out of sight, out of mind

[low_delta]

I have this memory/attention problem, where if I don't see something, I am not aware of it. Like when I leave for work in the morning, and I look around for everything I have to take with me, I will only remember the things that I actually see. Like my lunch. Or the key for the building. I forget that damn keycard at least once a week, and everytime I have to knock on the door and wave at the receptionist to let me in. She's very annoyed about it (not like it shoudl be a big deal or anything.

I'd forget my legs if I could leave without them.

Anyway, I looked at my friends list several times today and never noticed that nahima was not there.

Her last post yesterday was about leaving for a while. She's been getting crap from some of her so-called 'friends' here.

My solution is to always put everything in exactly the same place. That way if I ever need something, it can only be in one possible place. I know it sounds kinda anal, but I've never lost anything in my entire life.

Oh, I forgot to say:

I do that because my mind is a sieve. If there were two or more possible places where something could be, I'd lose everything.

i thought everything was ok w/her??? :(
that is very sad to me.. i hate rude people on lj.. i just don't understand.. why do people want to trash others lives? what does it help for them? how does it make them feel to hurt other people? i do not understand that emotion or -longing- to cause others pain.

That wouldn't help much. I'd still forget to look in that place every day.

People tell me to write myself notes to remember things, but it doesn't help. I forget to read the notes. Or I'll read them ("take out trash") and I'll forget to do what the note says (I'll go back in for the trash, see my lunch, and grab it and leave)

Actually I am anally retentive too. I try to leave things in the correct locations, but somehow they never quite make it there.

*sigh*

They think they're helping.

They think that by saying, "hey asshole, get a life," the person will realize what a pathetic excuse for a human being she really is, and suddenly get back on that path toward enlightenment, to become the way he thinks she really should be.

That's just a guess though. I seldom see any of the hate that drives these people away. They always delete it. I wish they'd leave it up sometimes, so others could see it (and maybe recognise their own words).

Some kind of help
Is the kind of help
that helping's all about
And some kind of help
Is the kind of help
We all can do without

I don't get it either, Blonnie. Except that maybe people are spiteful because they're envious. Or that they think they'll look better by making someone else look bad. By putting someone down, they're putting themselves up? I don't know. I do know that there's far too much misdirected hostility everywhere, and it's just a terrible shame. Harsh judgments abound, when we could all use a little kindness and gentleness instead. We're here to give each other and ourselves a break, not to make life tougher than it already is.

Anyway, Angie sure didn't deserve harassment for expressing herself so wondrously. I hope she returns soon.

LOL yeah sure you are Kevin. Like I believe that for a minute. I'll tell you what I told another friend this morning. When I left, I had no idea it would effect as many people as it did. I guess I was just still stuck in my own little world.

But anyway, I still deciding whether I should come back. There is still a situation that remains unresolved, but I am trying to correct that even as we speak. If I do come back, I want it to be to a completely clean slate.

Someone I know seems to be on a "get Nahima back" kick and is having people flood my inbox with e-mails asking me to come back. Thank you all for caring. It truly means the world to me.
