My apologies for that last whine. It was precariously close to that pitiful "i just want to be loved, is that so wrong?" attitude that we all find so tremendously appealing. You'd think I'd know better, huh? Who says wisdom comes with age? Really, I'm still learning exactly what my place is in the overall scheme of things. I'm the goofy/ ( Read more... )

I know I'm merely pleasant. And I know I'm nothing special. But I am so very tired of being an afterthought.

I know I probably don't carry much clout with God or with you, my various LJ friends, but if you could spare a moment and say a prayer/send a good vibe to Ida and to Corie & her family, it'd be much appreciated.

I'm sure all of you were expecting a treatise on the downfalls of getting older, but I shall spare us all. Simply put, I had a nice birthday. My streak of One-Meeting-Wonders was broken not once, but twice on the same day! I had maybe my third ever visit at work AND I went to a show with somebody. And I got 2 cards. How bout them apples?

So cake was had tonight and fun was had by all. More or less. I still would rather have people invite me somewhere than give me 'stuff,' but I shan't complain. It's interesting to receive 'housewares' when really, you have no right owning anything of the sort. I just realized I did not make a wish ( Read more... )

I was in New York just the week before, celebrating 30 years of Michael Jackson's solo career along with Marlon Brando, Liz Taylor, Britney Spears, N Sync, and a Madison Square Garden-ful of people. Not liking the idea of me traveling to NY by myself, my mom suggested that she, my dad, and my sister (who had JUST gotten her wisdom teeth taken out ( Read more... )

Happy Birthday maniclise!!! Welcome to the 20's. Without a doubt, you and I have had the most communication of all my LJ friends. I'm glad about that, because you are good stuff. As soon as you learn that, you'll be aiight. At times, I'm a little worried that you have the potential of ending up like me, but I promise you that you're better than that. ( Read more... )

This has been one of the most surreal weeks of my life. And yet, with that knowledge, I hope to embark even further into surrealism soon with my second ever LJ meeting. Will I ever learn? The answer is apparently "No." I'll get to the marital festivities in just a moment. First I have to write briefly about Natalie. One of my oldest online ( Read more... )

So as you all know, I completely bought into this American Idol thing. I thoroughly enjoyed the ride and I hate to say it was among the few highlights of a very disappointing summer. At its best, it reminded me how much I enjoyed 'vocalists.' Sheesh, I even enjoyed the British dude who won the Euro-version of the show. Something's going on with ( Read more... )
