I don't understand why people set the table when they know everything is going to be moved after grace is said and food set out.

I've never been one to make my bed
or set tables
or doll much of anything up (other than myself :p)
So, I think I understand where you're coming from.
I've always kind of thought people who use so much effort making things appear spectacular are compensating for something.
Like lack of confidence
or personality
or productivity.
But maybe that's just me.
I enjoy your comment on surprises and cheating boys and angry girls.
Hopefully you'll get to reflect on darling boys and lovestruck girls soon.

Thank youuuuu .. I would love to write a book someday or be like Carrie Bradshaw and write a column but then I think people would have to be mean to me and my friends all the time, which would be unfortunate. Maybe I should start writing about happy things. And unmean people. Wow I never even realized how much I write about mean people until just this moment!!!!
Thank you Aidan!
I would love to rub ANYTHING in Joseph Conrad's face .. especially poop .. still working on Heart of Darkness I presume?

Life is life and anything can happen.
We happened, they happened.
People leave, I'll stay (right where you left me).
I'll figure it out, because ... that's life!
This. You're incorporating many philosophical ideas here, even though you may not see them. When you're able to understand something, not as people tell it to you, but for yourself, you will understand all.
