Your line about the brick I've said basically about cars honking. I never think they are for me.
I used to be really sensitive, but ... well ... I dunno. I'm sensitive to some stuff and completely miss others. Like the stuff people want to be hurtful, I think :P.
Yeah, I seem to have inherited from my mother a tendency to think that someone is trying to be hurtful when they aren't, necessarily. So, that's the thin-skinned part. And then there's the thick-headed stuff, like when someone's trying to subtly tell me to do something or stop doing something (lots of high school shit in this category) and it just goes right past me.

Nothin' subtle about Jane Russell, either

I should get back to my yoga.

Date: 2008-12-13 12:38 am (UTC)Goofy thing about me -- I'm both obtuse and hypersensitive. I've gotten a lot better about it, bit by bit over the years.
