I knew I'd go grey.

I refuse.

Technically i dont have hair because im a lizard.

But the fake beard i wear to look like a man has a gray spot and i am not going to dishonor it with hair dye.

We look at some of the simplest life on the planet and think it's gross or bad.

You can look at that stuff and think, ewwww nasty, but our perceptions of such things are purely cultural and biological. Gross stuff seems gross to use because we evolved in such away to be repulsed by possibly unhealthy or dangerous scenarios.

For example, we evolved to find the smell of poop bad, because it's unhealthy for us to interact with it. Certain other animals get over this disgust because they are able to get nutrition from undigested food in their poop.

Gross and bad are value judgments, and they require a system of values to have meaning. In absolute sense, humans are just as (not) gross or (not) bad as poop or bacteria or sunshine.

i'm tired of chasing the happiness myth

This is a great action movie one liner, but is also true in a lot of ways:

I knew I'd go grey.

I just have a random patch of gray right on the left side of my chin. Its like, no, you're supposed to be evenly distributed across the face.

finally in need to ask for some real help about this situation im in.

In work situations, it comes down to either: telling your boss your concerns, or commiserating with your coworkers about what a butt he is.

If you can't make the source of stress go away, you have to find a healthy outlet to relieve it.

Are you referring to the Event Horizon spacecraft? Because if so, I think I've seen that film 5 times and I have no idea why.

It's a good scary movie, if we're thinking the same one.

You sound kind of squeamish to me. Of course I grew up the son of a veterinarian so I got to hold up bull's tails while he castrated them. Their tails are not known for being clean. Heck me and my brother used to have testicle fights where we threw the bull or pig nuts at each other. Great fun!

I had to hold pigs every Saturday at a sale barn too, so my dad could vaccinate them. They would get excited when you picked them up and urinate and defecate all over everyone involved. Add to that cleaning out horse stalls for 10 years and suddenly sticking my hand in a bowl full of my own urine doesn't seem like a problem. Been there done that without rubber gloves.

Field dressing deer is kind of gross though. The first time I pulled a steaming pile of heart, lungs and guts out of a 200 pound animal that had been alive 5 minutes ago it kind of got to me. Now I kind of enjoy it... the clean up is rough though. Rinse off your hands with a bottle of water and wipe them on the cold grass or leaves and you still look like one of Manson's crew.

I dont doubt i am. My dad butchered a pig a couple of times in our garage and seeing the decapitated pig head in a bucket is probably one of the reasons i'm a vegetarian.

That's funny! A pen is keepingy hair up right now...maybe I should be careful it won't fall out.

To be honest, I wonder if the pencil, or a pen, would really back up the septic tank. Since it's so skinny. But it wasn't a chance I was willing to take.
