On any given night around 11:30 you would be safe to assume that I am in my bed, lights out, and well on my way into my 3rd REM cycle of sleep. It's not very often that I find an activity or person that I value more than I do my sleep. I used to think that I could just sleep when I am dead, but have quickly come to the realization that that is bullshit. If I don't sleep while I am alive, I will more likely kill everyone else and sleep when they're dead.
I just can't seem to come up with anything that is more enjoyable than a full nights sleep. Waking up the next day feeling refreshed and ready to accomplish the days tasks of eating, surviving, and genuinely kicking ass. Perhaps I am just getting old, and maybe that's okay. But I don't really see the merit of hanging out at people's apartments until all hours of the night, just talking or watching movies when I could be fast asleep. Especially at people's apartments that I am not really gaining anything from, which I realize sounds super shallow and mean. But I have spent so much time spinning my wheels at girls apartments that I really don't gain a whole lot from. I mean, friends are nice and all, but I have friends. I have awesome friends. HOW MANY FRIENDS DOES A GUY NEED?
Allow me to tangent briefly, I really don't understand women's logic when it comes to friends. See, you must know that the main reason men come hang out with you is because they're looking for something. Whether that's a hookup, a relationship, whatever. But they sure as hell aren't coming over because they prefer the company of women to men. If I were to go hang out with anyone, it sure as shit wouldn't be some drama ridden girls house. I would be here watching Lord Of The Rings with Josh, Harrison, Kasey and Landon. Because men are so much nicer to hang out with. Now, this isn't to be taken in the context of homosexuality or anything like that. Sure, I would be willing to go and put forth the effort into hanging out with girls and enjoy myself. But if we are strictly speaking of friends, I one billion times infinity would rather be around my own kind.
Also before I get back on track, I just want to make something perfectly clear. If you have to tell a guy that you just want to be "Friends" you wont be friends at all. It's just not how the world turns. Obviously the only reason this person was coming around was because he was interested in you. So when you tell him off, the last thing he is going to continue doing is coming around. Unless he is an idiot. This ties into what i have aforementioned. They don't want to be friends with you. It's just.. life. So if you ever have to tell someone you want to be just friends you're better off telling them to go to hell. Because you aren't going to be friends if you have to say it. (Granted; there are exceptions to all of these things.)
Relating back to my idea of sleep. See, I would rather sleep than do most things. Regardless of what they are. On top of this, when I don't sleep well, I usually become erratic and incredibly temperamental. If I don't get at the very least 6.5 hours of sleep, I hate everyone and everything ever.
I seem to only find girls my age that are interested in traveling. They want to see the world and all that shit. Which is fine, I try to never knock someones dreams or aspirations. But what bothers me is that these young girls think that they are incredibly original in saying these things. But honestly, I know more people that want to travel than people who do not. You are horribly stereotypical by saying these things. If you wanna be original, say you wanna take long naps and get full nights rest. Possibly work at a bowling alley or something, I dunno.
Whats worse than all this, is that they are looking for someone to travel with. And my biggest problem in the dating community, is my complete disdain for travel. I don't sleep well in places that are not my own bed. hotels are probably the least conducive thing to a good nights rest that I have ever experienced. I don't want to go anywhere, because I know I won't sleep. And if I don't sleep, I won't have a good time. And if I don't have a good time, you probably won't either.
I guess what I am getting at is, sorry that I don't want to travel or can't afford to. Sorry my dad doesn't have deep pockets that will fund my lascivious trips to wherever the hell you wanna go. Sorry I have to stay home and work to bring home the bacon. But have fun on your trips. And let me know when they invent a way for my bed to travel with me, then maybe we can talk about leaving the state.
