I want to be close again, close as it pertains to physicality. It has been a long time. I've avoided it for months now...so many that it's probably closer to a year. And up until now, I really haven't noticed it. I've been consumed in my own life and making things progress and wading through the massive amounts of water that have flooded my life.

I have decided that I really love Cool Hand Luke. So much, in fact, that I think they now hold the crown for my favorite band ever. Everything they write feels so much like something I feel and wish I could write myself. The lyrics are amazing, and the music so intimate. I got the chance to see them in concert in Lake Jackson about a month ago. ( Read more... )

Were the whole realm of nature mine,
that were an offering far too small

When temperature climbs, pulse rises, sensation heightens... A heavy breath transposes into an ( Read more... )

I've been really emotional lately, and I don't know why. Things have set me off, and I have gone to extremes in my emotions. A lot has happened this week, and I'm guessing it has to do with it all happening at once. But more tears have been shed this week than I think any other time in my life...and most of them have been for no reason or something ( Read more... )

The trip was good. I got to relax and really just forget about everything. I know the purpose of the trip was to go skiing, but it was really so much more than that. The ride up there, the ride back, and the ride through a crazy blizzard...it wouldn’t have been the same without them. On the way up there, we stopped in Roswell, NM...which is the ( Read more... )

I've gone on vacations before, but this one I feel like I need. I need to get away...from work, from my house, from all this drama, from Houston. I need to clear my head and have some time to refresh and renew. I'm really looking forward to this.

When you open your eyes ( Read more... )

Everybody else is doing it, and now I'm totally interested.
