I started a new journal in honour of the fall season. If you really want to read my new journal, just give me a call, and say Ekky-ekky-ekky-ekky-z'Bang, zoom-Boing, z'nourrrwringmm.

I'm having a great time in Michigan, though I do miss people back home! And Renee, I am really looking forward to spending time with you when I get back home ( Read more... )

My friend Missi and I seem to have uncannily similar minds. We always seem to springboard off each other's thoughts and inspirations, and we often seem to know what the other is feeling. A fellow INFP, she understands intuitively my acceptance of paradox, and that what I express, mostly, is not solid judgement, but fluid feeling. A few months ago ( Read more... )

I visited Jean Francois Menard a couple months ago at Mass Academy. What an incredible character he is, full of life and mirthfulness, and occasionally merde, but in a delightful way.

I have a problem I'd really like to get to the bottom of, because it does nothing but make things hard and complicated, for me and those I care about.

A few months ago my beloved cat, Minkis, passed away. I have had two cats over the course of my life that I would call a "wise old soul," the sort of cat who, when you dream about him, talks to you in English, and is the most understanding of friends. Minkis, still not an old cat at 10, was becoming that for me. He was my sleeping mate. I felt ( Read more... )

I *will* write more often, and keep up with diaries, as soon as I have some time. Right now, I am in North Carolina with Elizabeth and having an incredible time. I love it around here and in the Blue Ridge Mountains. We've been back and forth between Asheville and her school (Lenoir-Rhyne) in Hickory. We've gotten every kind of weather lately, ( Read more... )
