I have decided that I don't really dislike conservative view points... I just hate conservative attitudes...

How do such hateful and judgmental people live in our world... =\

I had an argument about ultra conservatives and ultra liberals. And though I dislike both-- I said that ultra conservatives bother me more than ultra liberals. They're negative, disrespectful, greedy and fight the system instead of trying things out to see if it will work or not. I mean, come on, the worst way to fail is not to try at all. But pushing people backward also bugs the bananas out of me.

Greed said though, that he hated ultra liberals more. That he would rather pick someone who has an ideal that doesn't work than to reject all other responsibilities without any plan. Though... I think that extreme conservatives ideals are more harmful than not having a plan... but that's just my opinion. Government shutdown people? Like... HOW DID THAT HELP ANYTHING.

I guess, if this was my engineering team, I'd rather have someone who barely got any work done, over someone who was vehement in doing things so that my projects would go backward. Not only is it bad for him, it's also bad for the team. It affects the whole team.

Though... ideally, everyone just trys, even if they don't agree.

Just saying.....

I think back a lot about my past and about the things that didn't work out. I am fortunate in that I only ever had a first love, and a last love. So there isn't a lot of sharing when it comes to secret places in my heart.

And to be true, I don't have any feelings for anyone other than Greed. Not even Pride.

Easy enough, I think, since he was emotionally abusive and I was the one at the time that didn't want to let it go. But for all the tears, depression, mutual anguish from being used by each other... there was only one thing in our relationship that I really regretted.

And no, it was NOT the time I accidentally was seduced by his then other 'sex buddy' into a rather bizarre threesome. lol, you'll have to hunt through this page to find the rest of that story. It's a good story.

The only thing I really blame Pride for is keeping me from going to a building dedication. Continue reading →

So the other day I was talking to Greed about one of our couple friends. We had said, it seems that they buy a lot of these new things for their home all the time and yet they always appear to be hurting for money.

The item in question, a K dollar sex swing.

Not kidding.

I tried to be realistic and just shrugged, "some people spend money on things. We spend money on experiences. In the end, we spend just as much as they do"

"But they seem to need more money."

I smiled trying to be somewhat sagely and said, "Every one needs more money."

And very seriously, he said to me, "We don't need more money."

Did I mention recently how much I love this man?

Thinking about it later, I must admit that we are a double income couple. But still, considering that neither of us feel a 'need' for money must mean that we are blessed. We're already at the threshold of money in which we can afford to start buying a house. We're on track for money we said we should be earning to support kid#1. Though I am still arguing we wait till we're munnied up for kid#2.

And... actually... we could also probably buy that sex swing too. =}

Maybe I'll wait till the midlife crisis.

I just got finished watching Agents of Shield episode 1.17 ''Turn Turn Turn'.

• 1) Called it.
• 2) Semi-called it, as soon as it got to that point....
• 3) I really really really admire Joss Whedon's ability to see good opportunities for unique and often painful stories-- and then just taking them.

Wash' death for instance. It hurt so much be cause you loved him (come on, admit it everyone) and also because he's not the type of character that would die. There's a formula for that-- like Book's character, his death was sad but you kind of expect him to die. Not that I want him to die, but it doesn't surprise you.

Well... Whedon always surprises you.

And he's pretty much one of the most creative people I don't know. Really. I love his wit, his ability to see the whole story, the subtle ways he develops people and plot lines... the way he does not hesitate to take painful story twists... Uggh. That's my favorite, in a love-hate sort of way.

I think we could be friends. I think that I think like him.

I guess ever Science fiction fanatic wants to believe that you think like Joss Whedon.

Greed said to me the other week, "He seemed to get his big break on Avengers. Nothing else was really that big."

He never got into Buffy.

But it's true. Everyone seems to give Agents of Shield bad flack. Dollhouse had harsh critics there too (though I kind of sympathize with them, since it didn't really start off on the best footing). And I'm not quite sure why Firefly tanked, but that too didn't do so hot with the cool crowd.

Four shows down the line though, I'm begnning to see a pattern in Whedon's work. And while I really like that he advocates strong female leads, I can't help but think (and be a bit critical) of Skye as a 'I'm half-Echo-three-eighths-Willow-and-a-tiny-bit-Buffy'. And also, does the Bus remind any one else as a 'not as cool but still kinda fun' Serenity? Just saying.... formulas man.

Though, enough ranting-- I do like the show. I wish Whedon could just... you know... write three TV shows at once. Cause, you know that in his brain, there are a hundred of un-told stories in there.

<3

Love you Joss.

Meanwhile, becuase we're talking about the Whedonverse. Check out this article about a movie he did earlier this year.
