Pondering
Well, I taken up my wonderous hobby of thinking too much. Although thankfully it hasn't gotten me into to trouble yet this time, however I do realize that this is a dangerous past-time and there is always a risk that it could.
What have I been thinking about? Lots of things really. However, mostly things fall back to what I would call, missed oppertunities. I try not to regret the decisions that I've made in the past, however sometimes I can't help but wonder how things would be had I chosen a different path. For example, if I had decided not to ask out the woman who is my current girlfriend, and chosen to attempt a long distance relationship with someone else. How would that have turned out? Would I be happier? Or would I be depressed and unhappy?
It's not really regret, as much as it is curiosity. I suppose this isn't something I should be thinking about. I should be thankful for what I have, but there is always that part of me that likes to ponder the "what if's" of my life. Maybe I'm just an emotional sadist.

Ahhh the 'What If?'s', they are a strange and complex master. Analytical is not the best of personality traits some times. :) Which as you know, I know oh so well.
What I don't know oh so well, is WHO WERE YOU GOING TO HAVE A LONG DISTANCE THING WITH!?!?!?!!? ;)

Dude! So NOT the comment to make on a site that your current gf reads! If I were her, I'd smack you upside the head - then get over it after you did some serious grovelling - but smack you upside the head non-the-less.
If "what ifs" were good thoughts, we'd be in cheery moods when we had them. I'm not generally in a cheery mood when I'm in the "what if" mode... either you're just pensive or in a non-cheery mood.
