So I just started this post so I could be angsty and now that I'm here, I'm not all that angsty. That, I will not complain about. For a casual update of my life, I do absolutely nothing except watch as many movies as I can get my hands on and try to sleep through most every day to avoid having feelings. This morning from 2 am to 4 pm I watched Taking Woodstock, which I loved. I wish I could go back in time to 1969. I think I wish that everyday of my life. I wish I was in Bethel, New York. Sometimes, I try to piece together all the things that cause me misery and then decide what would pacify all of it. I have a religion, people that love me, ambitions, dreams. But most of the time none of that means anything to me. Damn.

Reason #347 Why You Wish You Were An Amazon

Amazon (ăm'uzon), in Greek mythology, one of a tribe of warlike women who lived in Asia Minor. The Amazons had a matriarchal society, in which women fought and governed while men performed the household tasks. Each Amazon had to kill a man before she could marry. It was believed that the Amazons cut off one breast in order to shoot and throw spears more effectively. Hippocrates describes them as: "They have no right breasts...for while they are yet babies their mothers make red-hot a bronze instrument constructed for this very purpose and apply it to the right breast and cauterize it, so that its growth is arrested, and all its strength and bulk are diverted to the right shoulder and right arm." (See breast ironing, a current practice in which breast growth is deliberately stunted.)They were celebrated warriors, believed to have been the first to use cavalry, and their conquests were said to have included many parts of Asia Minor, Phrygia, Thrace, and Syria. No men were permitted to have sexual encounters or reside in Amazon country; but once a year, in order to prevent their race from dying out, they visited the Gargareans, a neighbouring tribe. The male children who were the result of these visits were either killed, or sent back to their fathers or exposed in the wilderness to fend for themselves; the females were kept and brought up by their mothers, and trained in agricultural pursuits, hunting, and the art of war.
