Happiness is defined by the individual.....

good books (uninterrupted)
smoking
the park especially with my friends
dancing alone in my living room
writing
making my friends laugh

not answering to anyone else
not having to "check in"
flirting indiscriminately
not giving a damn..about much

it's too late to apologize ;)

ps - i love this list. lots. i feel like we are in similar places, and they're not so bad as people tend to think.

didn't think i'd turn around & say..... sati51 January 3 2008, 17:32:58 UTC

;o) we are in similar places ma'am.... I likey.

Alisha called me last night & went on about this guy she wants me to hook up with.. all these reasons he's a really great guy (and he is, i've met him) but she's using words like sweet & in touch with his feelings & shy.. and i'm thinking... that's a lot of work.. LOL anyways...I just kept laughing & finally she's like "beth, I just want you to be happy" "oh alisha, i'm well aware that your definition of happiness revolves around another person & being in a relationship. One day you'll accept that just isn't me. And for the record, I am happy."

I don't know why people think i'm so lonely. I like myself a whole lot better when it's just Beth, not Beth and _____ . I feel healthier this way.

There's so much more to that list... but I had to get back to work.. & I didn't want to...alienate or upset anyone..

yeaaaah. i've got more than a few stories from this fall about boys who couldn't keep their emotions in check. i mean, maybe i dated women too long and had unreasonable expectations, but i thought it was supposed to be less...crazy...dating men. but no, they get attached just as easy, and just as quickly. And i end up being the jerk not calling them back as often as they'd like and having the, "hey, you're really great, but this is where I'm at..." conversation. a lot.

i feel healthier like this too. i need it like this right now. it's lovely, and i'm glad you know what i'm talking about. it's hard to explain to anybody :)
