pride was sunday. it was a good feeling- to be there, with so many people who are not ashamed of themselves. but then it was a shameful idea to see that these people, gathered to make a point, were acting quite ridiculous. making fun of each other. displaying all of their poorest qualities, and just acting like drunk sluts. it made me think of the world. it reminded me that most people find fun in things that i do not agree with. nonetheless, it was a fun experience although it was rather hot.

after, we went to a friend's house. it was very nice, a pleasant night. i prefer spending time with people, doing nothing in particular. i like seeing people when they are not trying to put on their best face or distract you with anything. i slept a little. as i said, very nice.

sleep is interesting. everyone must think so, except for those that choose not to entertain themselves by thought. i try not to burden my mind with those people. i hate to sleep. i love nighttime, as well as day. i love to experience both completely, but lately i have been requiring more sleep than usual. multiple people have asked me if i am depressed. i dont think that i am. i think that i am just getting older and spreading my time out a lot more. but it does make me sad that i haven't seen a sunrise in over a month, nor have i paused to view the sunset. orange, vibrant.. fall is approaching, so naturally my mind drifts to nature much more often. strange. i am going to be a vegetarian.

she is my love.
