SUBJECT | Re: [NYLXS - HANGOUT] Meeting Tonight
|
You know Ron, everyone expects a lot of shit from me all the time. Let me clue you into something. A) I don't care about petty bickering. I played fairly and square with everyone and nobody gives a fuck.
B) April 1, I turned 50, which means I'm not 35 years old any more. I'm fucking tired and emotionally strained beyond belief.... you have NO idea.
No matter what I recommend, or do, nobody shows up for anything anymore. All I wanted to do was escape this place, but I'm stuck here. And I've been in my new apartment for 6 months and not a SHADOW has crossed the door to say hello, or to even have a damn cup of coffee. I take it back, Michael came. And I set this place up explicetly to handly guests for NYLXS and for meetings. Not one of you have ever shown.
Obviously I'm a collosal bust. in whatever I tried to do. And I'm way too old to do things over and over again. So fuck it.
C) I was there ready to talk to anyone who wanted to hangout and talk....YOU WEREN'T. and not just you... and this is not the first time either.
So I asked you to come and talk, everyone for that matter, and you come or not. You either consider me your friend, or have respect for me, and come down and talk, have a cup of coffee, see what might me interesting or fun.... or DON'T. but don't give me some left handed BS excuse.
On the other hand, I had a rather detailed conversation about logic circuits and Turing Machines with Chani at the Olive Tree... I still have a lot to learn, but it still is the best damn offer I got this month.
It beat the shit out of staying home and talking to the parot.
