell myself that I'm not handicapped, even if some mornings I know that I am.. I need to grab life by the balls, and let my pain make me stronger. My drive is my faith, I know that life goes on, and I have to keep my head up or shit will get to me.
I also try not to make hasty life altering decisions, I guess that's what got my panties in a bunch the most in this situation, knowing he didn't sit on it, or even approach to try and work it out. Just sat down and smiled and said it was over between us. Aside from my spontaneity in money spending, I'm a planner... I can't do something that impulsive without letting it sit a few days.. But whatever, it is his life...
On that note, I'm packing up the ex's stuff for easy removal, and then I'm gonna make up for that lost sleep.
