Today
Unfortunately, after feeling a little better by yesterday evening, we both woke up pretty sick this morning. Since we both have a slight temperature, I decided we'll try to see Obama again another time since we should have a few more opportunities in one of the neighboring states. I didn't tell her about it just in case this happened, so she doesn't know the difference. I feel really run down and my girl is, too. Due to all the lying around in between parental love and stuff, I probably won't be posting much today. I think the only reason I'm posting this is because I've been writing a lot for the first time in a long time, so I want to go on the record that I'm not not posting because I feel confident that I have nothing worth saying, for once, I'm just preoccupied with home stuff. Please, just deal with all those negatives in one sentence. I've decided, I spend too much fucking time obsessing over punctuation and such, so I'm going to stop doing that. I feel like lose my initial tone/voice in the first draft when I worry about that shit. This is why I used to have my professional editor friend proofread my posts sometimes. I do entirely too much second guessing with content to be able self-edit and revel in the stupidity of accidentally typing "there" when I meant "they're." I fuck lines up by trying to "fix" them when half the time they were correct to begin with. It's just a waste of time, and I feel as if I'm only doing it for the one anal asshole out there that's saying, "Oh my god! What is wrong with you? That's not how you use a semicolon!" I love you ya fucking geek, but I just don't care right now in the larger scheme of things. I mean, what, am I going to get a book deal from this retarded blog? I might be dumb, but I'm not that stupid. I have enough external voices from insensitive assholes constantly shoveling negativity on me (I still love you dickheads, but luckily for all of us, you don't read my shit, and if you do, you won't admit it), I just can't give too much attention to the internal 4th grade school teacher squaking at me, "you should use italics instead of quotations!" When I'm not in my head, I am fairly knowledgeable about grammar and punctuation, but not when it comes to reading my own shit. If it really bothers you or if I'm making myself look like a complete dumbass, and you think you like me/my writing, just shoot me an email. I'm not a dick, I'll thank you and change it or I'll decide to leave it. Either live with it or piss off. I'll probably still love you anyway. If there is anyone left out there, I should be posting more later today.
