Compensation Anxiety

An idea I have recently shortly discussed with a friend of mine. She doesn't believe a word of it, but as long as I do it stands.

Short men are insecure, insecureness effects compensation anxiety, this causes them to be better lovers.

It's really simple. A short man thinks as follows
  • I'm not tall ergo I'm not fysically attractive
  • I'm not rich ergo I'm not financially attractive
  • I want this girl/woman/boy/man so I must give her/him something no one else will: empathy=> consideration=> attentive love-making
The compensation anxiety may also hold true for men with other unattractive features but in my experience most men aren't bothered with their beer bellies, sweaty feet, baldness, crooked teeth, coarse skin, foul breath or bitten on fingernails. Do correct me.

Quote #10

By lack of a more fitting quote on birthdays, I give thee:


One must still have chaos in oneself to give birth to a dancing star.

Friedrich Nietzsche, Thus Spoke Zarathustra,
German philosopher (1844 - 1900)

I've gotten the first gift. The first birthday card. And the first gift voucher. I've checked with the bank and my paycheck has arrived. All I await now is a phonecall from Mr. Way-Out-Of-My-League to wish me happy birthday and profess his deep and unchanging love for me (as if).

Edit: Add in another gift voucher, another gift, 4 text messages, 4 forum congrats and 1 comment. Have I mentioned liking you lot?

SMILE

Upon professing having smiled at a waiter it is suggested the man be tipped extra. After announcing smiling at a man in need of encouragement, the wish to have seen my smile is made known. Continually my mother mocks my frowns with 'You are so much more beautiful when you smile'. My laughs are checked by my sisters unbearance of them.

Question: Do I really smile that little?

This is what I'm wearing


Mine is blue: Cute but kind of evil.

Let the computer decide who I really am

I can't seem to help it, by lack of a real subject to blog about, I do five on-line personality tests per day. This is what picking the colour green above any other tells about me:

Green is the color of healing.

Green personalities want to help every one. These people can usually be found in the medical profession or some occupation which helps people. Preferring to watch rather than to become involved in others business, they usually keep their thoughts secret. Others see them as good listeners because of this quality. This characteristic makes them wonderful counselors.

Green personalities make others feel at home in their house by putting them at ease immediately. They try to take care of others and they want harmony in every one's life. Green personalities may even stop an argument between others by starting one themselves. Green personalities make the best of friends because they are jovial, caring and can keep a secret.

In order for a green personality to feel good about themselves, they have to be helping someone or something. Nurturers by choice, they are the ones who take care of animals, humans and plants

Quote #9

I do not concurr mister Barrie. If love has a rainbow it is seven shades of grey.

Let no one who loves be unhappy, even love unreturned has its rainbow.

James M. Barrie, Scottish dramatist & novelist (1860 - 1937)

Invitations II

You have three days left to make your attendance to THE Three Ton Baclava Party known, if you should show up, you will not be provided with wholesome food but will have to make do with leftover cake and the drinks you bring yourselves. Can't say I didn't warn you.

Where are my friends?

Abroad apparently. Or decorating their apartments, quarreling with their loved ones, at home and at ease, all blissfully unaware of how I struggle to keep up the appearance of happiness.

That was perhaps not the wisest thing to say but i cannot pretend 24/7. And a little rant is always better than staying in bed, refusing refreshments or books and cry over every little speck of misfortune. I am after all not that miserable; I have just improved my 3D pinball record.

Parenthood I

As the want for offspring defines itself clearer and clearer in my life, I'm trying to find out how well I'd do having to cater for six little brats and their father while cleaning up their mess and not letting go of my own life. The result of this test cannot but fill me with dispair what would a computer program know about my parental skills?


You Will Be a Cool Parent
You seem to naturally know a lot about parenting, and you know what kids need.You can tell when it's time to let kids off the hook, and when it's time to lay down the law.While your parenting is modern and hip, it's not over the top.You know that there's nothing cool about a parent who acts like a teenager... or a drill sergeant!

Plint Party

I wonder what keeps me from entering the catering bussiness? Just for the heck of it I'm having a little house warming party tomorrow. And if you read this, you are invited.

We will be having stir-fried fish with mediterranean herbs and a carrot-potatoe oven casserole. Bring your own wine though, I'd love the provide the spirits but alas I am temporarily out of funds.

And now I'm off to grab some lunch and put up posters.

Too ill.

Usually after not having studied I blog about how well the exam went and how I am never going to study again. Not so today.

For three consecutive days I've had a very painful sore throat, as this temporary discomfort diminishes however the headache and feverish complexion appear at the health horizon. These are severe symptoms for a selfprofessed only ill once every two years.

Right now however I got up to tell my professors I'm to ill to think properly let alone study and take exams ( how do do oral exams when your voice is on strike anyway???). And after that I'll get back to bed not leaving until tomorrow 5pm safe to get myself mre hot tea and lavatory escapades.

Do not bother me unless to force a mug of something steaming hot and healthy in my hands.

Invitations

38 invitations have been sent out. Not counting my housemates.

Should they all come I have a problem. A space, time, food, money problem. However ( as has been cleverly pointed out by an invité who happens to have just read his invitations in pretty much the same room as I am in now and has asked for the menu prior to his consent which of course I have refused for it is only proper that everyone waits his/her turn) hardly ever does everyone you invite show up.

Conclusion I'm catering for about 12 people. Everybody else will have to stuff themselves with cake.

P.S. The full menu will be published one week prior to the festivities, I expect all rsvp's by then.

Quote #8

September tries its best to have us forget summer.

Bern Williams

Pizza Style

Meatball Pizza
Unusual and uncompromising.You're usually the first to discover a new trend.You appreciate a good meal and good company.You're an interesting blend of traditional and modern.

September

Finally my favourite month has commenced (I love use the word commenced, sound so much more educated than 'started'). That is good news because A] in mere hours I will no longer be responsible for the watering of plants, cleaning of floors, emptying of mailbox and feeding of chickens, a pig, a guinee pig, two cats, a pondful of goldfish and a younger sister (the latter especialy is prone to complain about quality and quantity of the dish provided), in mere hours my parents will be back from a weeklong trip to the heart of Germany (the geographical heart that is), God knows what they were looking for there. B] The day my paycheck arrives draws near. C] It's my birthday soon.

And best of all D] Autumn is on it's way. I love autumn.
