What to do, what to do.

Staring Down The Crossroad

They shove this down your throat from the earliest point you're able to comprehend the concept of "the rest of your life". They hammer at it and hammer at it until you're damn sure you've got the answer just right for you. Most people will make it up just to keep people off their backs. .. It doesn't work so well - you're then stuck answering questions and filling stuff out for something you don't even have any interest in. It's actually quite the spectacle.

Really, though, they do it for good reason. It's to keep people from the possibility of sitting in a chair years down the road thinking "Holy damn, I've wasted my life to this point - what should I do?" Look at all this time you've wasted. Count up alllllll the days. Come on, you can do it. 365 days a year, crunch some numbers. Wouldn't it have been easier to just think of something and follow it whole heartedly?

You bet your ass it would have been.

For some reason, I apparently enjoy making random posts in the middle of the night.
No one really reads them, though. And by no one I mean very few. And by very few I mean I only know of one.

Yeah.

So the new "cool" rumor of the month is that I'm apparently madly in love with a coworker! Awesome!
Well, not so much coworker anymore. She quit, and her last day was today.
At least I have her msn.

So, yeah, I guess it's a little justified in being interpreted that way. I did say "I really like her.. a lot." to someone one morning, and that person went and told the biggest gossipper the store has, but - that isn't entirely how I meant it. I more or less meant it as admiration - trying to say that she's totally amazing and stuff.

But, apparently, "like" only has one function these days. Tough luck.

It would be a lie to say I'm not interested, but seriously, going so far as to TELL HER and make her waste an entire day there waiting for me to say something is a little much.

Damned meddlers.
