diary part 261

Since I mostly use this thing as my diary anyway, and since writing in diaries is what one does when one can't / won't / ain't / warn't / 'tisn't (a)sleep(ing), here goes:

I need pretty serious lumbar support when sitting on this couch.

I am beginning to realize that I don't actually know even the slightest things about how to pursue a female person. The last time I really succeeded, I was 15 and didn't actually do anything other than sit next to her in all of my classes. Does this explain why I sometimes wish I could go back to high school? I just don't know what I'm doing.

Also, being attracted to someone feels a lot different than it did in high school. Back then, it was all stomach and no head. Now, I analyze everything like crazy. Even thinking I'm attracted to someone is something that I seriously question. I never used to wonder why I was attracted, or whether I should be. I mean...should I be attracted to someone I really almost never talk to nor have any good way of communicating with? These days it seems like I can hardly convince myself that I am attracted, not because I'm not, but because it just seems preposterous.

This is the first time I've ever tagged a blog post with 'girls'. It probably isn't the last.

Funny... cause a post came immediately to mind that "should" have been tagged 'girls', but I went back and looked and it wasn't. :)

Oh well. :-P

ignoring the bit at the beginning about "anchoring" (I have no idea what he's talking about there), this will give you an opportunity to work on your B minor transitions as well as the sleeplessness. worked for me for many, many years...
