If one was to read through this blog and assign categories to each entry: the top category would be coffee, followed by driving with fall coming up a close third.  I’m truly addicted to coffee. It’s the smell, the taste, the warmth…It’s not the caffeine (so much) for after my morning cup(s) I tend to switch over to decaf. It’s the little pleasures that help shape a day. Focusing on one or two small things that make you happy can alter your perspective completely.

That being said…a couple of people have alleged that I have a cynical disposition towards people and I can be somewhat harsh. I created a facebook status that dealt with that matter fairly efficiently I like to think:

“I don’t hate everyone. I don’t consider myself to be cynical. However, I do value my time and choose not to associate with those that I feel waste it. The fact that number is high doesn’t mean anything.”

I believe people are too focused with being polite in the same way that people have gotten more cowardly and self-absorbed. On the opposite end of the spectrum you have the line between being honest and cruel. After having experienced both it would be pleasant to find balance. I’m tired of the ignorance and apathy that are prevalent in society these days. Yes, I’m making a generalization, I realize not all people are this way etc.

I think I’m tired of the whimsical, lackadaisical attitudes that exist from people the most. Have a spine, develop some character. I want to know where I stand with people and where people stand in and of themselves. Tired of people twisting and manipulating situations simply to suit their own devices.

…and now that I’ve gotten that verbose rant out of my system. I do believe I shall relax…maybe hit up Barns & Noble and find myself a book to settle down with.
