Been a while.

Jun 08, 2007 00:53

I've been away for a while.

I had a wonderful few months in Cambridge (MA, not UK); I got to meet a number of very nice people and got to sit in on some impressive classes. It was a generous taste of the life I always wanted and will always want. Now, it's over and I'm back.

The rest is less pleasant.

"I don't know how long. Items I'd not seen for just months brought me back to times and events, which I'd locked away. Most of them, I wouldn't want to ever remember again ( ... )

On "common room day", we can ask for "Before I Kill You Mr Bond", and then can give us Candyland.

Truth is, I still see myself as a vile, childish fool, though a little sophisticated. Yay Sophistry! I just try to not hurt anyone; that's pretty much the limit of my emotional maturity.

Just saying that I read it, and I'm thinking of you.

you and lis keep coming to mind, and I keep neglecting to call. Next time I see you on AIM, I'll bug you about hanging out sometime.

Which Atari? 800, 400, 800XL, console? If it's not a console, do you play Mule?

I was trained at a young age that if I write anything in private, someone will read it and use it against me (thanks sis). It makes me hesistate, though I know it to be a useful tool.

I was pretty careless with my diaries; halfway through freshling year my stepmother ran across a page of "fsck you jean just fsck you" scrawl. Whether it fell off the computer desk when she tripped into it or whether she picked it up (was in full sight) was immaterial; it didn't exactly make her look good to publicly hold it against me.

Last night I was lookign through one of the delivered boxes. Since they're in with the shabbat candlesticks I had in college I have to assume that's when I owned the earrings I'm wearing today. But I have no memory whatsoever of these or the other few earrings I brought home with me last night.

I'm thinking of you, too. Remember you don't need an admission pass to hang out with folks here.

dusc June 13 2007, 17:46:28 UTC

Thank you. Hanging out with folks there is always a good thing.

Oddly, this does hit on one of my idiosyncrasies. I kinda can't seem to go any place private without invitations; kinda like a vampire. Even with friends from the prior century, I have a hard time inviting myself, and still need them to ok it.

I guess I'm saying invitations will probably have me showing up; otherwise, I'm too shy to just drop by.

Yes, I figured as much! I've been hell of busy (I haven't even seen the little one since I last saw you). But after the Outriders ride this weekend, things will quiet down. And I will keep you posted. Lee needs to get his dork on, after all.

No, you are not the only one. The same thing has just occurred to me today.

dusc June 13 2007, 17:36:30 UTC

Sorry to hear you're going through it too. I hope it wasn't this posting.

iridescence544 June 14 2007, 17:07:51 UTC

No, of course it wasn't this posting. I will write more soon via gmail.
