Hello my Dark little Darlings I have something that has been bothering me for quite some time now and that thing is being called cute.
I get called cute all the time by teachers, strangers, friends and just people I know. I don’t know why they do it but they do, sometimes the say it’s because of the way I dress, or the way I act but the most common response I get when I ask why is “just because you are”.
What the fuck!?!?!?!?
OK I scream out, admit, and tell you that I have no sense of sarcasm what so ever at all. I can’t tell when someone is being sarcastic – at all! And I couldn’t be sarcastic if my life depended on it.
So you ask yourself, where is she going with this little rant.
Answer: they are all being sarcastic. I have no proof but that has to be what’s going on. Either they are all being sarcastic-or-they have all been replaced by the Pod People. And I doubt that they’re all Pod People now.
So what do I do? Well I guess I’ll learn about sarcasm and try and catch one of them, and let them continue to pinch my cheeks and otherwise confuse the hell outta me when they tell me that I’m cute. And also I’ll tell the people who I think are cute that they’re cute too.

How many places have you been such as a department store where one of the sales clerks asks you 'Hi, How are you today'.
I bet you answered lots right?
Most everyone I ever see just answers 'hi-fine-thanks'. Never have I once seen someone ask the clerk 'How are you today?' back. I always try and ask them back after - it's just common courtesy. Plus you would be amazed at how many clerks smile brightly and answer back cheerfully after that.
The incident that prompted this little musing happened today in a stationary store. A sales clerk approached me and asked the usual 'hi, how are you today' to which i answered 'hi, I'm fine thanks, how are you today?' The sales clerk jaw dropped and she grabbed my hand - shook it - and said 'you know I have never been asked how I was doing today in this job before...thank you very much...sometimes we just need to hear it'.
Now by that point I was fairly floored. I never expected that to happen, but I found myself matching that same bright honest smile that she had and then parting ways with her. I've had a smile on my face ever since.
So take a moment to think sometimes just what little everyday actions like asking how someone is today can change theirs {and maybe your} whole attitude or thoughts on things.

Well Dark Darlings I have finally gotten the second of what I had originally hoped would be many guest book submissions. I'm not mad, just a little disappointed. Why do we always put guest books on our sites when we know that visitors will rarely post?
Simple.
We do it in the hopes and in the good faith that maybe someone will post.
Does that make us blind then? To do such a thing even though we know for a fact that not every visitor will leave us a little message either good or bad? I suppose it does. But then again do I really care?

Well my dark darlings I looks like your webmistress may actually have a rant or two {for now anyway} to post. {*Insert evil smirk here*}
One: An incident on msn reminded me of something tonight. Don't let drunk people talk to you on MSN. If you are holding a party or get together don't let the drunk guests talk to the people on your contact list EXPECIALLY if your guest and your contact has no clue who the other is. Don't joke or lie about being drunk either, it's just tacky and causes unnecessary worry.
Two: Friends don't let friends dress like the Crow for Halloween - they just don't { and if you do not believe that advice please be my guest and double check that advice with Gothic Miss Manners on gothic.net}
