So Like... I've Been Reading (Or Trying To)
but not commenting. because that slows me down. my life now consists of work work work frantic emails work work sleep worrying about the next 6 months and more work.
i'm actually almost enjoying it. it's the first time in my life i've ever been justifiably physically and emotionally exhausted. Pseudo McKnight has yet to make a move; i attribute this to him concentrating on his starting/maintaining his business. i haven't seen THH in almost two weeks due to unnecessary and completely un-appreciated punctuation. i will still do my end of year meme because i enjoy them and i skipped it last year.
i must say, although things seem as if they're the same this year, they are most certainly radically different.
1. me and B have argued more in the last 6 months than we have in the last 13 years.
2. the good news is that our relationship has grown/transformed and matured somewhat. i still feels she misunderstands me half the time, and i get the feeling she feels the same way. however, i think it's awesome that although she no longer wants to be considered my "Bottom Bitch" (lol that's gotta be the phrase of the year), she'll always cherish my friendship. vice versa. yadda yadda.
3. contact with the family remains minimal. this is ideal. let's keep it up.
there is more. and yet, the time. WHERE IS IT?
happy holidays and stuff to all who celebrate. and although Li aliyad thinks i'm completely bah humbug about it, i'm actually quite the opposite. life is good. i'm learning to practice gratitude with ever growing grace. i wish i could extend the inner peace and serenity i feel to everyone. too many people i love/like are out here floundering. i am too, but my confidence that everything is going to work out in unshakeable. 'cause i'm Unbreakable. and still unapologetically corny.
less than 1 week til Senator Obama's Iowa caucus. then it's New Hampshire, Vegas & Cali, i think. i can't decide if i want to be a precinct captain, or not. i may not be able to commit as much as i'd like. i can say, though, (despite Oprah and her determination to spread her insufferable disease of Puffed Up Piece of Shit-itis) that whether the Senator wins or not, our society is on the cusp of change. amazing how the current government keeps their head stubbornly buried in the sand.
2008. it's gone be some changes 'round here, man. i'm stoked.
me and my Playa Vista Library Branch Manager Dude (top row, far right) & Co-workers:
nobody told me the theme was black pants! oh, the stories of this crew. only two are missing. Crystal, my new bff, is sitting one over from me to the right. between the two of us, heaven only knows which of us will get into the most trouble, first.
i'm guessing me.
s'ok. i'm used to it. (=
