Long overdue whatever post
It's been a fun night with me loosing at Agricola, my current favorie German board game. I got a terrible 26 points while my opponent got the highest score ever recorded for this copy of the game, a dazzling 51 points.
Saw an amazing video tonight at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B08bVhrcB_w. That video makes me think of Still Life With Woodpecker, a fantastic book by Tim Robbins. Love knows no boundaries. Love is the ultimate outlaw.
I'm making ass loads of typos, but I'll correct them before I release this random and toxic post to the journal world. My typing must be atrocious. I'm going to correct, cleanup, and put paragraphs into this missive before you see it. You will be spared the brunt of my creative mess. My writing is a bit raw at times. Not unlike a half squid half human child.
I'm really pleased to notice that a friend of mine has been finding some deep happiness of late. She’s been through the ringer, and she seems to be finding the good in it. I feel like that's a skill I've acquired over the last 5 or 10 years, and something I'd like to pass on. I think that NVC has been a big part of that. I feel like every situation has any number of stories, and that I only need to find the one that fits with how I want to live my life, how I want to encounter reality to make my life wonderful. Loosing my job was scary, but not as scary as I though it would be while I had my job. Although I haven't feet compelled to talk too much about my job loss until now, but I think that has changed because I found a job. It's much easier to talk about in the state of retrospection from unemployment. I was worried, but not overly so. I feel like I have enough friends family and otherwise to help me keep up with the life I want to live. Out of work with a kid and broke sounds like a scary place to be, but it wasn’t. In fact I'm a bit sad to be moving on to a place where something outside of my bride and lovely little daughter will be taking up a lion's share of my time.
I've been reading The Kite Runner to my little girl. I hope it’s not too scary for her. There are some pretty horrifying parts of that book. The main character loosing his father to cancer seems like one of the more tame parts of the story.
Ok, nite-nite.
