sharing truths in an age of innovative cynicism.

cranky

I have been recently: cantankerous, short, irritable, unlikeable, bored, unavailable, and fat.

It's summer, so it's hot, even at night. I hate it. Hate it hate it hate it. People get that way in the heat, but that's not really why I've been so cranky.

I've been cranky because, moreso than usual, I have been my only company and me and I haven't been getting along. Me does things I don't approve of: he wastes time, he puts things off, he makes selfish decisions. He's not a great roommate. But I'm stuck with me.

So, I'm going to start taking the initiative:

  • gym membership (tour today)
  • less waiting, more doing
  • no more thinking other people know shit about shit
  • a cease to compromise and empathy
okay, maybe that last one isn't a hard-and-fast rule, but I need to be a little more conscientious of my own needs and desires. I mean my real needs and desires – not the ones that please me in the moment. The actual, long haul, what I want out of life and to hell with me. 

More I. Less me.
