Auxillary Capillary Blog Squad #3: Lying
Lying. Sometimes when I think about lying, I think of it like hard drugs- I don’t do it, so I forget that anyone else does. They do, all the time, but I’m not paying the right kind of attention.
But really, there’s this other kind of lying. Like sugar or chocolate or coffee, the kind you do every day, and you think it’s not drugs, except when you don’t do it for a day, you get a massive headache. Lies you tell to yourself, nice ways to ignore things, like the person I’m dating doesn’t REALLY pack a gun into the movies, and they’re also not really courting some other person on the side. Convincing myself that it’s okay to just be mad, and not communicate. Rationalizing driving a car around as much as I feel like, since I’m not driving an SUV like some people. The thing is, I get a headache anyway. Even when you’re lying to yourself, you can’t lie all the way.
