lest I be unable to keep track of what has happened in my life. Back when I wrote poetry and lyrics, it wasn't hard to keep track, I didn't need a journal, I could just go back over what I had written, and BANG! there it was in black and white (or off white, damned coffee stains). Only one or two other carbon based sentient beings could translate my cryptography into life events, but I always had a record that I could descramble to remind me of what had passed before. Without those records in inexpensive composition books, written in the most expensive ink money can buy, this chronicle becomes much more important.
I've just finished up the dishes, and decided that I need a break from re-reading the "Rich Dad" series, so it's update time. I made no log in June, I just never felt like updating, not for lack of things happening. I'm finding increasingly that my current skill set is not viable to raise the capital I need to make the investments that will allow me to retire at a reasonable age (or even earn me a living that can support us beyond paycheck to paycheck). So it's back to school I go. Been looking into flight schools, might as well learn a skill that I'm going to enjoy, and will still use after my residual income reaches the point where it exceeds my earned income. I think I've found a good place to go over in the Orlando/Kissimmee area. I'll be talking to Ogre next week about funding options, as I would have to go full time and would not have enough hours in the day to do school and work. MSS supports me completely on this idea, and I think I'd not find something I'll be happier with.
Speaking of which, we just passed four months since our first kiss. I've never been so happy in my entire life. I never imagined that I could find someone who lived up to my standards, leave alone so far exceed them as she does. She takes me places emotionally that I did not know existed. I laugh at the irony of the fact that the person who is my equal mentally, emotionally, spiritually, and in sexual deviance, was one of my best friends for years, and I never saw this side of her. She has her flaws and weakness, as I have mine. Yet they compliment my strengths, visions and natures, even as her strengths compliment my weaknesses and flaws. I have loved, but never been in love, as it is a growth process, until now. She helps me grow, even as I encourage her growth. For the first time, I can see and feel a process and an expanse of emotional/spiritual evolution that I pray will continue through-out this lifetime. It gets better every day, (except when it doesn't ;) ) and I want it to go on forever.
This completes this update, time to go shower, shave and get ready for some cars and a fiend's birthday party. Tonight should be fun, will update more regularly.
