I saw some pictures of some girls I grew up with (but have moved away from) in the newspaper because we are all graduating, and I can't beleive how beautiful some of them have become. I'm kinda angry I missed out on that....
I've never feared Death or Dying. I've only feared never Trying.
Hurray! Now you get to experience the crappy part of life! Responsibilities, bills, budgeting, and no summer, spring, or winter breaks and such! Sounds like a blast, no?

I disagree. While it is true that I am not facing all of the responsibilities of adulthood yet, I take my independance over high school any day. I do not miss High School one bit (Well, ok, I miss the abundance of hot girls, but none of them would sleep with me anyway).
In a Society in which there is no law, and in theory no compulsion, the only arbiter of behaviour is public opinion. But public opinion, because of the tremendous urge to conformity in gregarious animals, is less tolerant than any system of law. When human beings are governed by "thou shalt not", the individual can practise a certain amount of eccentricity: when they are supposedly governed by "love" or "reason", he is under continuous pressure to make him behave and think in exactly the same way as everyone else.

You too? Was it constantly getting stuck in the friend zone, or were you just never even in the ball park to begin with?

Mhm, same here, I never got girls through school. Pubs are much better for that.
The F$*^&%King cat chewed through the cord to my cell phone charger. I'm slowly backsliding into a life without technology. Soon I will wake up to realize that I've forgotten how to make fire or chip a stone into a spearhead...

Oh man, I was so far out of the ball park that I was playing hockey...well video games actually.
Even if I wasn't the biggest nerd in the world, I am...abrasive shall we say? Of course with time I have learned to manage and adapt my callous exterior, but now there are no girls for me to go for. My standards are too high anyway.
I bet you didn't need to know any of that.

Give it 2 or 3 years. You'll be saying the opposite quite a bit, believe me.
Woke up last night unable to breathe, had to fight to get air into my lungs. I would probably dismiss this except the wife ha told me I did this a couple of nights ago too.
May have to go to the doctors for the first time in six years.

That must suck. You don't smoke, do you?
Used to smoke, never heavily even then, but cut right down about 5 or so years ago, I'm a social/event smoker now (thw worst kind !)
I have never ever had any trouble breathing, and whilst I normally pass ailments off, this episode freaked me out a bit.

got some stuff i ordered in, enjoying putting the models together.
cooked a test sample of chicken that soaked overnight in a marinade i threw together, and it tasted pretty good, so i'm happy about that, probably have to test the marinade on more things in the future

You weren't gagging or anything were you?
When I was younger (about 10) I used to sleep on my back. I had to stop though, as I would swallow my tongue as I slept and then I'd wake up choking and gasping for air. I'd stumble around for nearly 5 of the scariest minutes of my life before It would finally dislodge and I'd collapse against the hallway until I could get my breath back.
Course, then I had a full-blown epilepsy attack, and had absolutely no feeling or motor control in any area of my body for about half an hour after I stopped twitching on the floor, so I had to just lie there practically paralyzed, looking around. Couldn't even move my mouth to talk. That's when I had to go to the hospital, get a couple dozen CT scans and a bunch of other crap involving wires and stuff all plugged into my head, and finally a prescription for like 10 different pills.
It's been gone since I was about 12, but I won't forget those nights. Most terrifying experiences of my 21 year life. I'd seriously recommend getting your brain scanned for any wierd electrical activity though. Could be developing Epilepsy. Youth and middle age are the two agegroups that seem prone to getting it.

I'm just plain bad with people. I'm not good at making small talk, and when it becomes a discussion about something, I always have to ge tthe last word in, even if it's just me yelling "YEAH? WELL YOU'RE A DICK!!"
But, I am getting better. I'm actually gonna ask a girl out tommorow, since today when we I managed to keep my crazy inside and make her think I'm (somewhat) sane.
