I wish that I could tell him how much I miss him (the guy I was seeing up in Portland, that is - I'm done missing that other person I used to miss). I wish I could send him a text message or something saying "I miss you." But we never exchanged a single word about how we felt toward each other, so it doesn't seem appropriate. And I'm too afraid ( Read more... )

Last night's chicken dinner party was a great success, despite neither Cora nor I having heard from anyone until shortly before dinner was ready. All told, six bottles (including one magnum) of wine were consumed. We were very impressed with ourselves. There was singing and playing of the piano, and of course, Settlers of Catan - which of course, ( Read more... )

In the months after Ben broke up with me, I, like most people who are dumped, I imagine, felt like pretty much the most unattractive, undesireable human being to ever walk the face of the planet. I'd go out with the other interns (all of whom were girls), and they would all get hit on all evening by their preferred gender, while I was blatantly ( Read more... )

Somehow in my childhood, I managed to never watch Muppet movies. For those of you who have had any glimpse of my various childhood cultural influences, this may come as a surprise, because they fit unbelievably neatly into all the other slightly bizarre favorite entertainments I had. However, this evening I watched The Great Muppet Caper, only the ( Read more... )

Had an excellent Fourth of July, during which much beer was drank, a barbeque was had, tea was drank, croquet was played, a dinner party was had, and fireworks were watched (although they were largely hidden behind a cloud of their own smoke... still cool, though. I like exploding things). And yesterday watched the first Hellboy again with Allie to ( Read more... )

So Zombie Kickball was just as awesome as one might imagine. We didn’t actually play, but we did dress up and mill around. It was certainly highly entertaining to watch. By the end, the match was mostly live kids vs. undead adults, which was quite amusing. My favorite zombies were the guy with a motorcycle helmet with a shovel stuck into it (who at ( Read more... )

Oh man. So I’m (most likely) going up to Portland next weekend (the 27th-29th) to visit people (since now that I’m going to DC I’ll NEVER SEE ANY OF THEM EVER AGAIN) - and it just so happens that the Sunday of that weekend is ZOMBIE KICKBALL DAY!!! Yes, that’s right, a bunch of people dress up as zombies and play kickball! I am so there ( Read more... )

I got offered (and accepted) the Artistic Fellowship at the Shakespeare Theatre in DC.... I'll be starting work there July 21st, so I'll probably be moving on the 19th or 20th. Right now I'm up in New Hampshire with the gorgeous Letisha, but as of Wednesday I will be in the Boston area until around the 13th of July (for the most part - I'm probably ( Read more... )

It’s been over five months. A month and a half since I last had any contact with him.

How long will this take?

I wonder if he thinks of me as often as I think of him. I wonder if I even cross his mind, or if he’s too occupied with other people, other things.
