under skinned knees and the skid marks

So, wassup? Nothing much. Same old same old. Work, crazy family, great friends, loving bf.

My brother's confirmation party is on Sunday. We have a whopping 7 quests coming (dad, stepmum, bro's friend, sis, nieces and my bf). Good thing we like our parties small and informal. But sometimes it does royally suck to live so far from most of your relatives. A 10-12 hour drive is just insane for one small party.

My ex best friend of 9 years is getting married in August. She's 21. But being a devout Christian, she just can't live with her bf without tying the knot first. I honestly wish her all the best, yet, at the same time, I'm somewhat vaguely shocked. Okay, and to be totally and utterly honest, I laughed for a good time at the thought of their wedding night. Yes yes, if it weren't for the gutters of this world, my mind wouldn't even have a home.

Still, makes one think. 21, getting married. She'll have her degree in a few years. After that? A job, house and mortgage, maybe kids. Lord only knows if I'll ever get married. But I wouldn't have anything against the other things.

I'm slowly starting to believe that I should stop eating chocolate, raw bananas, yeast, cheese, soy, tomatoes, sugar and several other things as well. I'm just so sick and tired of feeling like hell on most days. Not eating milk or gluten has helped a lot. But I'm so far from actually being okay that it's not even funny. Thing is, I really don't need any more limitations to my diet. It's already tricky enough to eat out or with other people. I wouldn't mind living on boiled eggs, porridge and salads, but it's just not possible if one wants to have a social life.

"Does (X) Count?" What Sex Is, And Why The Question Matters is a nice read. As is Are We Having Sex Now or What? by the same author.
