Life Enhanced

My ex is .... my friend. Finally. And the other most recent has always been
Maybe I should ... see if I can pull out a D in English
I love ... people that will commit to a whole day of snow-shoeing with me, and boys that date and love curvy girls
I don't understand ... a certain emotional, social, and genetic issue that keeps popping up in my life (and I must say I'm a bit exhausted from it)
I lost my ... pity party. I'm responsible for me and loving the empowerment it gives.
People would say that I'm ... a Sagittarius. :) Thanks Dave for pointing it out so often
Sex is ... something I have now (only slightly) begun to occasionally dream about
Love is ... listening to someone who needs you to and not judging them for a single word they say
Somewhere, someone is ... anxious to meet me
I will always ... need family and green outdoor life
Forever is ... a ways away
I think the current President is ... terrifying. Please let O8 be a good election year!
I woke up this morning ... at four and kept drifting in and out of sleep while reciting a monologue. I need a life.
Life is full of ... itchy surprises
My past ... feels like a translucent fabric being draped over me. Ever present and ever ready to remind me to deal with it
I get annoyed when ... I tire a lot faster than I used to
I wish ... I knew what to do about next semester
My dog ... at home in PA in a kennel lonely and anxious to chew up the stuffed monkey that lives on the side of my bed
Tomorrow I'm going to ... have a VERY full day. Hopefully see my parentals
I have no tolerance for people who ... leave you cheated (of many things)
If I had a million dollars I would ... build my dream cottage, escape life for a year bringing my friend with me who needs to do the same, travel to New Zealand, give someone some scholarship thingy and then invest the rest
Sometimes I want to ... sleep beside someone just to feel the pulse of another person
Home is ... Pennsylvania and floating the Susquehanna
We are ... needing human connection
This weekend ... will be show packed and family-centric
I understand ... that I need to pace myself. 21 is young... in spite of the wrinkles and single gray hair I've discovered. :)
If I had a chance ... I would wake up cuddling next to someone I love watching the sunrise. (This never changes)

Happy First Day Back After Holidays and Feasting

My family is in town for the wonderful days of Thanks. We went skiing. I know... there wasn't really anything to ski on, but we did it anyway.

I miss Jimmy a lot. And a few other choice individuals during the holidays. The holidays are also a reminder of my singlehood. Not sure if I'm happy or unhappy about that. I missed my current best guy friend a lot. It was weird not to be attached at the hip. It was also annoyingly weird to see him look so damn attractive today. Seriously, could he have been a little kinder and shaved the beard or cut the hair so I wasn't so incredibly drawn to him? That would have been... courteous?

Anyway. I need to be trying to pass my classes. Or at least the one that is still an option to pass. Okay... I exaggerate only 2 of the 9 are out of range. And really only the one is an absolute bomb. Still, it's weird for the Type A me to be so not anywhere close to that.

Um... life is good though! Christmas and turning 22 are right around the corner. I'm going to try to go out somewhere fun for my birthday. Last year will be hard to top. Also, the puppy will soon be within my clutches. No longer will the parents hold a monopoly on my little wee.

So there's the update. Maybe I'll try to post a bit more frequently. Summer plans are starting to formulate but are still up in the air. We'll see what comes of that.

Chilling Times

I love you. I'll never be able to say it to you face to face. So electronically I send it to the world.

And even though I know love is a very big word, I mean it.

And I also know that you are distancing yourself and drawing yourself out.

I almost kissed you a second time. The indecision still burns on my lips.
