Let’s Get Together / Haley Mills
do you ever get the feeling that you are having a conversation and just not getting anywhere? i have these conversations in my head a lot. i picked up a book from barnes&noble the other day about learning to relax. so far the only thing i have learned is that when i worry i let my thoughts spiral out of control. one worry leads to another worry and down the line they get less and less rational. and i was reminded that taking ten deep breaths would help… but i have that whole inability to focus thing i really need to work on.
and i’d like to just apply my favorite notion that if you can’t deal with/solve the problem you should learn how to prevent it.
and it all starts with my inability to say no to people. i can’t say no. and it leads to a lot of rock-hard place situations that i’ve landed myself in. if only i had said no in the first place, i might not be so stressed out. i create 99% of my problems. and 1% of my problems are caused equally by hate commenters and alcohol. i would make a pie chart but i would most likely spend three hours picking out the colors and well, frankly, i’m supposed to be sleeping right now.
here is my game plan: i will now tell everyone no, except bartenders. and i will write on here more often especially when i am awake at hours i shouldn’t be. and then 30% of my problem will be alcohol related, 17% of my problems will be the haters, 50% of my problem will be shit i’ve created because i still can’t say no, and 3% will be because i said no.
and if that doesn’t add up to 100% you are going to have to wait until i can find my TI-83 because i have no fucking clue where i’ve left it. and i’m supposed to be sleeping.
