i am in a much better state than when i last posted in here.
my hormones are better in balance,
and things are starting to align for the better.
my finances are improving (slightly), which is great;
great enough, in fact, to stand alone.
i bought a few books the other day --
Self-Help by Lorrie Moore (a book doug recommended to me),
50 Jobs Worse Than Yours (#2 being "Afghani Travel Agent")
a book of 20th-century world poetry, and
20 Love Poems and a Song of Despair by Pablo Neruda. what.
i read one of the poems to a boy last night who asked to hear it.
he's all sorts of adorable. i'm developing a pseudo-crush.
well, i've had a pseudo-crush.
it's not a real crush, just a "if his parents would've conceived 4.5 years earlier, we could've had a shot" crush.
(yes, he's a young'n.)
he's universally recognized as the nicest boy on campus.
AND:
he gives the best hugs.
just an observation.
i have many of these pseudo-crushes;
mostly on dudes who are so darling,
they deserve girlfriends who are far more darling
than i could ever be.
and i'm really, really okay with that.
i can admire from afar.
i miss being sappy.
my heart has been weak from being out of love.
i need to remedy this, and quickly.
the weather is warmer,
and i'm starting to swell with happiness.
what a brilliant time of year.
what a brilliant way to end the Paschal lent.
agh!
brilliant!
Christ is in our midst!
