Can I take it back? And not for store credit.

I also wish that my differences made more people all "Yay...how original," but it's mostly not true.
Like, just enough that I can hold on to the expectation and be disappointed a lot.
Maybe I'm also bad at being Different, though it would seem that that's impossible, that the thing about Originality and Going Your Own Way is that, if you don't really hurt someone, you're always fine.
But that's not how I feel about myself(maybe because I'm usually trying to fit around somebody else's Way at least as much as I do what I think, if not more.
