Here I am again, neglectful of my duty to keep all you hungry readers satiated with regular updates about my oh-so-intriguing life.
I'll endeavor to dress up the mundane a bit in order to make it seem a bit more worthwhile.
Ahh, well now, last time I was here I had rambled on a bit about a break-up and my radical excursions into ancient rejuvenative...

I've been meaning to update my blog here for months now. I had wanted to tell tales of being in love, infectious smiles, sparkly eyes, great dates, amazing food, awesome music and other moments of joy.
But alas, those times have passed and are now just fading memories. Indeed, I'm single again and forlorn and heartbroken. Oh, I fell hard for that woman, but she...

So sorry to hear about your troubles as well my dear friend. And I will add to BB's comment on the "not an easy guy to be in love with" part.... I've always said: there is a BIG difference between acting like an asshole and being an asshole (this applies to both males and females). Recognizing things within yourself and trying to improve upon them shows that you are very aware of your behavior. I applaud you for that.
It was very hard for me to do. I was slipping in and out of depression and it needed to stop. At least this way, I ended it on my own terms and with some sort of closure. Not something we all get. I'm not the easiest person to love either but I can say that I tried my best.
I don't go out looking and I don't give my heart away often. But I do have some great friends here to keep me company. Being back in the ranks of the single means I can jump back into my Northern Path studies. I've neglected them for so long.
Blessed be to you as well.

Sorry to hear about this. Hope life is going better for you lately 
dare I say it?
I mean, I don't want jinx it
but, two dates in
and I think I'm already falling in love
I was so determined to remain focused on my tasks at hand
but life had much greater plans
And so fun how it all played out
divine little coincidences every step along the way
oh, she makes me melt and leaves me...

hmmmm crafty move 
well played sir!
well played sir!
sweetkc:
Yes, better luck to both of us! I'm sorry to hear things didn't work out for you. Lost love is such a disappointment but always a lesson learned. Take care of yourself
ok, so it's been far too long since I put much heart into one of these
tonite, i remedy that
it seemed from far off that this day was destined for auspicity
yet sometimes things align
and other times they collide
today, nay, this week has been more collision than alignment
ahhh, but where to begin?
haven't i already written this before?
no, this was...

yeah, i'm in love with the image and how it turned out, better than i ever imagined
okay, it's time to get blogalicious, but fuck, what dare I ramble about?
Life isn't all that spectacular or terrible, I s'pose. I've been brewing a bit lately; playing with some rockin' maple syrup i'm getting from a mutual friend's family plantation and setting my sights on eventually going commercial with a few select potions. So, that's new and almost exciting. Another friend just got...

i love me a hippie or 7 to research (a girl needs help growing her plants and her scobys and blending her essential oils!!!) 
nene:
And if I were closer, good sir... I would gladly plant my ass by the woodstove and have that toddy with you. I've been missing the PNW quite a bit lately.
I'm rather thankful that storm has passed, reminding me of the final scene in Betty Blue, where Zorg returns to the serenity of his solo existence. Mine wasn't entirely serene, what with picking up my wild childs from their mama's. But me and my three do well together, and between them and my friends, they're all the love I need for now. I really did...

thank you, i am so excited and happy about this tattoo, seems a little silly, but it, like any great piece of art, sort of grew into this beautiful thing packed with meaning and the artist is amazing too)
as far as venturing into the darkness to find the light, and then find a place where they can both live together and love each other...i'm not surprised you relate to that. something tells me that (time permitting) in a few months we might have a great opportunity to have some interesting conversations

absolutely! every demon certainly needs a good tickling (and i'll figure out some time to meet up at least for a coffee or a cocktail at some point that weekend that will work around yer kid schedule).
(and i'll figure out some time to meet up at least for a coffee or a cocktail at some point that weekend that will work around yer kid schedule).okay, time for a new post and a big time rant
I think i've finally reached the age where I just don't give a shit about how inappropriate I may seem for standing up against what's not right.
That bold honesty may prove to be my undoing, but fuck it, I've got nothing to lose by being real.
See, I went out one night with...

Sorry dude
bettybruises:
haha well let's hope not
on another note, um, yeah there should be a law against fucking with other people's hearts in general. sadly (or not), time has taught me that we're all damaged, some more than others, and sometimes when "love" happens, it's just not the right time. the last time i opened my heart enough to let it love and be loved i was sorely disappointed and fell apart in a big way. now, i'm trying to teach myself to love more freely in general, with friends and family and when the right time and person comes into my life *hopefully* i'll be ready for it and won't let my emotional trauma prevent me from getting and giving love to another person.
sad hearts suck. the hurt sucks. the disappointment and shattered hopes are the worst of the suck.
and i totally get the need and want to just pull into yourself and close up. (i've spent most of my life doing that)
but i'm glad you're speaking up and at least putting your feelings and responses out there. people need to know how their actions effect others.
best wishes, i'm sorry you're having to go through all of this. let the hurt happen and flow and let the healing begin.

illl write about that
how
my mind was thinking something
about something quite specific
and i could not find an apparent answer
but life twisted and turned
and showed me what i needed to see
from different angles and eyes
and now i know

that sounds like a great deal! i'll be working the tournament, so i'm not sure if i'll have a ton of free time, but may try to either come a day early or stay a day late to have some extra time. i never got down to eugene when i lived there so i'm pretty excited to check it out even if it is in soggy february
lumo:
laptop and Iphone still conversing?<3 So curious!
i try to not promote the hate either, but i died laughing at that
