Jesus Christ! A nicely lilting ramble for the masses.

No, not in vain. I've been ignored all day long! Maybe it's my own perception, because it usually is just that. I think I carry a permanently pissy face without thinking about it. People always tells me I look upset, but I really am not angry, most of the time, anyway. People/friends say Monk looks mad, as well. I'm going to guess that most people just don't know us well enough to judge us in that way. It's our own fault, though: we keep everyone else at arm's length. No sense in letting anyone close to you unless they persist.

On another subject, is it horrible of me to enjoy the attentions of other men? They know that I'm not available, but they certainly can be quite charming. I sliced my finger, and one of them got me a band-aid. It was the single most innocently sweet gesture I've ever been on the receiving end of. I'm sure Monk would look at it and claim it was a minor injury (which it really was), but then I would've too. The fact that someone else overreacts to yourminor injury is utterly flattering.

Have a nice day

 

[bluntforcemama]

You too.

Did you get it kissed better at least?

No, it's not perception dear. I've ignored you on purpose.

I mean those aren't my teeth marks on you your ass. So they must be somebody else's. And if you're with somebody else, why should you care whether I ignore you or not?

[bluntforcemama]

Aye, it's not teeth marks. Those are your hand marks.

 

[scylis]

Aye, it's not teeth marks. Those are your hand marks.

i swear, i didn't mean to hit you THAT hard!

 

[Ishmael]

Aye, it's not teeth marks. Those are your hand marks.

Not likely. I generally do a better job at distribution.

You may want to practice smiling a little. I know it sounds stupid, but just try it driving down the road once in awhile. If nothing else it's a great way to burn a few calories.

I too am a victim of the constant pissy face. Mine's a wall that I put up to protect myself. But, I've got to work on letting that one down a little. I've been trying to work on my blank face, or thinking about something pleasant when I feel uncomfortable.

Sometimes it just feels good to smile at a stranger and say hello. And if they don't smile back, you get to roll your eyes and feel silly. Either way, I think friendliness is a good healing thing. It should be practiced regularly.
