Emotional Distance
I spend so much effort attempting to avoid the appearance of vulnerability that I rarely acknowledge how I feel about people.  This goes for close, long time friends and newer introductions to my life.  I try to keep everyone at a safely analytical distance, because I’m afraid of the intensity of my own emotions. It’s hard to have genuine connections to people when I spend so much...

Seeking a frontier
I wish there was an unexplored and uninhabited place to colonize.  If there were space colonies, I’d sign up to ship off.  I’m ready for an adventure, and to learn about myself through real challenge and adversity.  I need to be pushed by circumstances to step up, and I want a complete break.  I would probably die in the process of such an adventure, but at least it would be an...

Added to my personal visions of hell
There is an area of the sub-basement where I now have to go to drop off blood samples to a particular lab.  When I walked into the area for the first time today the lights were flickering, there was a constant buzzing/humming sound, and everything just looked run down and shabby.  The people walking around down there whom I can only assume work there made me feel abundant pity.  It felt like the...

Repulsive progressive hypocrisy →
Repulsive liberal hypocrisy extends far beyond the issue of Guantanamo. A core plank in the Democratic critique of the Bush/Cheney civil liberties assault was the notion that the President could do whatever he wants, in secret and with no checks, to anyone he accuses without trial of being a Terrorist – even including eavesdropping on their communications or detaining them without due...
