>Are you going to stand there, fiddling with your phone or sit down and socialize with us? What do you have at home that’s so important?

Lemme ask you. Do you honestly think I want to be here until past midnight, listening to you get drunk and loud?

>We are here because your sister is leaving tomorrow and we are saying goodbye.

I was told we were eating over. I have told you this repeatedly. I expect to go there, eat, and then leave. I didn’t want to eat and listen to you laugh and talk for four hours while I sit here like a jackass.

>What are you so antsy for that you just need to leave?

I'm going to hang out with friends from the internet and watch funny videos.

This is why I don't go home. I love my family, but being with them bring me no pleasure. So when I go home I just sit around doing half the normal things I do and sometimes do activities with them like a board game or see a movie, as well as meals. But overall I'm bored as fuck and I get depressed because I can't do everything I usually do and I feel that I'm letting them down.

I don't like doing that, but because I always feel weird looking at myself. Like, I know exactly how chubby I am and my various defects, but it's still discoserting when I look in the mirror. Like I have some sort of far-more-suave mental image of myself and when I see a photo or a mirror it just wrecks that ideal.

So you're picturing yourself as you'd ideally appear in the Matrix?

All kidding aside, I think most people do that. For example, my self-image is of a me with, among other things, flawless skin (instead of covered in body hair, acne scars, and stretch marks that randomly appeared one year despite me not gaining any weight), perfect teeth (instead of crooked and one chipped), and a smooth face befitting James Bond (kinda forced to grow facial hair to make myself appear as a legitimate adult, and I HATE IT), and of course tanned and trim. My reaction when I look in the mirror is basically, "Who is this ugly old fucker, and why am I in his body instead of my own?!" I'm sure that it's not at all healthy to do this, but it's hardly as bad as it could be. God help me if I somehow manage to get old enough to start getting legitimate wrinkles.

Come to think of it, my ass is rather flat, y'know — for a gay guy. Maybe I should get butt-implants. Might distract from the rest. A bigger dick could help, too. Mine's literally below-average; should I be more bothered by that?
>> No. 388352

It's not that I don't get along with my family, it's that everything I do is kind of above their heads and I have trouble explaining it to them, and they don't want to particularly listen to me since part of it is hyperbole they don't agree with. I face the same kind of challenges with other people but the problem is that talking with other people can produce real changes in my life, whereas talking with my family doesn't.

Well don't leave me hanging. Are they!?

Also, I spent like 3 hours looking for BDSM stuff in my state yesterday. It's either really hard to find or people are just quiet about their fetishes. It should not be this difficult to find someone who wants to tie me up. I know this is sexual, but it makes me wonder what other kind of hobbies people are hiding from the world. It's a good subject for a writing project. I think I'll get right on that.

So I have a loft bed, which is nice for my small room. I don't use the guard rails because I'm a very stiff sleeper; I rarely move from the position I fall asleep in.

So this morning my alarm goes off and I move to swing myself over onto the ladder. I guess I was still half asleep, and instead swung myself over the side of the bed. The five foot fall was far less painful than I thought it would be, though my mobile file box suffered some damage.

I also managed to kick my monitor and half the stuff off my desk under the bed.

So that's one way to start a week.

Well, Girl B hasn't gotten back to me yet as to when she wants to get a drink. I texted her my full name so she could add me on fb (she admitted she doesn't use it much, which is understandable) and I'm flat broke right now (until Tuesday after next, at least) so I don't mind waiting a while.

Still, I don't want to let her think I've forgotten about her - I haven't called her since last Monday, should I ring her again to get a definite date?

As for Girl A... I haven't spoken to her much on fb. I'll try and get in touch either tomorrow of Wednesday.

I think I figured out this throat thing: Acid Reflux Disease.

I've dealt with Acid Reflux many, many times in my life, but it's always been lower in the esophogus, like I was having mild heartburn. This is higher up, in the collar bone region, and it never occurred to me that this could be the cause. Since I still have a supply of generic prilosec, I'll take that (about two weeks worth) and that should be that. It was a regular thing during college when my diet was horrible, but after I got out it greatly improved (mainly dropping soda) and I dealt with only when I had a binge period (normally from travel) or bad stress.

However, I had neither around the time this started, so I'm not sure of the trigger. I am positive that this is what I'm dealing with now, though.

Same. I was surprised just how bad it was and how great the difference.

However, I have this weird thing now where I feel "taller" when I'm not wearing my glasses. Not that I feel shorter when I do wear them, but when I'm not it's like I'm 6" taller. It's a nice feeling, even though my eyesight gets kinda shitty.

My nearsightedness is so bad that, without my contacts in, I cannot read standard text without getting so damn close to it (we're talking less than four inches) that it starts to blur because my eyes cannot focus on anything that close.

Which is crap because it makes me feel like I'm getting old. When I was a little kid I could touch my nose to paper and be able to study the grain. Now I can't discern fine details if I get closer to something than three inches or so. Well, I can still see well enough to realize that the individual pixels on my LCD screen are actually composed of nine sub-pixels.

It's actually one of the reasons I'm hesitant about getting laser eye surgery, besides the cost and that I'm paranoid they'll fuck up and ruin my life. I don't want to lose my ability to see things so closely. The logic tells me that I can always get a magnifying glass, but if my contacts fall out I literally become legally blind; that I need to see far off things clearly all throughout the day, but see things super-close-up only a few times per week at the most. But still! I don't want to suddenly be unable to paint with eighth-millimeter precision; I don't want to suddenly be unable to tell the difference between a flea and a tick by studying the anatomy; I don't want to suddenly be unable to discern the flatness of the tip of a needle. I know none of these are particularly useful, but it's a matter of pride to have microscopic vision.

Pretty much any Disney princess is in, though you'd have to do the hair to make any kind of distinction.

Rang B a few hours ago - we managed to agree on Wednesday (she wanted to try this weekend, but I'm poor as fuck until Tuesday) where Ill met her after she's done with college.

As for A... it's not like I don't want to keep in touch with her, but it seems like she's never on facebook at the same time as me (a situation made even more irritating when facebook says she's available to chat, and then it says she's been away for about 6 minutes). I'd send her a text, but I have £1 worth of credit left on my phone and she tends to send long texts (I'd feel like sending short texts in response would give even impression than current silence).

I just don't want to fuck things up.
