shoulda gone with my gut
almost went to the open mic that was super close to where I live, but I went instead to the one that was a bit further away, for social reasons…BIG mistake…if insulting me is your idea of humor, then I need to look “humor” up in the dictionary…I CAN be an asshole (like everybody) but in General I’m not…but to refer to me that way as part of your greeting? That seems harsh to me…and if you’re gonna suggest I grow a thicker skin, I would say “Why the f**k should I? So you can make “jokes” at my expense?” And then you have the balls to say to me “Aren’t ya gonna back me up?” This was a Musician dissing me, and a not so talented one IMO, not that THAT should make any difference…So I DID go to the O.M. that was super close…and had a fair amount of fun, playing the Blues–you can almost never go wrong with that…I may have found a new Tuesday evening hang out…
digressing a bit, I myself have resorted to insult humor in a useless attempt to defend myself; a bad idea, I know that now…I’ve said it WAY too much at this point, but…Humans are a Mystery to me…how is it that someone I don’t like is liked by others? Or that someone I DO like can be disliked by someone else that I like? Or I can like someone until I start feeling as though they DON’T like me? And of course I DEMAND (as should we all) the right to change my mind about someone…Am I the only one struggling with these questions? I doubt it…enuff already, as far as I can tell, Life is Good…and for that I’m grateful…
