I rant too much for some people. *happyfaces*
I want a little icon of someone, like an AIM smiley, with a big thumbs up that possibly says ++GOOD! on it, but that's because I'm basically mean, and also completely bulletproof today*. I had an awesome day (despite the weird previously-ranted shit) that culminated with espousing my philosophy of "Everybody wins and my job is to make the world a little weirder" to my mother and feeling very positive about how all that went down, though I did refrain from directly quoting XKCD to her. So today I'm pretty happy.
I'm a little annoyed and frustrated that I haven't been able to replace anger as my motivating device, but I think that will change over time (or else I'll get completely pissed off and regress to being an angry teenager and then it's all moot). That's really the biggest age-related change I've experienced (at my mighty age of 912 years in cynicism) and it's kind of disheartening, but also: I could be going bald, and I'm not. Neener neener!
I am amazingly sane according to every therapist I've ever seen. I think about that sometimes. It's kind of awesome: it means I'm not being weird because God said I should, it's because I want to be. That's a good place to be, though I would like a time machine to go smack myself up as a teenager. On the other hand, I survived high school, so I guess I don't need to. Making that self be like this self would be blood in the fucking water, believe me. I'm sort of glad we hadn't invented emo back in the dark ages when I was in high school.
* The world needs a functionality like AIM icons or LJ icons where I can just have something like that hanging around me all the time and I can change it as needed. I suppose, if you want to be technical, that would be my face, but I'm not writing ++GOOD! on my face for a one-off. I'm still waiting for Life 2.0.
