My hiatus to life and silence on its happenings is officially terminated. Things are going swimmingly well and everything seems to not only be falling into place, but settling quite nicely and feeling right. The process of reconstruction it's taken for me to reach this point is of little consequence, but things are, daring to jinx it, better than ever.
Strange as it sounds, I really do enjoy my job. I haven't had sex in three months and, honestly, don't want to. I'm dating, very casually, and not doing anything except kiss my boys and enjoy their company. I'm taking things slow: moment by moment, breath by breath, sensation by phantasmagorical sensation. I've fallen in love again, and it looks good on me. Thankfully, the object of my affections remains elusive, though tumultuous as ever (life, of course), and the whirlwind romance in which we've engaged is rising steadily.
As for the men in my life of late, they are, admittedly, rather numerous and of little to no import. Though on an amusing side note, David went swing dancing tonight, and watching him hit on a girl who is not only sucks at dancing, but is also unattractive, is quite possibly one of the most amusing things I've seen in recent memory, particularly considering the genuine jubilance of my existence.
Anyway, I'm rambling, and that's retarded. So for now, sweet dreams.
Oh, on a parting note, some quotes:
"Happiness is a form of courage." -Holbrook Jackson
"We must laugh before we are happy, for fear of dying without having laughed at all." -Jean de La Bruyere
"In order to have great happiness, you have to have great pain and unhappiness - otherwise how would you know when you're happy?" -Leslie Caron
And most notably... From Mr. Tolstoy...
"If you want to be happy, be."
