A Quote
“Lucifer may not control you unless you let him, but that does not stop him from influencing your controlling emotions for better or for worse to drag you further from eternal life with God” - Charles “Chad” Olivieri (2/26/2012)

Sub-conscious Denial
I'm not sure why I can't accept what I know to be the truth, but as much my heart is willing, something in my head will not let go. I'm talking about the first time I've ever asked a girl out on a date. Some of my (currently imaginary) readers may say, "What's the big deal?", while others may understand what I think I'm going through.
Let me start with what happened. So I finally worked up enough courage to ask, asked, and she said that she didn't see it going beyond being friends. Now I don't mind that, not even a little bit ... okay I was a little disappointed. But, my heart knew that if she said [no], that that would be okay because having honest friends is something I'm still new at (you can imagine how school sucked without friends), so having another friend is also something to be happy about. However, when I started (unwillingly) "thinking" again, I could not for some reason accept [no] and was always, at least sub-consciously, in some form of denial for well, maybe up even until today. And now I'm venting my frustration at my own inability to stop thinking about it here, so maybe, just maybe, I can understand. I figure that this is pretty much the case for most people (some form of denial), but I want to understand why we as humans get so disappointed when this happens. It might be impossible to answer, but it doesn't stop me from asking the question...
If you haven't already, read how I view heart vs. brain and feeling vs. thought in this blog post: (Will be inserted after post is written). It should explain a few things about this post.

Addicted to Sleeplessness
Alright, imagine this: I've got a minimum of 8 hours of work today, hopefully most of which is driving (means I'm making tips). So I've also got to go get some new glasses in the morning before work since I don't know if I'll have the time to do so in between shifts. Essentially I'm looking at a 7:45 wake up call from my alarm clock, and so it would make sense for me to get a full nights sleep, right?
Well, you'd be correct if I didn't currently have access to EA and Bioware's latest little pet: Mass Effect 3 Multiplayer Demo. So instead of going to bed at midnight, I'm trying to fall asleep at 4:30 in the morning. When the actual game comes out on March 6th, I think I may need to have some friends perform and intervention for me so that I will actually pass school and keep my job.
[Interested parties can submit applications to me by March 1st, filling out form F-3 in triplicate, including two letters of recommendation, and the proof of the existence and thus non-existence of God according to Douglas Adams ....
just kidding]

Another Puff of Logic
Apparently Blogger likes you to have your own blogspot in order to put your name next to your comments on other peoples' blogspots. *Sigh (Don't you dare start singing LMAFAO right now!), well I guess I have two blogs now. I'm not sure how much I'll actually use this for original content, so if you want to be more up to date about what I'm putting into the Blogshpere, go check out my Tumblr:
