wanna go? c'mon, let's go. i dare ya.
i've been getting into a lot of arguments this week. they've all been at work, but that's probably because i have been eschewing the company of man outside of work.
or maybe it's not that i'm getting into more arguments, but that i let contentious discussions and disagreements escalate in a way i don't normally. this week, i'm less willing to placate, flatter, softpedal or otherwise cushion my thoughts.
i have various theories as to why, ranging from sleep issues to insufficient or excess caffiene, or, most disturbingly, the idea that isolating myself socially makes me a much bigger bitch than i am normally. why be nicer than i want to be if i don't care if someone is my friend or not? i mean, i don't want to do anything to jeopardize my job and i don't think i've even come close. in fact, i think my unwillingness to back down is similar to the arguing style of the men i work with. why should i back down if they don't? why should i worry about bruising someone's ego if i think they're being completely stupid?
and why do programmers always have strongly held opinions on design? geah.
