Oh the insomnia of it all. Hardly any sleep tonight, so I just gave up and figured I'd pour my thoughts into my brand-spankin' new SG journal. Kinda liberating knowing noone reads it anyway.
Right now I'm worked up over a narrow minded 'comment card' that was turned into my place of business regarding on of my co-workers who is an openly gay man. This comment card basically said that they wish they had had someone Christian help them, instead of a gay man who could never have kids and therefore was ill-equipped to advise them. I felt terrible for him and all of the homosexuals I work with because they have to deal with this sort of bigotry and the whole world should have freakin' known better on this issue for at least the last 50 years. And I felt angry at the jerk who wrote it because it was so freakin' righteous in tone while simultaneously being so obviously evil and sick. Narrow-minded, stupid fucks.
Funny thing - I'd much rather my journal had a more positive tone... but the things that keep me awake are the things that piss me off. I've got all kinds of nice things to write about-- my art, my wonderful gf and our perfect little boy, how beautiful the world is, cats, the color red... so many awe inspiring thngs I get to witness every day. Maybe after I go back to sleep and wake up later, I'll post another entry about something wonderful.
