So I met with Nikki again today, shes one of the ones from the dating site. Things went pretty good, I have yet to explain my issues, but I think I'll do that later via text message or MSN, we had a lot of fun today, we chatted played some video games. I am however a bit torn, I find her physically attractive, but there's something I can't quite describe about her personality that bugs me. One thing that deserves it own place on the list of pros and cons (under pros)is her eyes, they're a magnificent shade of blue that I've never seen before. Anyway I figure if explain my issues and she's willing to accept/help me with them, then I guess I can accept her baggage as well. Here goes nothing. Compromise is a normal part of any relationship right?
On another note I have another "date" on Monday hopefully that goes well, it's nice to have two shots.

If it weren't for good luck I wouldn't have any luck at all
The aforementioned drivers ed plan.
So it looks like I've finally got a full time job, just in time too. I've been lying to my parents telling them I've been taking a drivers education course that will cut down on my insurance cost. When the truth is I haven't even booked or paid for it. This might not be a problem if I actually had a job in the mean time to pay for the class, but I kept putting off putting the down payment for it. My parents think I'm almost done the class when really I've been hanging out with my friends downtown weekly. This grand scale deception has been going on for about 6 months now, so if I get caught I am beyond screwed.
But it looks like there is hope. I am getting a $360.00 tax refund, which will allow me to pay for the first half of it, I can cram in the class time, and with my job starting in the next week or so, I can at least get one pay check and pay for the second half, and because the test for my drivers license is in late march, I might be able to pull it off before I'm caught.
Even if I do get caught, my back up plan is to tell my family that the money that I was supposed to use for drivers ed, was put towards therapy sessions, and that I just didn't want to worry them. Kinda lame, but I'm sure I can talk my way out of it, I always do.

Ok I guess this is fresh start?
So I guess I should catch you up on what happened between X-mas and now.
X-mas was good, got some neat stuff, spent most of the time between the 26th and the 30th trying to find an awesome new years party (which I did). My parents left on vacation for a week, so I watched the house, they came back and I quit my job because I hated the people there. They all but begged me to stay, and said that even if I couldn't find a job by June, that they'd hire me back.
Late January I got sick of not knowing anyone, so I decided (cause I'm not desperate) to join not one, but two dating sites. The first one was useless. By February I had joined the second one, which was altogether a much better design. I met one person about a week and a half ago. She seemed nice enough and had really pretty eyes, but also seemed like she had a lot of baggage. Part of me was screaming to just make an excuse to get the hell out of there so I wouldn't have to deal with someone so strange, not to mention that nagging fear of intimacy in the back of my head. But another part of me was like shut up and actually try to get to know someone before you completely pick them apart, no one's perfect. Overall it wasn't a bad date, we walked around town for a bit and talked. We're also going out again this Saturday.
The second person I met seems nice enough, we're going out next Monday for coffee. I half want to explain to both of them, the issues I have with intimacy, but also at the same time I don't want to scare them off. I'm getting kind of sick of this wait and see attitude, at least I have two shots, so if I f*** up the first one then I'll know at least what not to do the second time.
So I guess the question of the day is... Should I explain my issues to them? basically I want a ridiculously slow pace.

Thank god for co-op, actually thank god for paid co-op I spent most of grade twelve and grade eleven doing nothing, because I was able to use work hours for my co-op hours. It’s honestly the best way to cheat the system.

Now I am finally caught up.
Dec 23 2010 2:36 AM
I just finished “Catcher in the Rye”, it wasn’t great. It wasn’t bad either. I just think it’s a bit over rated is all. There wasn’t really any plot (of course I’m the one to talk), I kept waiting for the protagonist’s problem, or I guess crisis you’d call it. When really he was just miserable person, and honestly I think it could’ve displayed better than it was. I kept waiting for the story to start and then all of the sudden it was over.
I really want to do something. I am almost tempted to put with my life at the end of that statement. I almost want to save up (X) amount of dollars and do something insane, just get up and go. Just leave. Only for a few months, a few weeks even. Clear my head. Maybe bring someone with me. Just do something crazy and spontaneous. I wouldn’t even tell anyone for the first couple of days, tell them I’m visiting a friend and will be home in a day or two, then call back that night from god knows where, saying that I won’t be home until I have no idea when. Explore or something you know?

High speed internet = no sleep. It's very strange to have breakfast and then go to bed, only to wake up and have supper almost immediately after... and then shower(you know, cause It's already dark and I can still do stuff till everything closes in 4 hours) I don't remember when I last saw the sun. Seriously with high speed internet, I can surf for hours at a time, come across something vaguely interesting and then research it at will, and continue until I need to sleep.

Merry Christmas.
"So it looks like our best chance is over the bridge and through the woods"
"Are we going to grandma's house?"
"Shut up Pvt. Hansel this is serious... ok now we have to meet up with Pig Squad and help the reinforce what's left of the brick house, but we gotta make sure Wolf squad doesn't try to flank us"
"Who made up these names, Major... Goldilocks?"
"Shut up, it was Captain Gingerbread's idea"
And Now it'll be slower as I've caught up with my most recent entry.

So coffee never panned out with K, and now I shall once again give up. I really want to go back to the way things were and… wait. I can’t just keep wishing for the past. I can however try to make the future better, I am not wholeheartedly into this cause. I want to “feel” again, lets break it down and make it happen.
Hell even as I write this, I don’t want to do it.
- Empathy, a good a place to start as any. Will work on getting a better understanding of it.
I keep trying to be who I was, and the funny part of it is, it’s all coming back, even the stuff I had forgotten and had thought lost. I am getting panic attacks occasionally, thank god I learned how to deal with them. I have an urge to want to believe in god. I have urges to do nice things for people. The only thing that hasn’t come back is my ability to approach people and not instinctively hate them. Honestly I hate all of it. I changed myself for a reason. But if it gives me a chance at a normal relationship it’s worth a shot.
I like the old system.
- Something happens
- Do you care?
No? You’re done!
Yes?
- Do you care for a rational reason?
No? Shut up and ignore/fix the problem.
Yes? Be sad/upset for appropriate length of time, get over it, and you’re done!

1. "Alright, so we may have a little bit of trouble getting down..."
2. "Difficult? Difficult is an understatement, I can’t even reach my feet."
1. "Someone will probably find us... eventually."
2. " *sigh* Eggs. It’s a five minute walk to the store and somehow you managed this."
1. "It's still better than last year’s vacation."
2. "It's 3 AM why did we even need eggs?"
1. "Hey if you look close enough you can almost see the hotel from here"
2. "Ok, don’t panic, deep breaths
1. “It's kinda blocked by trees and smoke.”
2. “Would you please shut up!”
"Bring me your weak and your old. Your criminals and outcasts. Your beggars and your homeless, and I will create a force the likes of which the world has never seen."

“I'd ask what tragic series of events led me to find you singing in your underwear into an empty toilet paper roll to the spice girls, but I'd much rather come up with my own... Are those... Nail extensions?”
“... Acrylic, yea...”
1. "So what did we learn today?"
2. "Practice what yo-"
1. "No"
2. "Look both ways before yo-"
1. "Try again"
2. "Don’t pick fights with the homeless?"
1. "Still wrong"
3. "Actually that’s not bad advice"
1. "Don't encourage him"
