The purpose of this blog is to say the stuff that people don't say.  Things that either seem so OBVIOUS, like that I'm fat, I disfigure myself, I occasionally, sometimes daily, yell at my son, or that Portland Police Suck.  And my intention is to stay completely anonymous, which I guess means I won't be saying, Hey, read my blog!  But I am certain anyone who would find it interesting would have to be in themselves pretty interesting, regardless of appearances.  See how arrogant that sounded?  But guess what.  I think that.  Usually I don't admit it, and I'd wager many people don't. 

Once in my first year of college, I was in an intro psych class, and the teacher asked us to anonymously write down 5 words to describe ourselves.  Then we were asked to do the same regarding "other people."  Invariably people held a much higher opinion of themselves than of others.  (Of course, the depressed girl in the back didn't admit that she was the opposite, cuz she felt stupid saying so.  Which is too bad, because she would have realized that she was NOT the only one.)  And yet people who go around saying it out loud are quickly run out of town.

By the way, I'm feeling very smug about this piece of writing, but I'm also stoned right now.  So, my perceptions may be way off. 

I'll tell you tomorrow how my opinion compares when straight.  However, that might not last long as I find myself intolerably boring when straight. 

Oh goll, I just got an optical migraine; gotta go.  Screen's disappearing.  I love these things!
