ocelotNext year, someone remind me that the first day of classes is not the best day to eat lunch on campus, especially when short on time and/or impatient with waiting in lines.
I ended up with two blueberry muffins and an apple, as the bakery line was significantly shorter than anything else (30 seconds, rather than 10 minutes).
I got to the library, and the power was out. It came back on shortly after I arrived, which is good since I work in a tiny windowless office. It's also good because the return of power caused my computer to start up, so it was ready and waiting for me when I came in.
Someone pointed out this job to me. It sounds interesting, but kind of throws all variations of![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
koyote and my plans for a loop. Not that this hasn't happened before.
I'm not really sure it's what I'd like to do. I'm getting rather burnt out on the technical thing. Then again, I'm barely doing technical work as it is now, so perhaps it's the BS I'm getting burnt out on, and not the work.
Perhaps I'll go ahead and apply, just for the hell of it.
Today is slow and boring. Perhaps this is life's way of encouraging me to get some classwork done. Such as the survey for my Human Sexuality class, which I'm probably not going to do, as it is only worth 5 points (out of 300), which is really not enough to incline me to spend an hour on self-psychotherapy.
The Survey:
1. What messages about being male/female did you receive as a child? What were your family's attitudes about nudity and talk about sex? How was affection demonstrated in your home? As a child, what sorts of sexual playing did you do, and were you ever caught?
2. How do the messages about sex and sexuality that you learned in your childhood affect your sexuality today and the ways you relate to intimate partners?
3. How did your family handle your emerging sexuality (dating, special friends, bodily changes)? Who handled it?
4. How have your views and actions regarding sexuality changed as you've developed? How have you changed in the ways you relate to an intimate or sexual partner?
5. What memories do you have of your first significant sexual (not necessarily intercourse) experiences?
6. Do you have any memories of being sexually exploited?
7. What is pleasurable about being male/female today?
8. What is unpleasurable about being male/female today?
Feel free to fill it out and post the answers in your journal. Not that I'm going to, but you can if you'd like.
