Why do some people lack a conscience

Why do some people not seem to care how they treat other people? This is something that has always befuddled me. We have all hurt someone at one time or another , but for the most part we feel remorse, apologize and make amends. There is always a few who never understand what they have done is wrong ( or so it seems). They believe they are perfect and that there is no possible way they could have ever done anything wrong. More times than not they turn the issue around and tend to blame other people for their behavior. They never accept responsibility for what they have done. Or they claim you have misunderstood the whole situation. These type of people can be very frustrating particularly when you have to see them at least five days out of the week. I hate when they try to talk and joke with you as though nothing ever happened. Recently, this sort of behaviro from a particular individual really threw me for a loop. I could not believe he would come up to me (and he only this when I am with a group of people because he knows I won’t be uncivil to him in front of other people) and talk to me as though nothing ill had ever transpired between us especially after the harsh words I had with him a few days before. He has not done this once, but three times in the past month. What I don’t understand is why? Why can’t he just leave me alone? I pretty much ignore him when he tries to talk to me and I know the other people that I am with can feel the tension, so why can’t he? Is he just stupid? Does he really miss me? Or is he just pissed off because he means nothing to me now and he likes torturing me by trying to talk to me? Is this his way of saying he is sorry? How I wish people were easier to read. I get so tired of the whole thing.

Round and Round -

The spinning globe goes, where it stops, nobody knows! OK, I want to travel outside of the country within the next year for a little RR. I know I want to go to England or Scottland and spend the night in a haunted castle, I have also thought of going to Africa on safari. I could see my geek self in one of those safari hats looking like a tourist! I have thought about Japan, my father travelled there when he was in the military and he told me it was one of the most beautiful places in the world. So where should Caustic go? A haunted castle somewhere is Europe, a safari in Africa (where I will prolly get eaten by a lion!), a beautiful get away in Japan or any other place you can think of to visit (excluding Mexico, (DV) I have plans to go there in the winter). So, where, where shall I go? :)

Is

It normal that a grown man over the age of 30 still reads comic books? Or is it creepy?

Is it just me….

Or is the Olympics plagued with all sorts of scandels and upsets this time around? I don’t ever watch the Olympics because sports in general bore me (at least watching them), but every time I pull up Yahoo there is a story about the Olympics and most are either rife with scandel, upsets or poor sportsmanship. Blah!

Truth

The truth is rarely kind, or so it seems. I think one of the reasons that we tend to hide from the truth is because for the most part the “truth” is sad. It is easier to see the truth in a situation other than our own. It is easier for us to point out the truth, if the truth has nothing to do with us or will not hurt us in any way. When one finally confronts the truth, one knows that one knew this ugly truth all along. We live a lie to avoid the truth. We tell ourselves things contrary to what we know are true. We want to believe in something better, something not quite as sad or as painful as the truth. I confronted an ugly truth over the weekend, actually last Friday night. At first I was relieved, but now I am sad.

The bitterest tears shed are for words left unsaid and deeds left undone.

I was Being Rebellious! :)

I was so tired of everyone telling me I should not cut my hair (my hair was quite long) so I had it cut over the weekend!! I was listening to everyone and everyone was saying, ” you should keep your hair long, you look so pretty with long hair.” The thing is these people did not know what I looked like with short hair because I have never worn my hair short. I had my hair cut in a cute bob that goes just above my shoulders and the compliments I received this week have been wonderful. I think I may just keep my hair this length as when it is long it takes so much time to fix each day.

Do you care @ 6am?

It is rarely what you know, but who you know that matters.

Sometimes there isn’t a purpose, know when to stop.

I am tired of being angry, can’t you stop being an a$$ now?

Only you would wonder about something like that….

I forgot the birthday of a friend. (I SUCK!)

You think everyone likes you, only if you knew. ;)

He is crazy, obsessive and annoying, please remind me again why you are engaged to him?

Men, say what you mean and mean what you say.

You never know someone until you know them.

You tell me one thing and then another and then you deny you told me the first thing. Um, I was born at night, just not last night.

You are like a fly in a glass of water.

Sometimes you just don’t want to see someone.

Back and forth, back and forth, don’t you get tired?

This was supposed to be fun.

Insincerity

If you (and you know who you are) don’t feel as though you did anything wrong, then why on GOD’s green Earth did you apologize? Insincere apologies are a slap in the face, save the BS next time and keep your trap shut.

Neanderthal v. Us: Who Wins All-Time Olympics?
Olympic athletes may benefit from today’s sports drinks and high-tech training, but their gymnastics or wrestling performance probably pales in comparison to what early human ancestors could have pulled off.

Religion, do you know yours?

I am going to touch on this subject briefly this morning as I don’t have a lot of time. I am always thoroughly amazed at the fact that a lot of people don’t really know what their religion is all about. There are some who don’t have the slightest idea what they are doing or why and it always amazes me. To give a little background, I was raised Baptist, but I attended a Catholic school. I always joke that the reason I am so messed up is because I was taught one thing during the week at school and quite another on the weekend at Sunday school. The Catholic and Baptist religions are both considered Christian religions, but they are very different. It is like saying a Honda civic and a Lexus are both cars, but if compared side by side they are very different. I have a firend who is Catholic and when we discuss religion she is totally clueless as to what her religion teaches, but she is very serious about her religion. I don’t have time to go into details, but this is my question:
If you are serious about your religion, why wouldn’t you take the time to study the religion so that you fully understand what it is all about?

Easy On The Eyes - Wentworth Miller

Wentworth Miller was born in England but raised in Brooklyn, New York. Miller began his career on the other side of the camera, but it wasn’t long before he started acting. He has acted in movies such as The Human Stain and Underworld and joined the cast of Prison break, a television series. His eyes and hands say it all, he is HOT! Wentworth Miller is most definately easy on the eyes!

What is this thing?

Have you ever….

Been so angry that you could not speak?

Insomnia Rules….

I can’t sleep so I must write about how much I suck at the game: Guitar Hero. Oh lawd, I purchased this game (4 of them) at Christmas for my nephew and the guitar controller. I think when all was done and said I spent over $300 dollars on this alone. I am still mad at how much those games cost for that stupid game. Anyway, my nephew takes to the game like a fish to water, I on the other hand, ha ha ha, I couldn’t play at all. I totally suck. My Mother tried the game and played better than me. I felt really stupid, but oh well. Of course my nephew thought it was the funniest thing on this green Earth that my Mom played better than me. :P We will see how much he is laughing when I don’t buy him anymore games. Ok, that is a lie, I buy him games all the time. I think I might spoil him a tad much. Speaking of being spoiled, he has a TV, cable, computer (I have aol controls on it for internet, eeekkk no fun for him muhahahahaha), and two game consoles and let’s not forget the dvd player. And he says to me (on a near constant basis), “I am bored.” Hello! I do make him go outside and play, actually I don’t have to make him he likes to go and hang out with his friends, go swimming etc. it just amazes me that he could actually be bored. :)

Is This Mic Live?

*OUCH*

I have this very ill Habit….

of not answering my phone when someone calls, I usually let it go to voicemail. If they don’t leave a voicemail then I assume it must not have been that important. Some of my friends get mad and say, “I know you are ignoring me, why don’t you just answer your phone?!” my response, “because I did not want to answer my phone.” :) I don’t understand why people get so upset, I never get upset when they don’t answer their phones.

Dark Knight

I saw the Dark Knight last night and I have to say that I actually liked the movie and I usually hate comic book hero type movies. It is not surprising that it is breaking all sorts of records at the box office and has made more than 300 million dollars in 10 days. If you haven’t seen this movie you should check it out.
