I wouldn't be so pissed if it was at least a bad hair day.

It's my last Saturday night before I move. And I'm home alternating between reading a novel and eating ice cream while watching VH1 countdowns.

My inner-girlfriend goes "grrrrrrrr."

Pure Pleasure...

“He did not condemn Lillian. He felt a dreary, indifferent respect for her. His hatred of his own desire had made him accept the doctrine that women were pure and that a pure woman was one incapable of physical pleasure.” –Atlas Shrugged

Sorry to quote literature, it's just that I feel for Lillian right now. But honestly, I doubt it has anything to do with purity. I just think that some of us are borderline corpses.

Issues ensue.

I feel like I was just hit by a truck. I hate this disillusionment. I can even relate to nearly every song lyric I come across.

Yeah. It's that generic.

You must chill. You must chill.

Don't worry, I'm being good. I mean, I have a bit of dignity, people. For instance...

Me: "I have no intention of ever having sex in a car, by the way."
Boyfriend: "Well, that's an unusual thing to declare in advance."
Me: "Maybe. I just think it's a generally floosie-esque thing to do. But being open-minded, I maintain one exception."
Boyfriend: "And what's that?"
Me: "That it's an exact reenactment of the scene in Say Anything."
Boyfriend: "Maybe I should get around to watching that movie..."
Me: "Ha. Like you'd sit through a sappy John Cusack movie."

He won't, by the way.

I want all that stupid old shit, like letters and sodas...

I am officially a two-month-old bimbo. Two months, two crappy and immature friends lost, a few “dates,” a few labels, a few bases, a few ventures into angry “girlfriend mode,” and a little bit of evolution.

Since my venture into bimbosity began, only one thing has really remained the same. That is the expiration date on this deal. In less than two months, circumstance will tear Boyfriend and I apart and, frankly, the thought has never really bothered me. I consider myself emotionally retarded. I don’t really allow myself to get too involved. People tend to find my Dagny Taggart-tastic perspectives unusual, but as soon as I get absorbed into things, I find them less interesting.

When I was younger, I used to wish turmoil and heartbreak upon myself. I wanted so desperately to be inspired from emotional disaster that I often wished myself to be absorbed entirely and nearly destroyed. This was basically because I had run out of songwriting ideas. Anyway, the turmoil has yet to occur, and because I once acknowledged its potential enough to wish for it, it probably will never occur to the degree I had desired. Sometimes I wish I were stupider.

I’m the type of person who can’t organically enjoy a moment because I’m pondering word-choices for when I journal about it later. My entire life is something of an out-of-body experience. Which, I understand, seems genuinely fucked up. Basically, I’m realism over magic.

I kind of want some magic.

Meh.

I re-watched American Pie last night. You know you've reached a new low when you start identifying with Tara Reid.

I want a boy who's so drunk he doesn't talk.

Relationships, contrary to popular belief, are not about love, companionship, or even affection. Like our menstrual cycles, we chicks must use them to our full advantage. Relationships, my friends, are truly about security, vanity, and orgasms. Allow me to elaborate…

Security: When a femme is attached, she never has to spend a Saturday night alone against her will. She becomes exempt from awkward Truth or Dare kisses and she always has someone to hug her on a shitty day. Like PMS, the boyfriend becomes a scapegoat for every bitch or moan, except, unlike PMS, the scapegoat can be crawled back to and is occasionally forgiving and flexible.

Vanity: The other day, I noticed that one of Boyfriend’s friends whom I had recently met posted about me in his LiveJournal. The post contained kind commentary on my personality and appearance (including a celebrity comparison!). Is there something wrong with me if I thrive on this shit? Having someone desire to be associated with you and claim you as his “property” is also reassuring. But hearing his friends say how he finally hit it big and how I’m “hot” (four times and counting) is pathetically comforting. If I wasn’t so insecure, it might cause me to become a diva. Oh wait, too late.

Orgasms: 'Nuf said.

The problem with most miserable chicas these days is that they misplace their anxiety and indulgences. There are perks and snags to every side of every situation, and we should just take them at face value. I could get caught up in all this crap and become a puppy-love bimbo, but existential romance is far more practical at this point in my life. Fun without the heartbreak. Is that even allowed anymore?
