Newsflash: I HATE Washing Dishes
Greetings all,
As you can see from the title of this article, its taking a bit
of a different turn than my usual writings. But as it starts...I HATE
washing dishes...
Here I stand with my fingers engulfed in Joy country lemon
scented water with bubbles abounding... I hate washing dishes because
I think... alot. Nothing like the mundane activities that require
mindless repetition to get someone to do that...
Various things come to mind, why should *I* be washing dishes?
Why can't it be like in the movies where all your chores are
magically done and all you need to do is just wake up and yer rich,
thin and clean? *Attempting to pop wayward bubble* But that's not how
vampirism is... Everything mundane in life is exactly the same for a
vampire as it is for everyone else, we all have our regular lives
barring the one difference where we have to feed. *Where we swoop
down on our unsuspecting prey and take their blood with no thought or
care to what they're feeling because we have no emotions and we can
do whatever we want and won't get caught!! Muahahahahaha!!* Why are
there so many dishes left? (Grrr) I don’t' want to wash dishes no
more!! *Thinks of sobbing* Uhh ok, so we don't swoop, we don't fly
and we do have emotions, no killing either, no unsuspecting prey
either...
As my ponderance over the bubblicious sink continues I myself
wonder what this article's sposed to be about. Expectations. That's
all it’s basically saying. When I first began my quest to search for
the truth about my vampirism, my tendencies, I thought coming into
the community I'd learn all the secrets of what a vampire is, maybe
even learn that there's more to it than just needing energy. Hoping
that after a brief bout of posting and learning, I'd be led to a well
where my mentors would show me there was more... More than just
needing energy, shielding, filtering... That I'd be led down a path
by them that would show me all I would need to know. Expectations,
and cruel reality. No, we're not all that special. No, we're not the
keepers of some ancient secrets, and no, your mentors can't lead you
down a path. Your mentors can only place you on your path, tell you
what to watch out for, and let you go about it on your own. When you
reach the ends of your journey, you'll find that you are much better
for it. And those dishes? They'll never wash themselves.
