Is there a place on LJ for non-fandom related things anymore? I don't know. Every time I come back and read my f-list I find myself skipping over the 95% of posts that only relate to fandom, and caring only about the few friends I have that still post real-life things. I really don't want to let my LJ get away; it is incredibly useful and fun. I just can't help but wonder if I should let go of all of the communities I'm watching and wave a bitter goodbye to some people...
I don't know. What I do know is that the internet is losing interest for me more and more by the day. I've discovered that the real world can be pretty awesome. Graduated from University, trips across the country, dream job lined up, boyfriend...
What?
Boyfriend?
Yes. Boyfriend. Silly. We didn't start dating until after we both knew that I would be leaving, but somehow that never mattered. I don't think I have ever been this intrigued by, attracted to, interested in, amused by, or connected to anyone quite like this before. It's strange, really. The way I feel about him is different. I think it's the first time I've been in love without being codependent. I don't need him, I can live without him....I just want him, and would prefer to live with him. We're being smart about it; we aren't going to stay together when I leave. That would just be setting us up to hurt one another..plus he is convinced that I am going to find some perfect Japanese guy. I highly doubt that. At this point I can't really comprehend anyone more awesome than him, but I told him that if I do find someone better than him, he better also find someone better than me. Ahh well. We're driving up to Oklahoma tomorrow to visit his friends, then stopping in Dallas on the way back to visit mine. I get to be with him for a week solid! Not that I haven't seen him every single possible day since we started dating...
A year ago I told my mom 'I don't know why things have gone this way or why I've become so attracted to Ireland. Maybe it's fate. Maybe I really will marry one of Nancy's sons.'
Well Nancy, be careful what you wish for, you just might get it.

"Also, Nancy's son's appendix burst, and she was sooo on edge. Her sister called while she was there and she almost started crying. Then when she got off the phone she was complaining about her son's girlfriend...saying she's got the personality of a board. She specifically used the word "bland" and I couldn't help but think of Anew. Bill said "Hey. I'll take him out in Ireland and get him laid." and Nancy turned to me and said "Terra, you should marry my son!" I just kind of blinked, laughed, and tried to act like I didn't already know she wanted that. So my suspicions have been confirmed. I'm really honored that she likes me that much. Anyway, Bill then replied "Okay so Terra and I will take him out and get him laid in Ireland." DERP. What do I say to that!?!?! It really is a little weird to try and set your kids up, but I've never had much of a problem with it."
lol. Just. lol.
