What if there was a pet store called "The Three Blind Mice"? Or better yet, a bar. Am I the only one who thinks that would be funny?
Today I reconnected with my childhood and blew a whole lot of bubbles.
So I was thinking that I would write about one of my favorite topics today: Shallow People!
Actually, it's not my favorite topic. Just one of my favorites to write about.
Okay, I'll keep this brief; I don't want to bring anyone down with my toxic waste.
I really don't care for shallow people and/or behavior. In fact, it's a borderline hate relationship.
I added the behavior part because I know some people who aren't really shallow, but act like they are. Why they would want to is beyond me, but.... Sometimes that's what I witness in people I see at school. In my friends (Well, some of them).
When my friends are caught up in this shallow behavior, I try to be patient. I let them do what they want to; I don't rag on them because they are making themselves look stupid. They are my friends after all, and if I don't support their choices, then I should at least keep my mouth shut when they talk to me, so I don't say something that would hurt their feelings, and that I would really regret later.
But sometimes.... Ooooh. I just want to sock them.
There's only so much one person can take. And I guess that there are times when it doesn't seem so important, the way they are acting. Those are the times when you can see the light: when they say or do something that makes you think, "Gee, there's still hope for them!"
And then there are the times when the shallowness acts up, or the sun comes out and evaporates the pool of their souls, and a drought sets in. And they just get smaller and smalllllerrr.....
What really bothers me is when you have a friend who acts completely different when you're hanging out with them one on one. Someone who will be really thoughtful and considerate and insightful when you're alone together, and then who will be like, "Ohmygaaawwwwd!NOWAAAAY?Nawaw.ShedidNOTsaythat,WHATNo,hewouldn'tdosomething,like,sototally,like,um,bad!" when they are in public or a big group of people.
In fact, shallow behavior/people rank #2 on my Grates on my Nerves List. (#3 is country music, and #1 is when someone doesn't put the vacuum cleaner away correctly.)
Thank you for reading that. If you did. I guess I just needed to vent. If this entry connected to you in anyway, I hope it will help.
(Although I feel like I shouldn't really be talking, since this entry has been completely self-centered. Seriously... Count how many times I used the word "I." It's a darn lot. But there is a difference between being self-centered and being shallow. A BIG difference. It just so happens that, more times than not, the combination or no depth and self-centeredness equals a shallow person.)
I'm going to end this entry. It wasn't really worth it for you to read it, since it was mostly a tool for me to express my frustration in a healthy way. (The alternative was expressing it in an extremely UN-healthy way by screaming at someone (e.i. a shallow person) and throwing a pair of my dirty socks at them. Repeatedly.)
Before I sign off, I'd like to mention the Polish President, Mr. Lech Kaczynski, and the First Lady, Mrs. Maria Kaczynski, and all of the other polish officials. It is a very sad event that has happened. No one expected the plane to crash. Let all the souls who were on that plain find peace in heaven.
Thanks for reading.
