I want to write, so I'm writing. I've tried to start this blogging thing before, but it hasn't caught on. But how many times do I have to tell myself that I need to just write, and I never do? write. Write!!! WRITE!! It's really not pulling teeth.

Today's battle: Feelings vs. Logic

I don't know all that much about women or about psychology for that matter, but I find this field of gender psychology effin' fascinating. I'm not sure that it's technically a field, but it should be. I'm curious to find out what people think about this, but from my experiences I've seen a heavy inclination of women towards feeling-based decisionmaking, with guys leaning towards logic.

But I just don't understand how life can function making our every decision based on what we feel right NOW. At this particular moment. I mean, it's just reality that shit happens and life isn't peaches every day, right? I feel like sometimes we need to accept the routineness of life and of relationships. Isn't that what stability is? Hmmm...I'm not really sure where I'm going with this, but I'm tired so I want to sleep now. Try to pick up again later.

Before I go, I watched a movie recently, which I'll leave unnamed because it wasn't very good. But, there was one interesting hypothetical question posed, which for some reason I feel like sharing.

Alright, so you're at a bus stop in the pouring rain, and you have a car that will fit just two people. There's you, your best friend, who once saved your life, an old lady who needs to be rushed to a hospital, and your soul mate, who you're seeing for the first time. Who do you take in the car?

Chew on that for a minute.
