My right big toe hurts like hell. You know when the nail...? Yeah, no need to go into details, but I'm suspecting that I'll soon be physically challenged because of it. It just hurts so bad.
Every now and then people insult me. Most of them mean no harm when they do, but sometimes I wonder if they just don't think at all when they speak. Like the time a friend told me that I "demand attention". She explained it with something like "if you enter a room you make people speak to you". I didn't know that. I don't even like people.
Or when I heard that my friend thought I would run away and hide if we would get attacked. I wonder what kind of image I actually present to people.
The latest insult, however, actually cut me deeper. And I don't even think it was meant as one, but the person who uttered it certainly knew that it took. I'm reading a book and he asked me how it was. My answer to him was "brilliant" and he replied "ah so that means 'alright'". I know that we probably don't have the same taste in books, but for him to reply like that... It made me feel dumb. Like I'm an ignorant person who just doesn't know better.
And people wonder why I hate men...
