i let love in

something weird is going on.

i feel comfortable singing in the car with passengers, even as they laugh at my musical darth vader voice.

well, one passenger in particular.

i met somebody last week. she asked me a question about a book, which grew into a flight of emails on music and literature, which turned into a series of long discussions on life and love and i'm not sure exactly what happened but i don't want it to stop.
sometime on the second night of talking, we had the following exchange:
'well, i've found what i'm looking for.'
'yeah, me too. does this mean we should change the status of our profiles?'
and that pretty much settled it.

i don't know how much i should gush about this right now, because i don't want to bore people to death, but i'll just say that i'm happier in all aspects of my life right now than i can ever really remember being. i'm living in a wonderful city, with a fascinating and challenging job, and the type of person that i've always hoped to meet basically struck up a conversation with me and never left.

and if the end result of all of this is that i make a fool of myself in public by singing nick cave's songs a full octave deeper than the cadaverous bastard himself does, that's a small price to pay for happiness.
