  • Scrubs

    I know it really shouldn't be that inspiring, since it is just a stupid
    television show, but Scrubs makes me think.  Maybe it's because
    the plots always involve like two or three different relationships.

    Why is it that I'm suddenly so singular?  Why is it that I just
    don't seem to have that much in common with any of the people I used
    to?  Is it growing "up" or is it simply growing in some kind of
    sideways fashion?  My interests seem to be so radically different.

    My main worry is sex.  Now, I still stare blatantly at all Asian
    girls.  I still look at porn.  I still watch hentai. 
    Also, I started checking out every half decent male that crosses my
    path.  However, the fact that I can get sex at any moment that I
    want just by
    suggesting that it should happen just doesn't make me happy
    anymore.  I don't get turned on by thinking about it.  I
    tried taking some sexy pictures of him with a skirt on and my little
    pink see-through tank top on...but I really just had to force myself to
    be turned on at all.  I've heard birth control can do it to you,
    but again, I can't just blame everything on some stupid
    medication.  I think the problem really just lies with the fact
    that I'm not in love with him anymore.  I don't feel the same way
    when he touches me, talks to me, looks at me, anything.  I just
    want him to leave me alone most of the time.  He's like a really
    heavy bag that I have to carry around everywhere, but that I can't put
    down because it has something important in it that I haven't been able
    to find in a while.

    Another worry of mine is that all my friends seem to be warping into
    things that I don't enjoy.  I don't have any strictly nerd
    friends.  All of them have some kind of strange quirk, and not the
    fun goofy kind.  I'm sick of not having anyone who I can just talk
    to without feeling...awkward because they are so different from me...or
    because they are radically less intelligent than me, and I don't mean
    that I'm incredibly intelligent.  I'm just saying that sometimes I
    wonder what the hell people are thinking when they say or do things.

    Anyway, yeah, I've really just noticed a drop off of enjoyment during
    pretty much all activities.  Actually...I take that back.  I
    had a great time at Monique's the other night.  Her roommate Max
    straightened my hair and then all three of us chatted and watched the
    Dark Crystal.  I didn't feel awkward or stupid or annoyed will
    talking to her and Max.  We talked about old movies, television
    shows, video games and silly people we know.  It was so
    nice.  I miss that feeling.  If they weren't going down to
    the Lake of the Ozarks tomorrow then I would definitely request another
    evening of enjoyment.

    That brings up another problem.  I want to hang out with other
    people more than him, a lot more than him.  Heck, right now he's
    sitting around watching television and rather than be subject to his
    presence I am posting on this stupid website.  I find that
    unfortunate.  Monique invited me to go down to the Lake, and if I
    didn't have both work and class, I would have absolutely accepted and
    not invited him.  I'm really glad this weekend is a float trip
    with my friends from high school to which him will not be going. 
    It should be great...at least...if I can still actually hold a
    conversation with my high school friends.

    Why does everyone think drinking is soooo goddamn cool?  In fact,
    what the hell makes everyone want to start smoking??  I'm about
    tired of seeing old friends with cigs in their faces and beers in their
    hands as they stagger about or in their facebook pictures.  Is
    your life that crappy that you have to drink enough to forget most of
    it?!  Really!?!  Or, is your life so crappy that you want to
    drastically shorten it by sucking hot, tar filled smoke into your
    lungs?!  Must be, because that's what you're doing, ya little
    bitches.  I have no respect and no sympathy for you as you cough
    and whine about your hangovers.  Shut the hell up and take the
    pain that you've brought on yourself like a man (or woman,
    respectively).  Do you think I come around your place whining
    about how bad my relationship with my boyfriend is and about how much
    pain it's causing me?  NO!  I just spill it on here where
    people can choose to read it or completely ignore it.  I keep the
    pain I bring myself TO MYSELF!!

    Now, if you have a problem that you can't control or you are willing to
    take someone's advice when it is given, then tell me about it. 
    I'd love to help!  Helping makes me happy!  However, if you
    don't want my advice or you don't want to hear the TRUTH, then don't
    tell me!  I tell the truth!  It's kind of my thing.  So,
    if you don't want to hear that you are stupid for smoking, then don't
    whine about your cough.  Am I completely rude or is that fair?

    Yeah.  I'm done ranting.  Sorry if you read all that hoping for some kind of better resolution to all of it.

  • I just finished reading Phillip K. Dick's Confessions of a Crap Artist. I recommend you check it out. It reminded me of your relationship shenanigans. I think you'de like it.
