Recently StrongMad had a list of quotes in his journal, one of which was something like the person that cares the least in relationship holds the most power. That quote popped into my mind this weekend. I have to say with it swirling through my head I did learn two things:
ONE: I care DEEPLY about my computer. I cant explain how utterly lost I...

Computers are just pigs by nature. And really, pretty damn stupid, too.
Grey Metal
It lay between us. Heavy on the table, glinting cold in the blinking lights.
Christmas - the wind wrapping us in the house. Outside, for miles, are gravel roads that lead behind the airport, near the factories, to dead ends with no streetlights.
Silence between us. And there it is. Waiting for one of us to take it up. To use this moment...

Damn girl. This looks really good.

Wow, I didn't know that Portland ws such a polite place. The criminals call 911 on themselves and everything! Seriously, though, that's pretty weird. This guy also didn't get away with anything, he just messed the house up and freaked us out.
Why can't they be more straightforward, knock on the door, and say "Hi, I need drugs. Could I have $50? Otherwise I might feel tempted to break into your lovely home." Then at least we wouldn't be cleaning up after him.

I am thankful to baysponge for coming up with the idea for Thanksgiving Tag
I am thankful for brilliant, clear days after monotonous grey.
I am thankful for two beautiful healthy children who already make this world better
I am thankful that I manage NOT to loose my temper all the time at those two beautiful children
I am thankful that my biggest worry is...

I am thankful that I have the money to pay for car repairs.

It's like I don't even know you! That song rules, Diana Krall rules, and she married my favorite artist of all time, creating a perfect musical storm. Otherwise I am teh suck. Got dumped by email this weekend. Good times. Email me yourself for details.
Seriously, comfort. Think about it.
Seriously, comfort. Think about it.
The East wind strips the leaves off the trees, forcing them to shed their summer in golden tears that are driven down the street to collect in drifts in the gutters. The wind, with its prying fingers, rattles my windows trying to pull my rooms light out into the biting night. Scotch, the perfect fall drink, warms in my hand. Its nights like these that...

Come on people there are multiple lanes on the freeway for a REASON. If you decide to go the same speed as the person in the lane next to you - you should be in the SAME lane. This allows others who WANT to pass you to be able to do so. I know this may be a very novel concept to some of you,...

I had one of those last night. In his defense, he was going 66 while the car beside him was going 65. So he was passing, just verrrry slooowly.

That reminds me of the middle of winter at home. I'd draw in the frost on windows and I drank hot chocolate all the time.. Ah, I miss those days..
That must be it ---> Currently, we are talking about the birth, live, and death of stars.. The whole mixing of everything, compression and ejecting of matter and particles into open space, convection.. The list does go on, doesn't it?
Sadly, I haven't seen this guy in a few days now, I think I have to start leaving a little earlier for class..
I wish I knew why my cramps got so bad this time around.

That's the worst haiku I've ever seen!
I always found it strange and very telling that he had seen the movie of Fahrenheit 451 but not read the book. I had tried to convince him of the incongruity of this, but he had steadfastly held to the belief that only watching served him well enough. It was subtle differences like this; small ironies that werent shared that finally caused the end. Sometimes,...

I second StickyRice, Bradbury has been one of my greatest influences as a writer.
As for the difference over a book or movie, no I don't think that's any less reason to end a relationship, not if it a) forms a pattern, and b) reveals a deeper divergence between people.

I'm starting to think we all just suck at spending more than a couple years together. Once we decide we 'know' the other person it seems to slowly disintegrate, perhaps this is just the second law of thermodynamics at work. Still, we have the ability to be creative, and somehow I can't help but feel that the secret to getting along is in being creative and evolving... course I could also be completely wrong...
I dont think that I have ever had it so across the boards that everything that I can draw strength from is causing me pain my friends, my family, my lover, even my physical body. Truthfully, Im pretty damn tired of trying to be strong and I want to collapse and cry for awhile. Luckily, it is raining so hard nobody will notice.

Old wives tale: When you have a cold, have sex and the cold will go away. Problem is your partner will most likely get it.
