Signs telling me that I should complete my b-day manifesto: a lot

One thing I left off of my b-day resolution/manifesto list was that I was finally going to pluck up the courage to tell this guy how I feel. I've been putting this off forever and I've regretted not saying anything (I'm a loser and didn't figure out how awesomely awesome he was until later). Anyway... today all the signs were there....

In one of my classes we were talking about Hamlet and we got off on to the discussion of putting things off. My prof used the example of asking someone out. It seems simple. Yes or no. But to me there's that whole extra layer of emotion and rejection. Eww.... Then there's the whole idea that once you say it, you can never unsay it. Last semester we talked a lot about that when reading the Love Song of J Alfred Prufrock. Man, that poem really made me freak out because I totally understand his situation more than I should.

Life is so complicated as it is, so why does it have to be made more complicated by the fear of rejection?????

And why do people think Babar is some political statement??? Sweet mother of Yoda. I can't even look on Yahoo anymore.
