...the time you see is... real. I just got in from a fraternity function - and I'm not as tired as I would normally be. I'm not bolstered by caffeine, really. I should be knuckle-dragging, but I'm not, really. At least I'm not seeing flying saucers. But I had fun, and probably learned a lot more about relationships than I think I did. Even though my attention kept wobbling in between the gaming going on and the girl talking. Yet, even for my inability to multitask, I don't think I lost too much in the deal. Although I may not have actually gained anything, either. Problem of not being in a relationship - other people's experiences only count for so much.

A bit apprehensive, I am, about engaging in a relationship - seeing both the good and the vile effects of them makes things much more interesting for me. Especially since the more I see of them, the more I think I'm completely unqualified for one. The adage about the clue-by-four still applies.

Plus, I'm confuzzled again. I think I know something that I think I know, but haven't had anyone officially say to me, or if they did, it was something I wasn't supposed to remember, and so I didn't. But I saw a sign of it again and wondered whether I had been told of this and just hadn't seen anything to reinforce it, as well as the possibility of some other things being true. Very confusing, but it would be somewhat impolite of me to ask about it, I think. Just because it really shouldn't matter at all to me. The only reason I'd want to know is so that I could avoid giving offense over the matter... it would be unintentional, but it would be better if it didn't happen. Confused you guys enough yet? It's one of those things I'd rather say without saying, because to make the wrong assumption would be foolish, but curiosity would like to know so that I don't look foolish. Catch-Twenty-Two. Maybe I'll ask someone else, with the appropriate prefacing and bowing and scraping and disclaiming and get an answer and not look like an idiot in the process. Probably not possible, but I can try. Still, something best left for tomorrow. Today. Whatever.

Dolphins use language, but do they ever worry about being P.C. (The Pope apparently doesn't, if you read the latest from him. Abortions and genocides are really two different things.)

*sigh* Oh well. If I look like an idiot, so be it. It won't be the first time, and it certainly won't be the last, and if I can hide behind honest curiosity, then I might squeak by with minor blows.

Weirdo's rules for this 5 minute period

[greyweirdo.livejournal.com]

Rule 1: looking like an idiot is part of life. You're probably going to have to look like one at some point, might as well be earlier than later.
Rule 2: So long as you can laugh to, there's not much shame at people laughing at you.
Rule 3: Living involes getting hurt. The person who never gt hurt, never tried anything and thus never lived.

And in case you're wondering about further rules

Rule 6: There is NO rule six!
Rule 7: No poofters
Rule 42: All persons more than a Mile High, must leave the court

"if I can hide behind honest curiosity, then I might squeak by with minor blows."

That is an excellent opinion to take.

I think relationships are okay, but I don't like this societies system of relationships. Serial monogamy based on various weird statuses and such-like gets confusing.

Actually, the matter of relationships and the matter of confusion are separate things. One has very little to do with the other. Perhaps in tonight's entry I will posit the hypothetical that has confused me so.

You're in a FRAT?

Surely you jest.

[silveradept]

Well, yes.

But not really.
