I've discovered a new way to punish myself. I haven't worked very much this week so on my next paycheck I'm going to be poor. My place is a mess and I hate it and I'm not going to clean it. I need a shower and I'm not going to take one. I'm hungry and I'm not going to eat.
This is even better than hurting myself physically. The quality of my life is more important to me than my body.
Does anyone else do this?
And I want to have sex with someone I don't know well and don't give a shit about.

Help me, I'm stupid.

I would like a room. I cannot make a room. I cannot make a paint program do anything but make me want to stab my own eyes out. I lose files. I end up with giant planet sized files when I try to stick a poster on a wall. I don't even know how to find a vacant room.
If I did find it I'm sure I'd find some way to make it huge and unwieldy. Would someone help me? Obviously I'm inept and shouldn't be allowed to try this kind of stuff.

+10000 karma to all you guys

I just noticed something. I crosspost everything from my lj over here. I don't know why, I just do. My lj is read by my closest friends. People who tell me they love me. People who tell me they will always be there for me. People who tell me they worry. Tell me they're my friends.
But when I post things, identical things, the lj gets no input. No reply. My friends, who claim so often to love me so much, never talk to me. They just don't. I could spill my guts all over that page and they wouldn't so much as say a word. I've even come right out and pathetically pleaded for people to talk to me. Nope. Nothing.
But you guys always do.
You always have some kind of input, some kind of advice, some kind of comfort to lend or rational thought to ground me with.
You guys don't even KNOW me, but y'know sometimes I'd be so lost without some kind of human contact, and there's never been a time that someone here didn't answer me. Wasn't there for me. Only in words, true, but words are powerful things. When it's late at night and the world seems empty, an "it's alright" from a stranger can make so much difference.
You people here are awesome.
Just thought you should know.

Desiderata

Go placidly amid the noise and haste, and remember what peace there may be in silence.
As far as possible without surrender be on good terms with all persons.
Speak your truth quietly and clearly; and listen to others, even the dull and the ignorant; they too have their story.


Avoid loud and aggressive persons, they are vexations to the spirit. If you compare yourself with others, you may become vain and bitter;
for always there will be greater and lesser persons than yourself. Enjoy your achievements as well as your plans.


Keep interested in your own career, however humble; it is a real possession in the changing fortunes of time.
Exercise caution in your business affairs; for the world is full of trickery.
But let this not blind you to what virtue there is; many persons strive for high ideals; and everywhere life is full of heroism.


Be yourself. Especially, do not feign affection.
Neither be cynical about love; for in the face of all aridity and disenchantment; it is as perennial as the grass.


Take kindly the counsel of the years, gracefully surrendering the things of youth.
Nurture strength of spirit to shield you in sudden misfortune. But do not distress yourself with dark imaginings.
Many fears are born of fatigue and loneliness. Beyond a wholesome discipline, be gentle with yourself.


You are a child of the universe, no less than the trees and the stars; you have a right to be here.
And whether or not it is clear to you, no doubt the universe is unfolding as it should.


Therefore be at peace with God, whatever you conceive Him to be, and whatever your labors and aspirations,
in the noisy confusion of life keep peace with your soul.


With all its sham, drudgery, and broken dreams, it is still a beautiful world.
Be cheerful. Strive to be happy.
