Bikes and Stuff

Thursday, May 18th, 2006

So I’ve been on a spending spree lately. I’m not sure if I can afford all this “stuff” that I’ve just bought, but oh well. Work this Summer should cover everything… right?

I just bought my bike today, it came up to be a fair chunk of cash but it looks to be a sweet bike. It’s a hybrid, and I got it equipped with lights, fenders, and a computer even! Now the question stands of whether or not I’ll actually use it much this summer.

As you may have noticed, there’s a tiny coachella link on the top of my webpage. I figure that lately I haven’t had the time or energy to finish off my blog report, so I’m thinking it’d probably be much easier if I post it in installments. Eventually it’ll get done soon hopefully.

But there’s not much that can be written about it tonight, as I’m way too tired. Why? I had a “date” with Ash last night and we ended up arguing for most of the night. Little sleep was had, and my sleep talking kept her up for most of the night. I’ve learned that when women suffer, they must make men suffer with them.

I think we both slept terribly (sorry, I feel it’s more my fault somehow).

I’m not quite sure where she and I stand now that I’m back, and by no means has it been all roses. I find it so strange that sometimes we treat those who are “close” to us worse than complete strangers. Somehow being familiar with someone makes us feel as though we have a right to vent our “crap” on others, “crap” that we wouldn’t dare throw at our friends.

I’m not accusing or bad-mouthing her specifically, but I make this observation in myself as well and I’ve done it and have received it from other people in my past.  It feels as though we’re doing this to each other, when oddly enough after not seeing each other for a period of time we’d think that we could avoid this.  It’s honestly really stupid though that this does happen, and I try so hard to fight it because it’s not nice. I would want to treat someone close to me better than some random stranger, and I would rather be treated similarly too.

I mean, if the purpose of spending time with someone who’s “close” is to enjoy life with them… but in the end we take those people for granted, then what’s the point at all.

So all I’m saying is, taking people for granted really sucks. So anyways, that’s the end of my tangent and my post. I’ve really got to stop this blur of life that’s happening lately, and when that happens maybe my blog posts won’t be such a mind-blur as well.
