It has been TOO long since I lasted posted a blog...this one's a doozy.

Current mood:aggravated

So I just had a thought...

I'm annoyed and bewildered.

I can't tell you the last time I looked at my AIM buddy list and DIDN'T see an away message from someone who thought everyone would want to know what their schedule for the day was.

I have a two-fold problem with this:

A - No matter how important you think your day or life or existence is, don't push your schedule on me. If I checked your profile because you're away, I wanted to see some witty banter, a funny quote, or at the very least the standard, "I'm away from my computer right now." I DID NOT want to know that you're waking up at 6:30 to get ready for school, going to take a test in your advanced animal psychology class, eating lunch at taco bell at PRECISELY 12:15, and then taking a nap from exactly 1:30 - 3pm whereupon you will be spending from 4 to 9pm working at the dry cleaner's so you can make it home by 10 to watch whatever lame show you watch... Please, please, please don't make me be obligated to be interested in your monotonous daily routine so that later, when we happen to chat, I have to ask how your burrito was and what happened at the cleaners. I'd like to think I'm kind enough to not tell you how lame my life is. I'd like to keep my mind free of how lame yours is too.

B - If you're a girl, are you stupid? I'm sure some of you completely trust those on your buddy list, but I'll tell you this. If i'm reading your profile, it means we're most likely buddies. And I know for a fact that I can't be fully trusted. Girls - don't give EVERY guy (known/unknown) your whereabouts on an hourly timeline. Unless you WANT to be stalked and/or have harm done to you, it's in your best interest to not let creepy guys know that you plan to shop at the Gap by yourself this afternoon. Scary shit that nobody needs to know.

Anyway, that's all for now. I'm just not a fan of YOU pushing YOUR agenda on ME. Leave me alone. Last time I checked, I didn't ask for a facsimile of your daily planner. I didn't request a copy of your calendar. I could care less about your plans, unless they involve me and alot of money.

I'll be back soon with another rant. This was fun.

Thanks for reading,

Nick
