My daughter suffers with mental health issues, so I always hope I'm a little more sensitive to her needs.
It's awful when random peeple make less-than-helpful comments, but even more galling when they are parents!

Blah. I feel really unfair right now... and yet... 

It's our 2nd anniversary, and I've not heard from my boyfriend. I had worked on not getting my hopes up. He is volunteering at a kids camp these weeks so he can't get to a computer... I know that... but somehow I had this silly little hope that he had sent a delayed a message like he used to do sometimes... just a little tiny message... 

At least this year he's aware, and even felt a little guilty about leaving for the kids camp (which I would probably have been mad about, if he stayed home too...)... 

I know there's worse things in this world and all. But yeah... I miss him. 

That's the one I've ordered, yes.

Now I only wish I could go to Comic Con in Copenhagen... but alas my friend can't come and I'm a bit nervous about going on my own for some reason... 

Though if by some insane luck Benedict turns out to be going there... well *runs*

Okay I need to get this out of my system... 

Firstly I need to say that it's not that I hate all teenagers... just the overly teenaged ones... 

And well, this is about one of those. There's this teenage girl coming to a lot of gatherings my best friend has... we're at least 8 years older than her, and it shows... Some of it can be attested to her mental illness I guess... but I lose my mind having to be around her for too long at a time. She's overly sexual, overly self-centered and awkward... and she only does it for attention.

It's the same girl who broke into a conversation some of us had about Shakespeare and reciting of Romeo and Juliette... because she thought it was too weird and boring. Well, that's the sort of things we do! 

Going to those gatherings are some of the only social things I enjoy because we can have conversations like those... and she ruins it. If someone hasn't looked at her or heard her voice for a minute she yells out something. 

Well, I have to admit I have this cruel hope... she just wrote on facebook that she might not be able to attend my best friend's Birthday. 

 

I am moving up north in little more than two weeks and start being nervous about it. I am looking forward to it and all, but there are some butterflies in my belly that weren't there last week. :-)

Good luck with the move and everything!!

Aw, Schmiezi, bestest of luck for you.

I've had a bit of a funny experience today, and yesterday too... 

There's this group of drunks who occupy a bench at the station and has for years... I've often heard them make comments when I passed, I never bothered listening much, and what I did hear was sometimes rude (though there was once where one of them defended me and told the other one "you can't say that"...) I always hate passing them for so many reasons...

Well, yesterday passing them I managed to hear some of their comments. They were discussing my hairstyle this time. I recently had my hair dyed black and yesterday I put lots it up in pig tails and lots of hair bands in the colours of the pride flag (Copenhagen Pride is on these days)... and one of them went "Oh, she's dressed like a native american today??" and the other one explained about Pride and all that, explaining that was probably why my hair was that way. It was apparently an ongoing conversation and it was a bit sweet. 

 Today I passed them again, and one of them smiled at me and poked the other one
"It's THAT girl again!!"
"Ooooh, what is she wearing today??"

I dress differently than the norm... recently I've gone towards more goth and punk... but I've always been different. I actually take pride in having fun with my style and it helps my anxiety a lot...

Yeah, it kind of is. It would seem you have fans.
