It's been awhile. I've started a new job. It's the start of a new year.
I told myself I wouldn't let the small things annoy me but with a little help from my friend "wine" I feel compelled to spew.
Facebook: what is it about Facebook that people feel they can tell everyone how wonderful their life is and be so oblivious as to how they come across. Is it possible for one person to be SO narcissistic and wrapped up that they they don't see what a conceited asshole they sound like? I wouldn't consider myself the jealous type but come on people, your everyday comments and photos of your kid, house, car and self portraits is just too much. Get a grip. What is is it that you hope to gain by sharing all your constant minutiae?
I'm happy to post photos of my kids on vacation. I can be happy for you when good things happen to you and your family. However, I don't feel the need to tell you by the hour what I have planned for the day or how on earth am I ever going to get it all done. I also don't need to know that your kid got an A on a test. Why would you think that anyone, other than the grandparents would care?
What are you craving so badly from the world that you can't find within yourself?
So that's all the liquid courage I have for tonight.
Mañana
