Friends, here’s a question:
do you do “different kinds of things” on facebook, and with your smart phone,
than elsewhere, so to speak?
I ask because:
1. I have a way I am, in life.
2. on facebook, I am, uh, DIFFERENT. I act out, act up, the whole thing’s kinda a rampant shit-show of garbage, etc.
that’s NOT how I am in REAL LIFE.
in REAL LIFE, I um, listen to music, even read, think without reacting, etc… sometimes I even drive, interact, and make music.
point being:
the “stuff I do on facebook” is NOT really part of real life…
I have always felt that if I had a smart phone, this “facebook lowlife stuff” would mix into my real life in such a way as to ELIMINATE the boundaries between them.
and friends: as ah ADHDer, that’s the LAST thing I want or need.
as I see people on their smart phones in their cars, stopped at intersections… I just think:
“dammit, people. don’t you have anything BETTER to do than this
nonsense jive-ass TEXTING and FACEBOOK CRAP?” (given, I don’t “really” know WHAT they’re doing, true.)
that’s why I ask:
do you do
“different” things with/on facebook/twitter/texting?
has it flooded into “real” life so much that they are not distinguishable?
do you even notice?
do you care?
and if you are ADHD, how the hell do you function?
(not that I want one, nooooo fuckin way.)
as I’ve been saying for years now, if I have a smart phone, if I have facebook and other such things in my HAND…. I’ll never get out of bed and will therefore starve.

3. I KNOW it’s a YODA thing:) Star Wars Episode V: The Empire Strikes Back, act II, when Luke first meets Yoda and the latter admonishes him, saying
“This one, a long time have I watched. All his life, as he looked away to the future, to the horizon… NEVER, his mind on Where. he Was… HM? ? what he was DOING… Hm!.”
hey, here’s why WOMEN, AFRICAN MUSIC and MINIMALISM are tagged in this:
1. being present in the moment, in a relationship, is probably good, and I’m a guy.
2. African Drumming, and Minimalism, particularly in the case of Steve Reich’s music, are all about being in the moment.
I feel like I am a BEAST
I feel like I am a BEAST, and that sometimes I act more like one than others, and on still others I act VERY serious and focused, i.e, like a beast.

see? self-mockery, it’s the way of kings.
not getting around to things you really want…
if there are
1. some things I do that basically OTHER PEOPLE arrange, and I merely have to GO to…
2. and other things which would happen if “I” succeeded in arranging and organizing them…
then why is it that so often, the latter are things I never GET to until um, years later than I need to…

if you think you don’t have power, guess what:

I really need some kinda manager or agent or life coach or somethin…
just the RIGHT KIND, not someone whom I feel judged by, not someone who is communicating in a way that I don’t understand, that overwhelms me, that triggers me, someone who is encouraging in a way that just WORKS with me.
“Nothing anyone does or says can hurt me”
Thought of the Day, 7 23 2015
Nothing anyone does or says can hurt me, even if they are people who are/were really close to me who’s approval and love I really needed or wanted.
trying to tell ourselves this, yes.
after all…
I’m Me, not them, and in the end, what they do or say has nothing do with my rights to happiness and such, my worth.
shopping for it’s own sake= not too great
shopping for it’s own sake, even if buying things you do like and will use…. to excess… seems some kinda empty thing… not to mention materialist. NOT SUBSTANTIVE.
something else will be more fulfilling.
