Circumlocution

I will mainly be venting, so prepare yourself for not so nice words. I never liked to listen to my Mom when she said "If you don't have anything nice to say, don't say it at all." So what do I have to vent about? I am so sick and tired of people using circumlocution, or in other words, using every other word and phrase to disguise what they really want to say. It's most often used in the context of persuasive speech, mainly by politicians, a.k.a liars. JUST SAY WHAT YOU WANT TO SAY. SAY HOW YOU FEEL. AND SAY IT TO MY FACE. In my dream world, for just one day, everyone would say exactly how they feel to everyone about everything. Every one would hate each other for two days, talk it out, fight it out, whatever, and get over it. That, my friends, is how world piece is achieved. Growing up, I was a jock and hung out with the cool kids, but I also got picked on for being nerdy. I got picked on because I wasn't afraid to be nerdy and a jock at the same time. I got picked on because even if I was friends with the cool kids, I wasn't going to pretend to like what they liked or do what they do just to seem one way or the other. And now, as an adult, I feel even stronger about that. I really don't give a crap who you are. If I have a problem with you, or if I feel a certain way about something, I refuse to say anything other than that. I'm going to tell you exactly how I feel, and nothing more or less. Just the same, I expect you to be the same way with me. I don't care if you're going to piss me off. I just want you to be real. So yeah, that's what I have to say, and now that I've vented, I can take a deep breath and keep on trekking forward.

On another note, my husband was supposed to be back on the FOB two days ago, and I haven't heard from him. From the sounds of it, I think it has started snowing on the FOB, which means any schedules between now and when it stops snowing will inevitably be delayed. This is why I'm venting to my blog, and not him. Sorry :)

Oh, and I'm on steroids for my bronchitis. Every time I take them, I get the "roid rage" which makes me a combination of irritable and anal about cleanliness and organization. So, sorry again.
