Mental Cleansing

I don't really think that I have any specific theme for this post. I just need to clear my head a little.

Titan's going away party was today. It's kind of a lot, three goodbyes in two days, but there's not a lot to do about it. So, basically, it was a bit more partyish, and since the 'away' is a bit more short-term (at least for now), it wasn't as depressing, either. So, there was DDR. Of course. And pool (billiards, no water involved). And a little bit of Mortal Kombat near the end. I wasn't quite as outgoing tonight as I have been at recent parties. I was just too mentally tired to be going at full force for 6 hours. But, it was still fun.

It's kind of strange how quickly things can change. In the matter of a week, whole daily routines were changed, three people left town, one for good, and entire relationships can shift focus permanently.

It kind of makes me happy, in a way, just to see how well people can persevere. In my mind, there's not really anything I'm comparing it with... I mean, you can't just give up on life because it changed a little bit, right? But I'm still kind of astonished just how adaptable people are.

It seems so condescending when I type it out. The whole thought process is kind of strange in my head... It's like trying to catch flies.... You can always tell it's there, and can usually point it out at any one moment, but as soon as you try to corner it and kill it (or as the case may be, understand it), it flits off in another direction, and you're left scratching your head, wondering where on earth that came from.

I just needed a little bit of release. Of what? Who knows.
