ostracized

its a good thing everyone is different. i like that everyone is not the same, because things just wouldn't work. for example, if everyone wanted to live in the maxi pad, that would be a problem. unfortunately, i think as humans, we tend to look down on people who are different to us. people who like different restaurants or different movies – we automatically think they have poor taste and think they're less than us. but imagine how much a pain in the ass it would be if EVERYONE wanted to go to the goat. or EVERYONE wanted to rent the same flicks. we'd be frustrated. variety is essential. in a sense it makes the world go round.

DOON'T forget the change your clocks TONIGHT!

sometimes i'm a really crappy friend.

come up to meet you, tell you i'm sorry,
you don't know how lovely you are,
i had to find you, tell you I need you,
tell you I set you apart.
tell me your secrets, and ask me your questions,
oh lets go back to the start.
nobody said it was easy,
no one ever said that it would be this hard.
oh take me back to the start.

hmm.. i think too many people like the goat as it is. i don't want to sit there alone, but really... we're almost at the point of having to get a table from a scalper.

I think that's a very healthy opinion.
I encountered the opposite- maybe prejudice?- from a very close friend this week when I told her about an Indian movie I had seen. She surprised me at how mean she was about it. How she hates listening to the music etc. It really surprised me.

i'm the total opposite. i love going to the goat by myself. i like having company too, but alone is fun for me as well. but i respect our differences ;) besides, the busyness will let up in the good weather.

ya, i hear ya aphra. sometimes it's hard to be open-minded to other people's closed-mindedness.

i didn't mean sitting there alone at my table... i don't mind that. but i wouldn't want to be the only person in the goat all the time. i like watching the people there. usually.
