Bitter Much?

So I’m sitting at my desk on the computer since…well, that’s what I do. I’m a Sys Admin. About every six months or so I get into “I wonder what happened to…” mode. I try to find somebody I went to school/played sports/hung out/was involved/worked with. Apparently my friends are all part of some conspiracy against technology. In all this time I have managed to find exactly ONE person I went to high school with…also named Steve. He’s an on-air radio personality in Atlanta.
Anyway, a few months ago I looked up a girl I knew from an AOL chatroom about 12 years ago. She’s on Myspace like everyone else on the planet except people I went to school with. She was from Northern California but going to school in Nevada at the time. We chatted online and talked on the phone once in a while. She ended up moving to Atlanta for a summer job and I guess she thought there was more to our friendship than there was. While she was here we went out onnce and spent the night together. We talked online after that but I never called her or pursued a relationship with her. One of the few “hit it and quit it” encounters I’ve had. It’s not my nature and I felt bad about it but there just wasn’t much we had in common really. This did not sit well with her apparently.
I sent her a message that was part ‘how are you’ and part apology…not that I truly needed to. I had never said anything to her that would’ve indicated I was interested in us becoming a “we”. She responded, said it bothered her for a good while and was glad I apologized. That was the end of that. I didn’t follow up with her. Then last month I sent a happy holidays type message via Myspace again. She never responded to that. Apparently despite my apology she’s still angry. For chrissakes how long are you gonna let something that happened 12 years ago bother you? Get the fuck over it. I know she’s had much worse happen to her than that. I would never let something eat at me that long. Somebody needs a therapist.
Most all relationships/encouters end on a bad note. Are you gonna beat yourself up over all of them? Dang! I’m just sayin…
Addition to the Kill List below…

Reverend Al Sharpton. He should be killed. Now he’s got his panties all up in a wad because a white female commentator jokingly used the word ‘lynch’ in reference to Tiger Woods. Tiger has known this woman for over ten years and apparently he wasn’t bothered in the least. However Rev. Al once again took it upon himself to be offended for all of Black America. He insists they fire the woman…for one single word. A word that wasn’t even used with any ill intent. ARE YOU FUCKING KIDDING ME? Why are you sooo offended when Tiger himself wasn’t?
Half the reason we still have racism in this country is because of Civil Rights dinosaurs like Al Sharpton and Jesse Jackson
cry wolf so often that the rest of America tunes out whenever those two show their faces on tv. Why the fuck does Al still have a job after that whole Tawanna Brawley thing? Why does Jesse Jackson still have a job after referring to New York as “Himey Town” back in 1984? You cannot be serious?
We need to get off this “White man keepin us down” victim shit. The Emancipation Proclamation was signed in 1863. If your black ass is still on the plantation it’s your own damn fault. I got news for you, General Custer…the cavalry is not coming to save you. You need to pull yourself up and take your future into your own hands.
