PICS
NEVER ask me if i am ok.
chances are, im probably not; but chances also are that you dont really want to hear a sob story, either, so just give me a hug instead. that will cheer me up much more than another pointless 'are you ok'.
another thing i despise is when you greet someone and they beat you to it and say 'hows it going?' or 'howya doin?'
i never know how to respond to that. its such a casual question. the interrogator obviously doesnt care to hear how im doing, so how is one supposed to respond? 'fine?' thats so lame. in my opinion, 'fine' and 'sorry' are the two most used words in the english language; and the two most MISused words. if you ask how someone is doing and they answer 'fine', its a lie. nobody is 'fine.'
and it is extremely rare for a person who is sincerely apologizing for something they did wrong to say 'sorry' and mean it.
and phrases overused to the point of being beaten into the ground? 'i love you' comes immediately to mind. i never say it unless i mean it. fortunately, i love a lot of people. a lot more people than i did when i was married.
whats the difference between Love and Infatuation and Obsession? are they all the same thing? or is Love some separate category all of its own that i just havent experienced yet? or maybe i have. i dont know. i guess thats why im asking.
im tired and my back hurts. i was on my feet for five hours today doing updos. some girl came in with her entourage; celebration for a sweet sixteen, and ALL ten or so of them needed updos.
christ, youre turning 16, youre not a bride. anyway, im a perfectionist to the core, so i take my sweet time with haircuts and updos and color because EVERY STRAND OF HAIR has to be in the right place. and now my back is killing me. linsey and others have suggested better shoes, insisting that the arch support and inserts and super special sole will help my back somehow. i dont know about that. i am skeptical. and i like my converse, thank you very much. my converse and i have been through a lot together.
anyway, i dont really NEED new shoes at the moment, so im going to let that sit and digest for a while. i hate shoe shopping if its for athletic shoes. if im shopping for stilettos, platforms, open-toe or peep-toe maryjanes, strappy heels, five inch vinyl boots with a variety of nonsensical buckles and zippers; THAT i love. but tennis shoes? boring. booorrring.
i wish i could get everything on my wishlist. id be a happy fucking girl.

Woah! 
Am I glad I "met" you today, I soooo agree with you. Tho thas prolly a lame thing to say, ghaha. There's 2 phrases you will not ever hear out of my mouth: "trust me" and "believe me". Everyone seems to just add that to anything they tell you. Shut the eff up! Trust is something you gain from me and it's a very delicate thing, and believing you? Come on, I won't just believe you cus you say so, that comes in time. I hate it when people use those phrases, they completely lose their meaning. Either I trust you or I don't. I believe you or I don't. And vice versa of course. But NOT cus you just said so. *sigh* Am I weird? Ghahaha.
I do love my sneakers btw, gimme a good pair of DC's or Nike SB's any day. But yeah, I'd happily join you and look for new five inch vinyl boots with a variety of nonsensical buckles and zippers for you. 
Now go have a smoke, flip your finger at the world, and then get back to herding these ig'nant sheep....

Ok... first of all **BIG ASS MUTHAFUCKING HUG!!!**
There...
Now, on to the next rant...
Personally when I'm in a shitty ass mood and people ask how I'm doing I simply say "I'm alive, so I guess that counts for something", that usually either gives them a casual laugh or simply makes them give out a "ooookayy..." and they just drop it.
I am so like you on the love issue. It pisses me of how over used and under meant it is and I'm usually the kind of person who'll stop someone in their tracks if I see they use that word after a couple of days or weeks of knowing me. Love is a bitch to find and a battle to maintain, and anyone who can be so casual about it obviously doesn't understand it's meaning.
As for love and obsession, I'll tell you this... The only difference between love and psychosis is whether or not the other person feels the same way. That's it! If you love the person that you know and he all of a sudden gives you gifts and calls you all the time just 'cause he misses your voice you'll be in cloud nine. If you don't love him and he does that, you're calling the cops and filing a restraining order, simple as that.
Now... to simply upload a video you just hit the youtube button on the "insert" menu and copy and paste the url of where the video is on youtube. Here... I'll show you...
By the way... love your taste in shoes 
Take care hon... and have a great weekend!!!

you might want some insoles for your converse! more padding and arch support can help!

I'm also annoyed by the 'howya doin" people constantly throw out, but I finally decided the best solution is just to treat it as equivalent to "hi". So now, whenever I get one of those I just say "hi" back and move right along. Works like a charm.
Decent arch supports can help, and if you want to keep wearing the Converse, there are scads of good inexpensive arch support inserts available these days...
