Unfinished Sympathy...

I'm a passive aggressive sleep deprived occasional social butterfly and yes I do speak fluent sarcasm.

Tonight I was hit with a hand full of eggs and huge rock on my back and called “Nigger” by a white guy in the backseat of a dark blue truck as I was riding my bike on Westheimer and Jeanetta. They drove too fast for me to get the license plate number. I had to get a cop to drive me home. This night makes me wonder how blacks did it back in the day, and why the community is looking the way it is now. I am trying not to cry, but I am in physical pain from the rock and not understanding why I deserved this.

uugh

The Ancestors weep.

what would you do if the person you loved died right in front of you? what if for that split second, you really thought they were dead? what would you do?

I remain forever pressed that these two never got it on…. really show really?

I’m okay with Damon and Elena…

(really because I’m just tired of them being forced down my throat), but just not at the expense of my side characters. The throwing away of show mythology and character development this season to justify the pairing (and the originals existence) is just ridic. Haven’t watched like the last 2 or 3 episodes and the show still manages to piss me off because I know how good it can be. All the progress the show made in season 1 and early season 2 has just gone completely down the drain…
