Just because I NEEDED to know that...

Time = 4:21 PM

Mood = half happy, half annoyed. Happoyed?

Music = Ghost Town by the Shiny Toy Guns

What I SHOULD be doing = Having a shower

Random fact about me = Sometimes I wish my life was a musical.


Here's something that bugs me. Why do people think that you want to hear really depressing news? Like "Here's something I just heard on the news! It disturbed me so much!" It's like Why thank-you, I needed to hear something disturbing. It completed my day. Everybody knows that nobody thinks like that. If you hear something disturbing, keep it to yourself. I mean really.

Okay, so I get it. Sometimes, when you hear something like that, you need to debrief, but I wish people wouldn't always come to me with shit like that. I don't need to hear about who died tragically in an accident as I was leaving the library. And then feel bad because I was out having fun at the mall. It's just not necessary. What's worse is when they ask you if you've heard about it, and when you say no, they immediately decide to inform you. Do people assume your day isn't complete without a little depressing tragedy on the side?

Personally, I'd be absolutely delighted with a day when nothing went wrong, and I actually managed to keep a good mood the whole day. Today's not so bad though, waiting for the olympics makes me feel a bit happier.

Now I just need to shout from the rooftops... KEEP YOUR DEPRESSING NEWS TO YOURSELF! OPTOMISTIC IGNORANCE IS MY LIFESTYLE OF CHOICE.

...even though this blog really doesn't sound like it.

Happy Olympics day.
