when does your christmas break begin? sounds like you really need it. Concerning the gentleman question: I think gentlemanliness is akin to beauty. It lies in the eye of the beholder. There are of course certain universal traits that are usually considered to be beautiful and so it is, I think, with gentlemanliness. But just as two different men may know the same woman and one think her to be attractive while the other considers her plain, so two women might know the same man and one think him to be a gentleman while the other considers him to be a brute. I would like to think of myself as being a gentleman and I know of several people who would say that I am, but I am sure there are some out there who might think otherwise. Maybe the definition of a gentleman is more universal than that of beauty, but those are just my thoughts on the subject. But I can say for sure where I stand on two out of the three criteria. I am not married and I am not dead.

Men suck. It's a fact of life. But there are probably still some sweet ones out there. I guess.

hey! i can...and i'm a...oh...married?

damn.

I hate it when guys do that -_- Seriously, can they not take a hint and get lost? Gentlemen still exist--they're just hiding and some are just boys who need to grow up and then could become gentlemen . . . I guess . . . I'm sorry work sucks, I really am :'( Hope it gets better and that your Christmas is fantastic!
