Hailey's a bit upset. She's not a flighty or anything but still, I think she's overreacting a little. This girl she knows, Maxine, went to the hospital with the flu or something like that. Hailey's been washing her hands all day, signed the both of us up for flu shots, and I caught her using her sleeve to open a door handle. I kidded her some about that, called her Monk's sister. She's even decided not to go to any parties for a while, until this bug is gone. I told her using a few simple precautions is one thing but changing your activities just to avoid getting sick is another thing. What's next, barricading the door to keep people out, just in case they have the flu?
I find myself back to my earlier question: what is this blog about? Based on the above, it sounds like the blog is only about my girlfriend. I thought blogs were personal, about the author. But maybe by talking about Hailey, I'm actually talking about myself, demonstrating that I have self-image issues when I try to think of my life in terms without my girlfriend....Nope, don't think so.
But enough of this existentialism bullshit (if that really is existentialism - I'm an English major, not a Philosophy major. All I know, and care, is that I spelled existentialism correctly.) From now, this is going to be a true blog. It will be purely an exercise in stroking my own ego, convincing myself that people are actually reading this and give a crap about my life. It will be all about me, not about Hailey or anyone else. But if you read this, Hailey, I'm not saying that I don't care about you or anything. You're the most important thing in my life. Other than Bugles, of course.
Mmmm, Bugles.
