long time no update.
this weekend was phenomenal. going to mini-b-day parties on thursday really extends your weekend. friday felt like saturday, saturday like sunday, sunday like monday, so now it's practically tuesday. morgan came home with me for easter weekend since she lives in NY and was nearly left a dorm orphan for the holiday. :o) i had such a great time with her -- there are a few times in your life where you meet someone and your personalities just ::click:: and with morgan it's just one of those times. we finish each other's sentence, we have the same sense of humor, we like the same music, we have the same taste in clothes, we enjoy the same food -- if we were gay we'd be perfect for each other. but we're not. i'm definitely straight and struggling with men. who isn't, right? ::shrug:: anyway, morgan fits right in with my fam, and we had a great time going around the city. i took her to ann arbor, and to northville, and the bead store, and meijer and we cooked and giggled, and dyed easter eggs. it was so splendid. we went to church together this morning. the service was so moving, i bawled through the entire thing. it was so embarrassing, but uplifting at the same time. i miss going to church, a lot. i miss god. but god loves me and it feels good. i really enjoyed the service at northridge, but when they ask you to open your pamphlet and tear about the perforated survey inside i think it's time to leave. nice to visit, but not for me.
i'm really uplifted right now. two weeks left of school, getting my schedule lined up for next year, summer courses, a potential summer love, god's love, LOVE ALL AROUND, antipasto salad tomorrow, and lunch with cook, katie's b-day on friday night, dirty south party saturday night. life is good.
i bought a book at urban outfitters this weekend (BARGAIN: 2.66 with TAX) and it's called LOVE by YSL and it's all these graphic, andy warhol inspired drawings that YSL did from the 1970's until the early millennium. he had them made into new years cards and sent them to his friends. almost every page has a quote about love next to the drawings. i really like this one:
"love takes off the masks that we fear we cannot live without, and we know we cannot live within." THE FIRE NEXT TIME, James Baldwin
