Had Rob and Daniele over for dinner tonight. Was very fun. Made this great lentil soup I have the knack for, before which we had hot italian bread and salad. I put together the whole thing myself, which was hard work, and I was very proud of myself. Then we watched a few episodes of "Entourage", one of my new favorite shows. We also had Tofutti Cuties and Soy Delicous ice cream (I love vegan deserts.) It is great to see the dynamic between Rob and Daniele- so loving, affectionate, and caring. When I first met her, I didn't thing she was a match for Rob (somker, meat-eater, a little bit ore wealthy) but I realize now that those things are sort of artificial distinctions, and what is really important is the inter-personal dynamic in a relationship. And they have a great one. I adore her, and I especially adore her for him.
I read recently on her Live-Journal that Raluca and Jared are talking again, and they might get back together. At first I didn't know what to think, as a while back she seemed dead set on being independent. But, her voice sounded more relaxed, and she sounded generally happier. For that, I am really glad it happened. I hope that she fits Jared into her life now, and that she doesn't fit her life now into a relationship with Jared, if you know what I mean. If Jared has changed like she says, then good, I am glad for it. But I hope that he truly appreciates how lucky he is this time. And makes her feel loved. And respects her like he should. She deserves to be treated like the wonderful and amazing person she is. Then again, we all do! :)
My Batman novel has stalled lately. I was inspired for a while, but kind of lost it lately. I think I have the bare outlines of a story developing. It is going to be about the transition from the battle against organized crime to the battle against rogue villans (it is never really fully explained in Batman mythology.) I envision the downfall of Carmine Falcone (the fictional organized crime leader of Gotham) leading to (in a sort of causal relationship) the rise of the crazies. Sort of like the real-life dynamic of organized crime helping an area out and it suffering when it leaves. We'll see where it goes when I start writing again.
I started talking to Riley again. And I keep telling myself that i do not miss her romantically. But I do. I miss cuddling and kissing her, seeing her inquisitive goofy fun loving face, having her rub the temple of my forehead with her fingers ever so gently. I had lots of fun with her. And opened up to her alot. And let myself be with her completely. I wish she had done the same. She always put this ditance between me and her though. It is hard to explain. She is not as open as I am. It was sad. And even though we are friends now she still doesn't open up.
Interview Monday for the Civilian Complaint Review Board. It is an organization that monitors claims of police misconduct in NYC. I would be interviewing people, writing reports, doing office work, etc. Starting salary- $30,000. And medial insurance too. I hoep I get it, as then I could get an apartment, etc. I can't believe I am becomign an adult- soon I will have a abnk account and a credit card and a cell phone and bills and rent to pay. Wow. I'm growing up!
Well, that's all for now. More to come tommorow. Peace ya'll.
