Hey SG Friends and Neigbors,
I hope this finds you well and good.
Okay, here's the skinny. I met the woman I want to spend the rest of my life with. I'm getting married, looks like summer 06. Its as serious as all that.
Her name . . . I can't think of a nickname for her, nothing does it justice so I'm just going to call her my girl for now.
I met her a while back, just when I stareted to rekindle things with my highschool sweetheart (who I hurt again for like the millionth time over this if you are keeping score
sorry again).
We kept seeing each other (she is cousin to one of my roommates and looking to moving to Athens). One night I sat down to talk to her, seriously, about why this wasen't going to be able to happen, why the timing just wasen't right, how I was still in a state of Emotional Fuckwadery over my breakup. We talked all night. At some point around three in the morning I realized that I never wanted to be away from her, ever. I was overcome. We spent the rest of the night crying, holding eachother and talking about the rest of our lives.
So Yes, Virginia, sometimes it does just happen that way.
Since then . . . well, it's like I am living a whole new life. I am in the process of selling my house in Marietta and buying one here in town. I am interviewing for a new job. I just told my parrents (which went well). Constant commute between here and Marietta (just in time for the shittiest gas prices of my lifetime - ain't that just the way?).
And no time for my SG friends. Hate that but it couldn't be helped.
I am the Luckiest Man in the World, unworthy and bewildered by my good fortune.
She. She is a little science nerd who is gearing up for another dose of intense schoolin. She told me she loved me at first sight, and wasen't at all mad that it took me a while to come around. She has been through shit that would make a very jaded motherfucker blanche and come up stronger for it. She writes exquisit email. It's like I lost my damn mind.
Anyway, I should go. I want to try to read a few days back in everyones journals, catch up.
I'm sending crazy love vibes out to all -- not that you necessarily need them. But if I don't I'm going to burst.
be well,

Cat Report: Here's the cat forcast for the next several months. My two precious guys get to live with their first dog, a curious good nature fellah who loves to make friends. I predict violence and chaos.
Factoid: I currently share a room with a snake, a small consitrctor named Blix.
I hope this finds you well and good.

I waited over 5 years to replace my old PC (a Gateway P III 550 box) so I feel I earned this toy. For a while I used it for work as my intent was to use it for work and play when I bought it, but my client's policy is that I use their machine for all work. They provided it to me about 3 weeks after I bought my Alienware. That didn't bother me as much as my having bought my own laptop 5 months earlier.
I live in Marietta. let me know next time you are in town and we'll get us a few cold ones. I'll buy. Take it easy.
your journal is one of the most romantic things i have ever read.
congrats on finding love.
