nf: like there's some things that at some unnoticed point in time become
yourself and there's no way to get rid of them. i am finally recognizing that while
planning ahead is mostly a source of unhappiness, i cannot really do anything about it even if i wanted and i'm stuck with it.
career-wise, i'm not leaving my current job for other experiences because i'm exceedingly rational and i
know that if i stick with my position and work hard for about 13 years then i'll reach high places. nevermind that probably if i decided to pursue further education now instead of in the year 2009 (which is when my sabbatical comes) the quality of my 2006 to 2009 papers would be improved. nevermind that i kind of wanted to have a completely different experience in a completely different line of work for a while, but it's not convenient for my career so fuck it. nevermind that maybe i'm doing everything quite wrong, nevermind.
relationships-wise, i can't even understand the meaning of
joy between man and woman anymore. i'm sort of unable to let fly (and no, i'm not speaking sexually, notably because there's no sex to speak of) if i'm not
positive that something might work in the long run. so people get scared to death and there's no long run. wow, way to achieve a goal.
i have a faint impression that someone may come in my life to turn that specific part upside down, but then again i would never trust anyone enough to let him do that. as nomeansno used to say:
all in a word: stuck. fuck.
