I had a really good blog I was gonna do, that I'll probably save for later because this crap is bothering the hell out of me. Why do people lie? Seriously, what do you gain from lying? It's just a whole lot of work, what with the remembering all of them and keeping them straight. Once you tell that first lie, it's very hard to stop. You have to supplement that lie with another, and that one with another, until you inadvertently strangle yourself in the web that you spun. Oh yes, strangulation is inevitable. What goes around comes around.

Now this has nothing really to do with me but I hate seeing this stuff happen to people I care about. Over and over and over again. I suppose I should be angry at him for allowing her to do it but he's so optimistic, always trying to see the good in people, when clearly, that girl doesn't have any. What happened was this: since about 2006, these 2 people were supposed to meet up. Now, everytime this was supposed to happen, some ridiculous out of this world thing happens that stops it from doing so. Fine. Whatever. This was before I knew either of them. But I'll be damned if I'm in the picture and watch idly as she does it again. Last summer, we waited 3 months for her to go from Michigan to Virginia. How the fuck does that happen? Seriously. But wait, apparently she was all up and down VA but couldn't find the time to see someone she claims to care so much about? Claims to LOVE? That's mind boggling. IV real. I want someone to explain that to me.
How can you "love" someone, claim you care so much for them, and then can't even come see them? How much disaster (fictional or not) can you inflict on yourself to justify your not being there? If you love someone there's not a thing in this world that should stop you.
Man, wtf. The latest episode in this drama is she claimed to have bought a ticket for a flight that doesn't exist that's leaving at a quarter past never and thinks that's okay. He took time off work because I think he hoped she'd live up to her word this time. Honestly I was hoping she did too. But to do it again, and waste some innocent persons' time is unnacceptable. Lo and behold the time to go to the airport comes and the flight is "canceled". I really do believe she believes half, if not everything she says though. I mean, everyone knows, if you say it, think it, wish it hard enough; it'll be true. God, I'm all over the place this nonsense is messing with me.
And here I am, the one that will have to deal with the disappointment and mend the wounds. And to think, I let him go so he can inflict this on himself. I shoud have known better.
