signs.

he had a tattoo of a compass.

mine is a kanji that means "to seek".

somewhat amusing
when i think of how lost and unsure he is of his direction,
while I feel like I have found something I've been looking for,
but ultimately is not mine to keep.

if my life were a movie

Perfect in its total imperfection, I experienced my very own 'before sunrise' type night last night. It's hard to believe there might be a sequel so I think I'll just be content to let life play out and see how my story actually unfolds.

yep

my regular monday night dindin with the ladies happened on tuesday this week.
once again, we meandered through a bunch of wine and a tonne more chat about what's good for us, career junk, what we *need*, cute boys married to 20 yr olds in Australia and my rather unfortunate falling off of the E-wagon. For those not in the loop..sorry, you'll never be. Just know i'm back in virtual AA. no, i'm not an alcoholic or drug addict...my addictions manifest elsewhere it seems.

i truly am not sure how i made it so long in my last relationship or life in general without these chicks to bounce stuff off of...but i vow never ever again to underestimate girl energy and the immense benefit having them in my life is.... that sentence didn't make sense but it's late. i just got home and i'm way too tipsy for work tomorrow. though T was waaay drunker. pointy fingers drunk. have a fun day..sucka.

love you ladies.

amusing...to me anyway.

Once again, I remain ever so amused as I indulge my morbid fascination and come across an obit like this one...

...Passed away unexpectedly on August 4, 2006 in her 94th year.

Unexpectedly? At 94? Really?

semantic antics

This morning, the trusty elevator tv that amuses me with news tidbits, stock quotes i don't understand and 'the word of the day' on my otherwise understimulating trip to the 33rd floor, rudely informed me that i'm a moron.

Today's word of the day was "Gloze", meaning: To minimize or underplay.

Well for all *intensive purposes*, I think i'll just *gloss* over that like i've always done....

I'm a superstar

Driving home from ultimate (after a particularly fun game in which i was a total rockstar), coasting down the DVP while getting my Love Inc on, I realized something.

I'm happy.

Not because of a boy
Not because of a new job
Not because of a planned trip
Not because i'm out of debt or some how won the lottery without playing
Not for any reason in particular, other than the mere fact that i think i'm starting to figure this whole *living* thing out.
