My Biggest DisappointmentOften the things we look forward to the most turn out to be a huge let down. As Freddy Woo puts it, "High heels in bed? No fun at all. Porn has a lot to answer for."
Well, Freddy, you are supposed to get someone else to wear them.
What's disappointed you lot?

Most nights from about the age of 8 to 15.I was a bit of an Emo kid before Emo was invented. I wanted to get away from everyone and live on my own and would constantly daydream about the end of the world and being the only survivor. Jesus, sometimes I wonder how I'm still here.
Anyway I got it into my head that if I wanted it bad enough then I could will an alien spaceship to visit and whisk me away from all of this. (This was before I knew about anal probes and all the other shit they do to you).
So most nights before bed I would stare out of my bedroom window and wait for the UFO to appear that was going to save me from my mediocre life. I would stare so hard at the night sky that my eyes would start to throb. Every bloody night I waited and waited for the pulsating light to form amidst the clouds, for the fuzzy shape of a saucer to appear and for a peircing ray of light to shoot down and suck me up to my new and exciting life.
Well I'm still here.
And even now some nights I still peer out at the night sky for a minute or two and think maybe, somehow, tonight it will happen.

I also did this!The UFO thing, I mean. Not the Emo bit at the beginning.
But I fantasised more that the aliens would stay here and inject some excitement into my current life, sharing their technology and wisdom with me, rather than whisking me off to their world.
I'm just glad I grew out of that........
*cough*

*Blows raspberry at Thinker*I don't mind admitting to the fact that I'm still childlike in some aspects.

Haha :)I admit, I still do the same. I never did grow out of it.
God, I hope none of the important and influential people in my real life read this and realise it's me.

*clicky*I'm not admitting to the UFO thing in case it blows my cover and they don't come to take me home.
