What Glass!
Posted Dec 2, 2004
An Optimist starts the day cheerful and is expecting the day to be wonderful and that they will fly through it in the utmost happiness. Unfortunately for those in that state of mind there is nowhere to go but down.
Pessimists on the other hand expect the day to be horrible and depressing. As the day goes on they cannot help but be pleasantly surprised.
I choose the latter.
In a world constructed specifically to get you down, one must be prepared for the worst and be happy when it doesn't happen. In the words of Elizabeth Haydon;Its not if I'm going to get hurt Its when I'm going to get hurt and what I can do to minimise the damage. But if you are going to go around the place all bubbly and cheerful please do me the favour of not trying to inflict it on me. I can take that sort of thing from my dog but please god! Not from my sugar-high roommate!

Its the Weekend!
Posted Nov 19, 2004
I've done it again!I GOT THROUGH THE WEEK! Its friday and i can't beleive i made it through the week without killing myself.
Of course once it hits saturday the creeping dread of Monday worms its way into the back of your mind. But forget Monday. Its the beginning of the weekend, a magical time during which the onlytough descision is whether or not to turn over in my bed or not.
The fact that I'm still in work does not take from the feeling that this weekend will be different, special.
The pie-chart in front of me fades into insignificance and i get that wistful look in my eyes, just a few hours more.
Thank god for the weekend.

What You Like
Posted Nov 18, 2004
Someone once said,'It's what you like that matters, not what you are like.' Is this True?
Is a relationship that is based on the mutual likes and interests of the participants doomed to failure or not?
If so then consider this. What would it be like, were the two people uninterested in what their partner liked. Such a relationship would be similarly doomed to failure.
Personality goes a long way but what happens when 'he' (Iknow it's an extreme example) wants to go bungee jumping but she wants to go to a garden exhibition! Good old inner conflict oh how i missed you!
So i put it to you, the reader(I hope!)help me out, is it what you like or what you are like?
Men were real men, women were real women and little furry creatures from alpha centuri were real little furry creatures from alpha centuri.

Grass is Greener???
Posted Nov 18, 2004
Today i had someone look at me knowingly and say in a superier way,'Remember the grass on the other side is greener'.
While this may even be true it always seems that the people that use that saying often are the ones with the greener grass personaly I don't have ANY grass. I live in an apartment block.

Chocolate
Posted Nov 17, 2004
It is my firm beleif that chocolate is the very food of the gods. An example: is there anything else in this world that is considered by some to be considered as good as sex? NO.(I'll take it back if you can prove me wrong)
Chocolate can lighten a day. It can soften a blow and yes of course in exsess can widen the waist line but it is still my firm beleif that chocolate is here to stay and those who try frequently to give it up (yes you!) only succed in bringing upon themselves misery beyond compare.
Icecream is definatly from heaven but maybe on second thoughts Chocolate is from hell.
