So, my catfish...I don't even know anymore.  The things that seemed certain seem to keep changing.  Sometimes when I feel like my love life is screwed up I think of this baracuda I know.  He's always in lvoe with someone who's not in love with him, which made me wonder how he must feel/deal with that ache.  But I think that is how he deals with it...by finding someone else to be in lve with, thus creating this vicious web of girls he's in love with.  But, I couldn't do that, I can't fall in love that easily, or love would lose all its meaning and importance.

In other breakthroughs...I have figured out why today's courtship style has changed from dating to hooking up.  We have allowed ourselves to be horribly influenced by reality TV.  Most reality dating shows involve a male fantasy concept of one male contestant getting to pick a "winner" female out of many women.  In the short , segmented shows they can't have big, complex relationships that focus on deeply knowing a person, they can only try for who has the most/best physical connection.  Oh, how I loathe dating/relationshps/being in love.

So, it seems I've got a pending interview with a reality TV star/model.  I don't want to promise anything, but if you got the chance to ask someone like that a question what would it be?

It's part of my research for a paper I'm writing about the Naomi Wolf's beauty myth.  The "beauty myth" depicts the ways in which man made ideals of beauty are still controlling us today, because we let them, because if we don't we're social rejects...basically.

So help me out.  Who knows, this could turn into a article for here or the talon.  Which reminds me don't forget to read my article, "How I Spent My Summer Vacation" in the September issue of the Talon.  It can also be found online, but I'd have to help you find it, don't know it off the top of my head.

Eventhough I'm pretty damn smart, my latest fish has got me quite confused.  Help me out.
  So, I've been doing a show with this guy.  After we had been hanging out for awhile he invites me over to his apartment and in walking in discover that not only is he still with someone, but he's now living with her.  The whole time I'm there I can clearly identify her territorial markers and his general indifference towards her.  It kinda weirds me out.  For the rest of the run of this show when we get done at 9:30 we sit in his truck and he sings to me for about 3 hours.  He's told me he doesn't want to be with her and that he thought they were going to break up due to distance twice, but then she stayed with him, geographically.  He's asked me out, knowing he's still with her.  He calls, he texts, he writes blogs that seem to be about me.
So, is he just not that into me or is he just not that into the girlfriend? 

Is all this simply part of the summer heat?

I'm so confused!

Love is for the lucky, brave and heat struck.
