Swoodd.

I hate to admit that the crazy "you need more sunshine" doctor might be right...but dammit, she might be right.

Warm sunny days like this put me right into high productivity. For real. On cloudy rainy days I'm sooooo blah...but today it's sunshiny and humid, and I've done more today than I've done in weeks.

I just caught my dog eating an umbrella. WTF is wrong with her? And I can not mop without getting attacked by my cat. Crazy ass animals. The most normal one is Pete, and he pretty much licks his dick allllll day. Weird. O's.

I think Magnum has a new "friend". I'm interested to see where it goes. She's older than me, which isn't the norm. We shall see.

I'm thinking about writing an extremely truthful, raw, soul bearing blog. But, ya know, that's not easy. It's not easy to put yourself out there, in the wild blue web, for anyone to read and critique. Hmmm...something to think about.

Also, I've been pondering this for a while now...and I've come to a conclusion. I expect more from people who aren't of the social "norm". I know, I'm probably gonna do a horrible job at explaining this, and there will, undoubtedly be people who think I'm totally out of line...but.....I think I expect more from people who are considered "different"? Or who live outside of what our society has decided is acceptable. Grrrr...this isn't going so well. Let me tell a little story, and we'll see where it goes from there.

I know a woman who is physically disabled. Her mind is good, her body, for the most part, is good, but she is unable to walk. So, she uses one of those hand controlled scooters. No bigz. One day, she told a story, that she went on a date with a black man. And she was walking around downtown with a black man, and she was embarrassed. She was so afraid that someone might see her with this man, that she couldn't enjoy herself.

Do you see where I'm going with this? I would have expected her to be more understanding of someone's difference, because she too, was "different". But instead she was embarrassed.

So what I'm trying to say, is, I think I expect certain people to be more understanding of my lifestyle, and more often than not, that's not the case. And I find that rather odd.

Swoo. I barely made it through that explaination. :) Goodness.

That's correct. It's not easy putting yourself 'out there' for all to see without editing it down to what you think others find acceptable.

I think as a whole we aren't always completely truthful with ourselves, let alone completely with others.

It IS however theraputic...
