I accidently fell asleep for about six hours... it totally shifted my expectations for what I had planned to do and when, but man- the sleep I just woke up from was the kind of sleep that the living rarely get to indulge in. I was organizing my laundry to start washing, and had just started pulling the sheets off my futon, when BAM suddenly I'm ( Read more... )

I wonder, if you felt pretty good about yourself and the person you had become, until you realized that although you were getting good at being the person you were, it wasn't really who you had an interest in being? The moments you live build gentle lines of character that define your face, your movements the contour of your body, and your thoughts ( Read more... )

Today's been really good so far, I made breakfast for my roommates (I had to eat twice so I could eat with both of them as they were ready respectively), studied medical anthropology for a few hours (which I feel like intellectually i've made a sort of homecoming with this subject), had lunch and a long break with two very old friends...

I realized just now that ever since the last time one of my dishes exploded spraying flaming glass everywhere- going from being something solid in my hands into a hail that cut and burned whatever it touched... in the back of my mind is a concern that any pot or pan that gets too hot will also explode. such a silly thing to fear, I don't think that ( Read more... )

The sun is out, and though I don't see any puddles outside, I imagine the snow is melting ( Read more... )

I dreamed some days ago that I was guiding some people to a safe place I knew of among some rocks. We weren't sure if anyone was around, but we were sneaking so that we wouldn't be seen. One of them went out into the open, and some starving wolves saw us. Weak and hungry, one of them hopped an old barbed wire fence and approached us ( Read more... )

I've decided to give this another chance- I came to try to start a new journal with the same name since it's been sort of bothering me to think that anyone else could be running around with my moniker, and since it was still here i'll take it.
