…if there is anything better in this world than a good cuddle and a passionate kiss.
…if some people are really as happy as they seem. I think given my sardonic disposition, folks often think I am more negative than I actually am. Are some people really as happy as they try to make people on facebook and twitter believe?
…what being flighty/ditzy is like. is it easier or just a different way of dealing with the bullshit life throws at you?
…what my life would be like if I didn’t have Cindarella and Irish. I’d be lost, most certainly, but how would things be different? Would there be someone else in their places?
…if there is such a thing as fate.
…if people really enjoy tofu or if they are just buying in to the hype.
…what it is like to be a man. I love being a woman, but generally feel it is probably easier. Perhaps not?
…about my future, always. I am perhaps unhealthily focused on the destination, not the journey. Not being present in the present is my Achilles heel.
…if people spend as much time as I do wondering about these things. Yes?

I think when people are really happy it shows without ever having to say it. Same goes for people who always tweet/FB how much they love their significant other. You shouldn’t have to go on social media sites and announce your love for someone. If you love someone then tell them, leave social media out of it. Also, as someone that doesn’t eat meat I can tell you I’ve never had tofu and I never will. It just seems so gross to me.
yes.
re: number one, i want an update.
Vittoria´s last blog ..in which i am fucking tired
Yes.
To number 2, if they were so happy they would shut the f*$k up about it and BE happy, rather than tweet/update. I’m in complete agreement with Ibluca, well said. You seriously don’t want to EVER see the nonsense one of my FB friends puts up.
I’ve always wondered what it’s like to be flighty too. And, I enjoy tofu. Sometimes I just want something a bit bland. Tofu amok is particularly amazing.

I think about this stuff too. And I’m also really trying to be more present.
For what it’s worth, I’m a big fan of tofu. Especially silken tofu mashed up and used in place of ricotta cheese in a meatless lasagna. Something about the silky/gritty texture really appeals to me. And if you’re cooking that takes a while, it absorbs all the flavor.

I would LOVE to be a man just so I could urinate without having to pull my pants down & sit.

Of course I agree with Lbluca. I think if you’re truly happy, you don’t feel the need to spend so much time convincing everyone else you are. I also think that EVERYONE gets upset/pissed off/sad sometimes. Emotions are good, in measure, why not experience them?
I feel like people think I’m more negative than I am, because I’m willing to say when I think something is bullshit and I talk about things when they upset me. And because I happen to be realistic about most things. I don’t think it’s wrong or negative to just be honest.
shine´s last blog ..The atheism post I actually meant to write
You are most definitely NOT alone in your wonderings. I think I could lose whole hours of whole days wondering about the whos and whys and whens and HOWS of my life.
Hannah´s last blog ..“I see you”
I actually do like tofu. Especially when it’s fried.
Olga @ MangoTomato´s last blog ..Guest post- My dads vegetable soup
I think people are usually lying about being happy, especially if they tend to plaster it everywhere. Then again, when I am very happy, I often have a hard time knowing what to do with it.
I have often wondered about that as well - more specifically, what I would be like as a man. Would I have had more professional success (not that I’m doing too shabby at this point)? Would I have felt lost in the world, given my interests? I probably would have had more girlfriends at a younger age, but then again, maybe I’d be that bitter lonely nerd. It’s really hard to say.
Vie´s last blog ..To All of My Pregnant Friends
I’ve always wanted to be a man for 48 hours, during which time I’d want to pee standing up and play Harold Hill in “The Music Man.” Odd, I know.
jordanbaker´s last blog ..Top Chef All Stars- Deja Vu All Over Again
The only way I’m able to survive these days is to stay in the present. Always. I have to. Or I will implode again and back down the rabbit hole. It’s hard work, trying to stay present.

“…what being flighty/ditzy is like. is it easier or just a different way of dealing with the bullshit life throws at you?”
Also, do dumb people know they are dumb? Do they feel dumb?
The Maiden Metallurgist´s last blog ..22 Weeks
I wonder if the next time someone tells me to “smile” or to “cheer up,” I will murder them.
Remember it is a journey…..I know it’s a gift, that’s why they call it a ‘present’. Just a little reminder that we love you!!!
Happy people on Twitter bug the crap out of me. I don’t need my Twitter feed to look like a romantic comedy - I want it to look like Saw 273 so I feel better about being a bitter asshole.
I like tofu. I used to not at all, but then I learned the joy that is baked tofu crisps. Like chips, only, you know, not. Ditzy is my defense mechanism at work. No one should trust someone who always acts happy.
Racquel Valencia´s last blog ..Sisters
Yes!
I wonder about much more superficial things than that too
Dream in Grey´s last blog ..a youtube moment
Hahaaa so many good points here for discussion. You’d be great to have a night of drinking and bitching (errr, intellectual discussing?) with.
I’m late to the party, but wanted to say even though I rarely eat meat, I rarely eat tofu either. It’s hard to cook in an appealing way and even then is just sort of meh. I don’t even believe it’s that good for you.
Tempeh on the other hand, can be pretty damn good. Recipe here: http://frugalveganmom.wordpress.com/2010/11/17/orange-maple-tempeh-recipe-experiment-success/
