This man is my new hero. Wrote a paper many years ago. When he found out how many people were using his theories to promote their own creationist ideas? He retracted his paper!
Genius. My hat's off to you:

i think
that i was drunk the last time i posted.
but anyhow, the sox are in it. game 1 just started, so this may be a bit of a disjointed, distracted post. forgive me
i was walking down the street the other day and i saw a man lying on the sidewalk against a building with the upper half of his body out of sight in a cardboard box. The thought that popped into my head was "I could curl up in a cardboard box right now". what? that came out of nowhere. i was so confused because even when i thought it, it was totally deadpan in my head. so strange.
naomi and shoshana. they were both on the bus this evening, and she spoke to them both in the same tone of voice.
naomi is her mentally challenged adult daughter. shoshana is the dog

routine
the joy of coming home is such a contradiction. i always want to come home so badly, i always feel out of sorts, out of my regular routine.
and then i get home, and i feel so put off by my house and needing to clean and the empty fridge and the laundry and the unpacking and the mail sorting, and i realize that i shouldn't be such a slave to my routines. i should revel in the different schedules i need to bow to while on the road and try to incorporate pieces into my day to day

what is it about me?
is it my innocent face?
my purity of soul?
or my total lack of caring and compunction?
who the fuck knows what it is, my REAL question is this- why am i the girl to be confided in when you have some sort of gross, "i am an adulterer and we are in love" type confession to make?
why am i the go to girl for the confession that "we are in love but nobody can know because it will hurt too many people" or "i will get fired" or "i am a complete degenerate but we LOOOOVVVVEEE each other so it's ok"
seriously, why me? i am the most skeptical person about love and sacrificing for love, especially sacrificing other relationships, especially sacrificing friendships, especially sacrificing your own personal goals and integrity, especially sacrificing the lives of your children, excuse me, but fuck you for being so goddamn selfish.
i mean the truth is that i'm sure i am wrong about love in general and in practice, obviously my jaded opinions on love haven't really ever gotten me that far, but trust me i have no desire to get "far" if it means i have to sell out every moral fiber in my body.
which brings me back to my original question-
Why. why in the name of anything that is holy to anybody, but clearly not me, why am I of all people the confidant?
is it because normally nothing can phase me and i usually think that for the most part everyone should do the things that make themselves happy?
maybe the problem is that you don't understand that i think that only applies when you are the only person affected, maybe the problem is that you don't understand that i think that you are ABHORRENT when you sell out other people and lie and cheat and do things that make it impossible for other people to live their lives honestly.
maybe that's my problem
maybe that' s one of my many problems.
maybe people need to stop telling me things.
maybe i need to shut up and go to sleep
abhorrent
bitches
