There are very few things in life that are certain.
But one can always be certain that people will hate you for no apparent reason.
This is a fact and I can say this much, people are generally hard wired to be wary and resentful of things they don't understand.
You can never be tall enough, glamorous enough, crass enough or rich enough to merit someone's approval. So stop trying. The choice will always be the other person's.
No, I'm not having a bad day.
No PMS.
And no pessimism at work around here. I like Daria and find her perception uncanny, but eyeglasses are the only thing we have in common.
This is an interesting social phenomenon I've simply been a staunch believer of.
It's true, ain't it?
Anyone who disagrees otherwise is probably living in Pollyana-land.

Like my friend said:
Pretty costumes and pretty abs do not make a GREAT film. So listen up, Hollywood gods of (dis)illusion..
I will not extend nothing to you other than my big fat middle finger.
Throw away the eating disorders and get tapeworm instead.
And maybe something like inspiration and epiphany will come through.
While we're at it: Damn you Lindsay Lohan for ruining a perfectly great Stevie Nicks song. You should be jailed for blasphemy.

"That does not keep me from having a terrible need of — shall I say the word — religion. Then I go out at night to paint the stars." — Vincent Van Gogh in a letter to his brother
The night sky doesn't fall short of putting up a show whenever wonder hits me and I look up to see the stars. A dancing comet.. a shooting star... a faintly glowing planet that beckons from so far..
And I marvel at how vast the universe is and how the distance from the top of my head to that of another planet is so incredibly incalculable and immense, there are simply no words to describe it. The universe is an astonishing conundrum. Our knowledge of it can only extend until the next solar system a few light years from ours. But what is beyond that? What is beyond the beyond of the other beyond? It's almost infinite.
Scientists have tried to explain the unfathomable by their theories and studies. But, is there a mathematical formula for that unbearable lightness called the sky? Hawking's study of time satisfied this curiosity.. And if his postulations are right, and, when you think about it..
Our lives are just a fraction of a millisecond in the timeline of the universe.

Starlets

When I was younger, it usually takes a lot for me to crack up. I'm the slow simmer type. But getting old (read: older) does a lot of things to the head and to my all too becoming fragile psyche.
I'm suddenly channeling the Irish.
Quick tempered, irrational, and yeah, a little glib when inspiration hits.
Maybe I don't know where I'm getting at but all I know is this:
I have a different timeline than most people, so I'm taking a little drama out of the first day of the year and treat it just like any other day. I will not make promises I know I won't keep and I won't write stubborn resolutions that would in the end just annoy the hell out of me.
