I can never find time to post it seems...
I started a post about a week ago and diddn't finish it, I think it's saved as a draft but I couldn't be bothered to go and edit it, I have a mere ~5 inutes left in my lunch break.
It snowed for Valentines day .. and it snowed again a few days later. and today it's over 60º. Vernie has stated that she is not fond of the way the temperature flucuates greatly from day to tday in this part of the country.
I got her some organic free-trade chocolate truffles this year, sthey were about a week late because I had trouble ordering them. (Valentines day landed on a wednsday, they shipped from CA and I can't call long distance from work. .. oh and I tried to save ^$ by phoning in my order rather than going online) Anyway they finnally arrived and Vernie sees to love them.
In other news my old friend The Captian, expressed that he is joining the Army. He's nuts, yes. I am not going to talk him out of it, he hasn't been able to hold a job.... ever, and this might be good for him. He is currently too overweight (but just barely) to join, and I havn't heard from him in over a month so I have no idea what his status is at this point.
Veronica and I have had several discussions about what his problem is, I try to tell him but it's clear that from his perspective he's doing things right. Things will work out for him eventually, so I don't intend to critisize him too much, yet it's irritating to hear him complain (mostly on his myspace blog) about the same sort of thing over and over.
Most of his complaints deal with women. All of his frustrations can be broken down to two source problems.
1) he dosn't know what he wants. This is quite common among all people and all items of desire. But it's especially true in young people and potential mates. There is nothing wrong with not knowing what you want, but understand that you';re not going to get it untill you can define it. "I'll knw it when I see it" is not going to get y ou anywhere you want to be for any streach of time.
2) He's fishing in the wrong end of the pond. He does not realize the patern forming. The only type of woman h4e will snag are the crazy bitches he's accuired in his previous two relationships. A woman who wants some one like him will not be found in the places he's looking unless she's a crazy bitch.
A third potential problem, is that he's playing games but loosing them. The games are based on rules he's set up for himself to facilitate finding some one who won't burn him with her own games. But I belive that deep down, it stems from items 1 and 2, He's reaching out for something that feels right without knowing what he's after (or at least not defineing it) and hew's not yet aware that he was burned by crazy bitches. In the unlikely event he finds someone , who like himself, is fishing on the wrong end of the pond, and is looking for someone like him, he will probably shove her on her way with a anti- crazy bitch game.
