Hearts

Ok, for non-favorites: I have still been updating every day, I’ve just been writing mostly favorites only entries because I’m too embarrassed to expose my whining entries to the public. At any rate, I’ve decided that those entries were rather counterproductive so I’m going to opt for going public again for now and filling out impersonal surveys instead.
 
And the impersonal surveys start with one I found on Erin’s diary called “the deck of cards survey” with a question for each card, which I will divide up into sections for me to do each day, because I’m lazy like that. And, appropriately enough, we start with
 
HEARTS (love and friendship)

2: Are you happy about something today?  Yes, I have a week off from school in what has been my busiest semester yet (mostly because of “groupwork” which can be translated into “making me much less efficient”) and it’s much needed.

3: What about it makes you so happy (or unhappy)?  It gives me a chance to relax, read a bit, and catch up on my Netflix movies (watched A Prairie Home Companion tonight, I enjoyed it)

4: When was the last time you went out with friends?  Um, well, I go out with Kyle a fair amount, so if he counts as “friends” then sometime earlier this week. Though if I take the question in its true plural from, then, it’s been a while . . . I went out with Kyle and Lana about a month ago to a Steak –n- Shake. Ok, so, yeah, I do need to get out more.

5: When did you last spend time with your family?  About 5 minutes ago, I suppose.

6: When was the last time you went on a genuine date?  Um, never? How exactly do you define a date? I guess going around downtown with Heather would come the closest, but I’m not sure that should really count. Can you go on a date with someone you’re already in an established relationship with? At any rate, I have all sorts of issues with how traditional dating goes – the whole idea of basically paying someone to spend time with you makes me uncomfortable. I can buy a prostitute much easier if that’s what I want.

7: When was the last time you kissed someone?  August 12th, the night before I left California.

8: When was the last time you had sex?  Um, I think I’ve covered this topic enough recently that an answer shouldn’t be necessary.

9: When was the last time you told someone you loved them?  When I talked to my mother on Yahoo messenger. Yes, I talk to my mother on Yahoo messenger. Psh. It’s free!

10: Have you ever been in love?  Ok, so maybe this wasn’t exactly the survey I should have picked. And, yeah.

J: Who knows more about you than anyone else?  Heather.

Q: Who in your family are you closest to?  Definitely my mother. I’m not close to my father. I think I have issues with men, anyway (which is problematic when you are a man).

K: Who is your closest friend?  It’s really Heather, but just to shake things up a little bit I’ll say Kyle and categorize Heather somewhere else.

A: Who do you love, more than anyone?  Ok, sorry, I have to say Heather for this one.
 
And with this we end part 1 of the deck of cards survey! Come back the next 3 days as I cover diamonds, spades, and puppy toes!
 
Yeah, I really don’t expect/recommend anyone to read these, but they’ll be here if you just need your fill of Matt or whatever.

Of course you can go on a date with someone you’re in a relationship with.

Hi Matt, I just came to see how you’re doing… wasn’t really expecting an entry. For some reason I thought of you and I hope you’re enjoying your time off from school.

I don’t date, either.

And I think surveys should be considered cheating for this NoJoMo.

^I agree, I think surveys are cheating too.

I suspect Kyle knows you better than you think. It’s a funny thing – I could – and practically have, in a couple of cases – tell someone online my entire life story, and I’m still floored by how little they really know, compared to someone you live with and never talk to and who once in a while when you’re at work quietly does your laundry for you.
