despair.com

I have been hanging out on despair.com a bit more than is healthy.  I am lame and have no life, so this is what I do.  This place is great if you haven’t been there.  Don’t be all “Oh, I have seen those posters.  They are funny.”  Whatev!  Go there and actually read the damn things.  They are addictive and amazing.

Being a huge pessimist is my thing.  I sort of felt like a duck to water when I went there.  I have a good reason for being so pessimistic though.  So, if I am overly optimistic and something bad happens, then I get all bummed.  However, if I am pessimistic and something good happens, I am in a good mood.  If something bad happens, that’s cool.  I was expecting it.

The guy who started the “pessimistic movement” has a good book.  I have been reading some of the excerpts from his book and a lot of the stuff he says makes perfect sense.  I think I might actually buy the thing and see what is all has to say.  Not that I am all into business books, but this one and The Peter Principle might be pretty good.  Oh, I guess I am guilty of reading Who Moved My Cheese?.

This site also sells a whole bunch of cool shirts and stuff.  I was thinking about getting rid of all my clothes and go for a “pessimistic only” wardrobe.  Everything would need to be black.  Maybe just shirts with pictures of babies frowning or something like that.  They also sell candy and mugs.  I could just eat nothing but the pessimistic candy, because, lets face it, I will be alone and it won’t matter if I am fat.  Perhaps I could use the mug to put liquor in so I can drown out my loneliness.

Speaking of being pessimistic, my friend has a date tonight and I am sort of sad/mad/jealous about that.  I want a date.  Not even a date, but just another male to go out with where we are both thinking about sex.  Boo!  I’m cranky now!

I’m also cranky because the person who assigns referrals thinks it funny to give me three at a time after I told her a long time that I don’t respond well to that.  Grrr!  That’s ok.  I have my evaluation at the end of the month and the boss people are going to hear about how I am tired of her behavior around the office.
