Cat Murderers

Alright, so i'm talking to a friend, feeling sorry for myself as i tend to do when hanging out with married/engaged friends, and she convinces me to put up a personal add. I'm not stupid, suicidal, or in the market for a stalker, so i go a slightly safe route and put the add in myspace personal. I don't have to put a phone number or anything, and i only give pics to people i know fairly well. You actually have a bigger chance of meeting me in person than getting a pic actually. If all else fails, i can erase the add and i control who i become friends with. So far i've gotten hit on by 60 year old guys, 19 year old boys (seeing as i'm turning 20, that isn't really a problem except for the fact that even when i was 7 i thought guys my own age were childish) and everything in between. Few have actually tried to have a conversation, the popular line being 'Do you have a pic/why don't you post a pic?' I have since stopped feeling sorry for myself and remembered that the reason i'm still single is not just because of clingy ex's, but because dating blows. Big time. I had forgotten how many cheesy lines and dirty old men there are. And i'm not counting the 35-40 guys as dirty old men. I'm talking 50-65, old enough to be my father dirty old men. I'm going to delete that add and crawl back into my nice, single, unoccupied bed and hide from the world, because as lonely as it can be sometimes, it looks better than the alternative. Yeah, i know that makes me a coward, but while fortune(and presumably love) favors the bold, curious killed the cat.

A new lease on life...

and a fortune. that's what my fortune cookie said. Would that the cookie spoke the truth and a fortune would come my way. A new lease on life wouldn't go amiss either. As it is, the only thing that's new is the resetting of my internal clock. It was pointed out to me, in rather annoying terms, that being nocturnal isn't good for my health. In order to remedy my sleeping habits, i stayed awake for a full 24 hours and am now about to sleep. 1 is the latest i stay awake now, and i feel tired just getting to that time. The whole thing is useless anyhow, when the fall term begins again, ill be back to 20 and 18 hour days due to work and studying. But for now, a more 'normal' pattern is the one i must follow. I did this mainly to avoid a trip to the doctor, my parents were making noises about having me see a doctor for my insomnia. I'm not an insomniac, i simply take at least an hour to fall asleep. Even though i go to sleep earlier now, i still only sleep for about 6 hours. I cannot sleep longer.

In other news, i am waiting for the news of a friend. She was due to give birth this week, and the lack of communication suggests that she has. My cell is dead, and if she is in the hospital, she cannot IM. i will have to find out about my almost-niece when she is better. Sleep calls and i answer gladly. May all your dreams be pleasant.
