Skanky Ladies

I've just been wondering something lately... what is it about lesbians that they have to move so quickly in relationships? Or it could just be my whole entire generation that's in a huge hurry, and everyone, not just lesbians, have their relationships in fast forward. I'm starting to think I'm the only one with this crazy notion still stuck in my head; the notion that people should get to know each other before sexual advances are made, but you know there may be a few people out there that still hold some of these ideals close to their heart.

I just can't get into the whole idea of going on a first date getting to know a few monetary details about someone, then deciding to go on a second date where you hear a few more details about who that person is, find out a little bit of their past, and then discuss much of their sexual history. Once you've gotten through these first two dates and you've gotten the "getting to know you stage" out of the way, (because after two dates you obviously know so much about this person) and it's now time for the "sex date." On this date you've got a little more of a chance to get to know this person but really it's all going to end up in the bedroom in the end, so the conversation I would assume is all leaning in that direction (sex! sex! sex!) Then finally you get to the "yes! yes! yes!" part, I guess.

Call me old fashioned & I guess anti-queer culture, but I still think that sex is something special that should be reserved for two people that are madly in love with each other. It's definitely not something that should be casual & definitely not something to be experienced with someone you barely know.

Sick Ice Cream

I'm sick today and my boss wasn't so happy about me calling in sick. I was so upset that I couldn't go teach my class today. I love those kids! They are definitely the most amazing kids in the world! I suppose last night's late night ice cream could have something to do with me being sick. It could just have been the little bit I needed to push me over the edge from healthy to unwell. But I can't say that if I knew it was going to make me sick that I still wouldn't have gone to get it. I'm having a somewhat horrible week and I NEEDED that ice cream to keep me from a mental breakdown.
