That being said...

Don't tell me about what you eat. I'm not interested in your weight obsession. Don't apologize for things that you're not really sorry for or aren't going to make an effort to fix. That apology is merely rehearsed words you use to seem polite. Don't be surprised when I'm straightforward with you, you were warned. I'm surprised some of you are friends with me despite that. Don't tell me you hate something you know I love, that's just stupid and makes it look like you're trying to start shit with me.

That's all I've got for now. I'm probably just cranky from the insomnia.

My entries here seem less and less cryptic these days.
