several room mates of mine, both past and present, are moving on to self-perceived greener pastures: new apartments, new roommates of their own and even new cities; i am genuinely excited and happy for them and i look forward to warming a house or two in the near future.

do you know that people have not one, but three hearts? metaphorical of course, but very simple. the first heart is the one you show to everyone. the second you show only to your family and close friends. and the third is the one you share only with yourself ( Read more... )

my dad is leaving saturday for atlanta and he said he's not coming back for father's day to my chagrin. they say no man is an island, but i think my father sure comes close. he's pretty self-motivated for everything he needs, wants, etc; so father's day, his b-day and x-mas are really the only times i get to give back to him. mind you with small, ( Read more... )
