Massively educated yes. I have a body of knowledge most will discount out of hand, and I couldn't care less.
Intelligent though? no, intelligent means smart, not required to mean education, merely not stupid. I know a great deal more than most, but it doesn't make me necessarily smart. I do tend to have the answer in a lot of cases, but, factoids are like possessions, they are just things you carry around.
I have found myself, for all my vast store of knowledge, to all the same be unable to just not do stupid things, to not just be clueless with the mundane.
There are a few things connected to my lot in life, that I have considered to be true. I have found out they are not as I had thought them. Various portions of my life, have evidently not been accurate. I have found out some details, things I have been rambling on about, and I find out, oh that was not the case. It tends to make you feel like a complete schmuck too.
No I have not lost any friends recently. No I have not lost and family recently. But, it appears I might have been regarding some of the professionals in my life incorrectly. And in some cases, I have simply not being hearing, and in some cases simply have not been told, a few details, that sure would have been nice to have been told sooner.
I find myself wondering, ok I can't zig, and I can't zag, and there isn't a third option, so what the hell do I do?
Damned if I do and damned if I don't.
I have spent all day just going through the motions now basically wondering, what is the point, I am not sure I have a point any more now.
It is hard to do anything at all, when there in no joy in anything at all.
