    What also matters is if you regard all opinions as being of equal value or not. I personally don't.

    Not too bad, actually. I have a lot of work on my plate for this afternoon (have to finish a file that didn't come in until this morning, usually I have part of the previous night to work on it as well), but on the other hand I just received the definite casting list for the theater production that I'm playing in in June, and I received the exact two scenes that I most wanted (it's a collection of scenes based on a single theme rather than an actual play), and I'll have two of my group's favorite actors joining me in those scenes to boot, so that's great.

    Plus, I have a sweet potato and chorizo quiche to look forward to tonight. Yum.

    How have you been yourself?

    Blocking it out never works, you'll have to deal with it at some point. But trying to focus on good things to help you deal with the bad is a pretty good idea as well.

    I didn't want to name names, but I can't really argue with that.

    This is not always true. "I think" can also mean something like "It is my belief that..." or have the meaning that you say it doesn't. Thats the lovely part of the English language.

    if it's your belief then you're implying that you could be wrong about it.

    But 'belief' still has the inherent implication of subjectivity (at least from a linguistic point of view), regardless of how badly some people want to think that their beliefs are objective truth.
