I'm watching Season 1, Episode 1 of Star Trek.  I think there were several different attempts at the Star Trek story while on TV.  This one stars William Shatner.  Maybe that narrows it down for some of you.  Whatever the series, it is very old and funny... slightly ridiculous and yet, I can not stop watching.  What is happening?  What is causing all the people to die?  Why do they need salt tablets?  Why are there red dots on the victims faces?  Stay tuned.  I'll let you know what I think.  Oh, one more thing.  All the men on Enterprise wear belly shirts with really high pants.  The women wear pieces of clothing that are really too long to be a shirts, but too short to be a dresses.  They all wear panty hose with their "dresses" so I guess that makes it appropriate.  Tonight is just a relaxing night.  I'm hanging out with Jacob.  He made us delicious nachos and we are chilling because work week starts tomorrow.  Summer is just around the corner!  We're very excited.  I also cleaned and packed a little after work today because I'm moving soon!  Holla!

long time, no blog

Perspective: • true understanding of the relative importance of things; a sense of proportion.

People can see or hear the same thing, but experience completely different "realities".  Have you ever heard some one tell a story and in the next moment someone else retells the same story only to hear that their interpretation was completely different from your own?  We hear different things because certain things are important to each of us that may not be significant to others.  This is a big obstacle in effective communication.

Ladies, hear me out on this.  You know how something can bother you in the moment and it seems like the issue, but its not?  The issue only causes this small incident to seem like a big deal because you're stressed about the real issue, you know?  Well, men don't view things like this.  As far as I can tell, men isolate the problem to either fix it if possible or compartmentalize it to forget it until it can be fixed.  I do not work like that.  I can think about fifty things at once.  So if I'm stressed about something I have been known to "take it out" on those closest to me by overreacting about insignificant things.  Unfortunately this can be very frustrating to those closest to me.  I think its part of life.  It seems like one of those innate differences between men and women.
