The Opening Act Of A Cheap Romance
To use a somewhat antiquated bit of lingo:
Yippee!
I just had a really nice date! And very grown-up-like, to boot! (Sadly, most of my dating experience hasn't much evolved past those awkward high school couplings that most people strive to get past).
Had lunch at a fantastic cafe, and enjoyed very inteeligent, and equally laid-back and confortable conservation, with a really cool girl. Of course, the actual chance of budding romance is somewhat slim (said femme is moving to Seattle in a few months). But I've come to appeciate spending time with nice people, and all that. Plus, I think she digs me... :)
....
What a whirlwind weekend. Got drunk for the first time in a while...kissed a few people I probably shouldn't have...played the shittiest (albeit the most wild and carefree) rock show I've ever been a party to...missed the Orange Blossom Festival...stood in the rain...and got to spend quality time with a good friend. Of course, now I'm on 3 hours of sleep. But it was definitely worth it.
....
It's funny how many people I know have such transitory lives. They are completely comfortable with moving fro0m place to place, oftentimes only living somewhere for a few months. Making new friends, leaving old ones behind. Just tryijg to find their hoem in the world.
Just the thought makes me insecure. I have extremely strong nesting insctints. A strong support group of friends, and an enviorment I feel comfortable and where I belong, are unquestionable requirements for me.
Am I too rigid? I know I need to make a jump into the unkown myself soon, and give up alot of the security I've built for myself...'m not as much of a "fly by the seat of your pants" kinda guy, as much as I'd like to be. Maybe these people have the right idea; maybe it is all about the journey.
I think I get attacthed to things to easily...
Okay. Sorry. Enough fo that.
....
PS - Does anyone know if Coachella tickets are really sold out yet?
