Congratulations on changing your life!

Effective January 29th, 2003 I will be implementing a new three-fold plan to make my life not suck as much, or at least trick my brain in that respect. This plan will be replacing the previous plan titled "Compensation" (Jun. 1. 1995 - Jan. 28. 2003) that can be reviewed in the previous entry.

Step One:
Posted on the exterior of my door will be a "Rejection-meter". The meter will make clear the current level of rejection I'm experiencing that day (from 0% to 100%), to avoid confusion as to my moods. While the meter is not a definate gauge of the level of caution you should show, it will help explain my tendency to lay on the floor staring at the ceiling listening to Mountain Goats for hours and hours. Also, the rejection-meter will make it plainly clear what nights I do or don't want to get completely smashed with you.

Step Two:
From henceforth I am asexual. When others inquire of my sexuality (whether I play for the wrong team), simply tell them that I am asexual and don't really concern myself with physical relationships. While this is not true in the least, I am attempting to adapt the label and then conform myself to it afterwards, like declaring onceself to be vegan from now on 5 minutes after eating a cheese pizza. In addition, I'm hoping that by placing myself in the untouchable "asexual" catagory my life will go from being "a shame that she can't develop relationships" to "a shame that she's not interested in me or anyone". Yes, we all want what we can't have, even if it's broken. Also, this label will allow me to flirt with whomever I like at all times, since I will make it clear that I'm "not interested" and "just kidding around". So remember, from now on, not "lonely" - "asexual"!

Step Three:
A sign will be posted on my bedroom door that clearly states: "There will be no sexual relations in this room unless they are with me." If I'm not getting any (which I'm not), neither are you...or at least not within 3 feet of me while I try to ignore it and go to sleep.

I'm hoping that with your cooperation we can make the transition to this new system a smooth one for everyone involved.
