Quick vent

Can't write much as my computer at home is goofy and am writing while on a break at work. However, it has come to my attention that a person who has been "missing due to computer problems" from a board I haunt has actually been back for a while, under a different screenname. I guess I find this very rude and sneaky, as this person has been rather rude under that new screenname and didn't tell people who she was, especially since many were concerned about her absence and frequently asked if anyone had heard from her. I know, it's the Internet and people can pretend to be who and what they want. On many of my boars, though, we are a closeknit group of people who have "known" each other for years and these things are hurtful.

I find the whole thing very interesting, coming from someone who tended to have a holier-than-thou attitude and who could do no wrong.

Random vent

If I like something, it's because I like it not because everybody else likes it and I want to fit in. I know, it's not "cool" to like anything that is generic, easy to find, or popular. I'm convinced that there are many out there who instantly dislike certain things in life simply because the majority of people like them. I know this is no big news to anyone, but it's irritating yet comical at the same time. So, for the record:

1. I like Starbucks
2. I liked "Friends" for most of the years it was on TV
3. I like football
4. I like Harry Potter
5. I like Lord of the Rings, both the book and the movies
6. I'm a girl and sometimes like to wear pink, sometimes like to wear a skirt
7. I like Stephen King
8. I like "The Simpsons"
9. I like the "Pirates of the Caribbean" movies
10. I like for my hair to look attractive if possible (possible is debatable, but I like to try without wearing caked-on makeup or overdone hair)
11. I like "CSI"
12. I like studying the American Civil War
13. I like Metallica, pre- and post-Black Album
14. I like buying baby stuff, as long as it's not for my baby, which doesn't exist
15. I like living in America, even with all our problems and faults

There, that feels better.
