I'm shedding my skin. My skin is peeling slowly from the fingertips, no matter how much moisturizer I put on. But more than that physical reality, which I sort of expected considering Phoenix's reputation for dry heat, there's a change in how I feel. I'm transforming in other ways too.

Apparently, I'm going to need one. I've been on a networking/dating/instant messaging site called okcupid since May of last year. I had a lot of fun with the instant messaging at work, before they disabled our internet connection.

Why does moving always turn into a mad scramble?  I know it's my own fault. I should have been working on packing for the last two weeks, I should have been moving things to my storage unit in my car and not waiting for the moving truck. Should have, should have, should have. Didn't. No, instead I read books, watched Bones and basically ( Read more... )

They open and they close, and I thought I was just a bystander watching, but I'm coming to the realization that if I'm not actually opening or closing them, I am choosing which to walk through.  I've been thinking about this, and I've talked with Saundra, my friend from the hospital about it. I said something once about seeing very clearly for a ( Read more... )
