What do people want from me? (What do I want from myself?)

Item.  Sunday night at dinner someone accused me of something I'm
proud of not doing -- or do I?

Item.  Recently I've wanted to do various things that I know I
shouldn't.  Things that would hurt people, things taht would piss
people off.  So far, I've stifled these temptations; but I don't
want to.

Item.  There are a number of things which I need to get done which
have been sitting on my desk for weeks.

Item.  The discussions on the Conservative Judaism mailing list are
making me despair of ever finding a branch of Judaism which is
``authentic'' to me and which will be accepted by everybody.

Item.  I promised to do something for someone and kept putting it
off until it was too late to get it done in time.

Conclusion:  I'm a confused, irresponsible person who is an imposition
and an inconvienience to his friends.
