INTERSTELLAR.

They're saying Pluto's not a planet anymore. I heard about this in the grocery store. My stock of hohos was swiftly dwindling and my supply of hot pockets needed replenishing, which explains why I was shopping at all; unless Kate or someone comes over with bags of processed food and cheap wine, my cupboards and refrigerator stay fairly bare save

My biggest regret?

A little blonde pixie I dated in high school. I believed the wrong people when they told me she'd been cheating on me. Crushed her under my heel like I was Rommel, and found out years later at our reunion that it just wasn't true at all.

[haileyleisha]

Ugh, heinous. Still, though, you can't really regret decisions like that if you look at them from an alternate perspective. Like, if you had believed her, stayed with her, who's to say that she wouldn't have ended up pregnant and you'd be back in your hometown working as a mechanic or something to feed your accidental baby. It'd difficult to gauge, though, because who says you wouldn't have been perfectly happy in that kind of life, too?

It's the what if's that kill a person's spirit, I think. There are too many talented people, too many people whose hearts are the biggest, grandest things about them, that never do anything, because before they even try, they've what-if'ed something to death, instinctively. It's sad, really. Makes me cry. Admittedly, not as much as the Cubs losing in the 8th makes me cry, but you know, it's a thing that bothers me sometimes, in the depths of the night when I got nothing else going on.

This is why people take up drinking, Piven. I really try not to what-if things. Because I know that whatever decision I make, I made it in the moment and at the time, it was right for me. Maybe you needed that incident to teach you about trust, you know? Because in the grand scheme of things, this whole thing could have set you up for something better. I like to believe that old adage, everything happens for a reason. I have to, I guess, because if the world and life aren't all intricately connected, then we're all alone. This comment makes me sound as if I have spent all night smoking pot.

Why thank you! I worked hard on it because I was like, shit, this is the first one that anybody's going to read and if they don't like it, they'll never come back. I never get the coupon person, just the mildly disheveled and equally confused person.

I will use it, I promise, even though I'm starting to be one of those annoying people, too.

I have very little patience, but if I find that I'm sure something is worth waiting for then I can wait for as long as it takes. My screenname is throwback usher, and I'm usually always on.

[haileyleisha]

You and me are the same on that, then. You should see me when I'm driving; I have to hold myself back from getting out of the car and stabbing someone. But when it comes to something that I want, yeah, as long as it takes. I will add you and say hello!

Haha see this is why I always order my groceries online whenever I can. The Pluto thing freaks me out, I mean it's one thing because it's all small and stuff but I was talking to a friend who was all upset because this totally screws with her astrological charts somehow? I don't know but it sounded serious. It's funny because I've gone back and forth on the label question, and at the same time it's like how you talk about people seeing you in ways you're not, as annoying as it is to go I'm a ______, at least that gives some protection and keeps you from having to go into a big explanation of yourself with each person you meet. That icon is so adorable. If you stop being a person who rarely signs on, I can try and find my way to you.

[haileyleisha]

I didn't even know that that was possible, but now that you've said it, I'm not surprised. I was thinking about that, too, how does it fair for astrology? Does this mean when they were all, your moon is in Pluto this month, they were all bullshitting me? That's a very good way to put it. I'm a ______, but I have a strict no man-meat policy. I really don't mind flirting with a variety of all sexes, but I'm not usually actively pursued by members of the opposite sex, so I can count on one hand the times I've had to explain myself. I actually am a signy-on type of person, it's just been a busy week. Tomorrow night'll be better. Meet me then? Or in Montauk, perhaps I need to sleep.

[asia_argento]

You totally can! At least in most cities, I'm in Hong Kong now and it's a little more of an uphill job. Although there's places open at all hours and all kinds of people riding by on their bikes so who knows. Or have the astrology people been reading the stars all wrong all this time? Maybe it'll create a schism. Maybe the astrologers and the scientists will go to war. I'd pay to see that, actually. Oh me too, we can order off the same menu. Haha I wish I had your natural immunity, you will have to teach me. I'll be at whatever coordinates you give me.

[haileyleisha]

This is the best amenity western civilization has to offer I think. I can shop in the comfort of my own home, even while I'm laying around naked and disgusting. It would make a lot of sense, as my horoscope is never actually accurate. For the most part, I think they're all pretty general anyway; they could apply to just about anyone. It's the power of persuasion, you know? It's not very hard, I've found, if you're loud and obnoxious as humanly possible and you frequently make offhanded remarks about how you'd have liked to be the guy that performs circumcisions. Tonight, tonight!

[k_moennig]

i think you know everything there is to know about me. excluding one thing, a metaphor for my life is uranus!!!!!!!

[haileyleisha]

Oh, I knew that. When you're stoned, you treat me like a Real World confessional booth, I know all your tawdry secrets. So with that remark, you have now earned yourself the name Ian McKellan.

[k_moennig]

only if you're elijah wood. the lord of my ring.

[haileyleisha]

Sigh, blowjob, rimjobs, etc.
