Ode to Narcissism

An update.

I’m feeling down.  The boy is on a two week trip to Aruba for a tournament, and I miss him more than I thought I would.  Which makes me feel kind of pathetic.

In addition, family relations are a bit tense at the moment.  Money is still low.  At least tomorrow is payday, although at this point I owe enough money that most of it will be gone before I can blink.

I saw Burn After Reading last week and it was shocking and hilarious.  I liked it.

Spent Saturday night in San Diego with my cousins.  I got way too drunk, and family issues were brought up (as they normally are when we get together).  I am pretty open, especially with people like my cousins who already know the dirt anyway, but it was hard hearing some things about my dad.  I know how he is, but the fact that everyone else in “the family” knows what a fucking asshole he used to be (and can still be) is a bit embarrassing.  Also, there was a long discussion on how we women are man-haters who love men.  It’s like being addicted to something that is extremely bad for you.  We stay way too long with the bad ones, completely ruin the nice ones, and (the lucky women) end up with someone who can take it and dish it out (which, to me, is the perfect combination).  Hopefully I’m one of the lucky ones, but time will tell, I guess. 

I can’t write anymore at the moment.  It isn’t helping.
