Affection

I'm a touchy-feely person, there's no denying that. I'm a big believer in physical displays of affection. I have no problems hugging the people I love and I'm definitely a cuddler.

I'm also a very affectionate person. It's natural for me to impulsively hug one of my friends, just because I feel like it. It's my way of expressing my affection for that person. I was raised in a very affectionate households where hugs were freely given. My parents showered me with displays of affection and I pass that onto the people I love.

Maybe, it makes some people uncomfortable, but it's who I am. I try not to hug people who I know it makes uncomfrotable, but with my closest friends it comes very naturally. In fact, I have a few friends with whom I have very touchy-feely, yet totally platonic relationships.

However, while i'm a very physically affetionate person, I am not a promiscuous person. It bothers me when people decide that just because I am very open with displays of affection, I must also be a slut.

I have a few very close male frineds and yes, I'm affectionate with them. But I'm not going to sleep with any of them. They're my friends. I'm not about to sleep with Taela and she and I are very affectionate, so why would I sleep with one of my guy friends, when I'm affectionate with them?

Maybe I'm over-reacting and am just too sensitive, but this was just something that was on my mind and that was bothering me.

A little Annoyed

So, yesterday was not my best day. A little bit eerie and a lot annoying.

Let's see... There was the elevator thing. I went for my break and suddenly couldn't get back to my floor. It would stop at all the other floors, but not mine. i felt like I was in a sci-fi novel. I finally took the stairs.

After that, i left work early and went to the subway and it wasn't working. It only delayed me about 20 minutes, but it was still irritating.

Then, on my way home, I was talking to Meg and my cellphone battery died. WHich just added to my annoyance.

Stupid technology.
