YOU think YOUR life is sucky??? by Ashur, i could easily make your life sound like a warm day snoozing in the sun (or "Son" for those Christians out there)! i got stuck dogsitting in neurotic suburbia land for no $, doomed to die from inhaled sqeaky toys & dog fur, & i have a test that i would like to get done at some point in the near future (not that it counts for a grade, but i really ought to be kissing ass in my dept. right now). & today i had a near-quarter life crisis/seizure/spasm as i realized just how pathetic & delusional the whole of middle class America (not to mention the upper class) really is, & how nothing i do will ever count for anything - nada - dew.
ok, so i don't have much to complain of, actually - the dogs are just adorable & fluffy... wes we wis, waren't we?... the satelite TV is JUST great, the limitless supply of soft drinks, the neighbors whose houses are so close to this one that it feels like i take my showers with them, too, the nice middle-aged men who stare at me when i walk the dogs & try to make cute comments... isn't this the life? what else would i want? objectify & dominate me, please!!! i'm yours for the taking, at least while my boyfriend's across town! just kidding. woo...
what i really wanted to say was - please don't talk about Bibles. it's too painful for me - kinda like thinking about an ex. i feel jaded, manipulated, & lied too. & i've decided that shinto is the way to go, for me. let me rot in peace - i don't care about going nowhere after this life! let me try to do something to help people out with this life, not the next. i'm tired of this life being so crummy. if i end up going to heaven or hell - i'll worry about that when i get there. one step at a time, baby. one step at a time...
