Ponderous

So… what's been going on lately? Hmm…

I took my dog Jack on a walk today when I went and got Chapell from school. He seemed to enjoy it. It's funny… I've had him for almost two years, and this is the first time that I've actu­ally taken him on a walk. I should start doing that more often… ;)

"Fuddy" went well last week­end. It's such a great show… Each time I see it, I like it more.

Megan… well, she has a new inter­est (or an old one, depend­ing on how you look at it) :angry:… and she's all but for­got­ten about me. Not only that, but she says that the rea­son our recent "quasi-romantic" adven­tures took place was for her to find out if there was any­thing that was "still there" between us. Well, I don't like being a fuck­ing guinea pig… and I don't like being strung along. I'm being con­trolled… and abused… and deeply hurt… and I can­not allow this to con­tinue… I sin­cerely hope that she is happy in what­ever she does. But a per­son can only take so much… :

It's been almost two months… and it still hurts so much… I'm sorry if anyone's tired of hear­ing about it, but you know my opin­ion on that. I just don't under­stand why (it seems) she's just try­ing to hurt me as much as she can… and she knows she can… She knows the power that she has over me… how I just can't say "no" to her, and how she can make me do what­ever she wants… and she does it any­way… and says later, "I feel bad about it after­wards." Why is she try­ing to hurt me? God, I must really be a hor­ri­ble per­son if I deserve all of this… and I must deserve itother­wise, she wouldn't do this… Why does she need to hurt me… when I care for her so much.…

I'm sorry if I've been "a jerk." That wasn't my inten­tion… It's just that every time I talk to you, you end up hurt­ing me… and I can't take any more pain. I don't know what else to do.…

Sun­day evening I spent with Jake, and Sun­day night-Monday with Dan. I've decided to only spend time with those who are truly my friends that really do care for me, as opposed to those who only say they care.

It's funny… I never trust advice about a woman until I hear it from another woman… And it struck a chord for me today when she said it… "She will con­trol you for as long as you let her. It's like fish­ing… she will catch you, play with you for a lit­tle bit, and then throw you back in…"

She also said some­thing that hung with me: "God put you and Megan together for a rea­son…" Haunting… :

I was read­ing "Newsweek" today, and I read an arti­cle about the 18-year old Pales­tin­ian girl who made her­self a human bomb and blew her­self up inside a gro­cery store. The author made a strange com­par­i­son between her and another girl who died in the blast. Now, I don't usu­ally fol­low the news­espe­cially as of late. After all, I'm depressed enough. But when read­ing that arti­cle, some­thing hit for me. I can't really explain it… suf­fice to say that tragedy is relative.

For the past cou­ple of days, I've been prepar­ing for a Troma sales pre­sen­ta­tion that I'm work­ing on tomor­row and Thurs­day in Den­ver. I'll be work­ing with Michael Herz, Troma's Vice-President… It's excit­ing, but will also be strangeas I'll be glad to finally meet him in per­son, but given the things I've heard about him, I dunno… Nev­er­the­less, it will be a wel­come expe­ri­ence. I'm think­ing of it as a vaca­tion… I con­firmed my hotel room today… and got the Civic tuned up… Guh… I hate dri­ving in Den­ver… All things are a "GO"… Shit! I still need to pack! *LOL*

An IM last night with Indigo:

[00:30] Chris Lan­phear: some­times, i wish i were gay.… at least i under­stand guys.
[00:30] Indigo Merid­ian: lol, so you think :)
[00:30] Chris Lan­phear: LOL
[00:31] Indigo Merid­ian: it's a lot more com­pli­cated than it looks ;)
[00:31] Chris Lan­phear: well, i under­stand 'em a hel­luva lot bet­ter than women.… good god.… i know we're not as com­pli­cated as they are.
[00:31] Chris Lan­phear: of course.… but i'm just gen­er­al­iz­ing
[00:31] Indigo Merid­ian: yeah, well, …gay men are worse :-P
[00:31] Chris Lan­phear: really?
[00:31] Chris Lan­phear: how?
[00:32] Indigo Merid­ian: lol… well.. com­bine stub­born male traits… then add in lots of emo­tion, lol
[00:32] Chris Lan­phear: then you've got Megan, LOL.
[00:32] Indigo Merid­ian: lol
[00:32] Chris Lan­phear: she's got the best of both worlds.
[00:33] Indigo Merid­ian: i dunno though… i've not ever met the num­ber of pyscho queers as I have straight girls
[00:33] Chris Lan­phear: exactly.
[00:34] Indigo Merid­ian: heh… but, i'd say, rela­tion­ships are tricky things regard­less of the num­ber of balls involved

*LOL*

I think that about does it for my ran­dom mus­ings today… see you all on Thursday!
