This, from almost a year ago:

8 Sept. 2008 That feeling rises up in my chest, like I cant stand the sight of my dirty apartment, like I cant get up another morning and go to work, like its just not working anymore and I keep thinking, this is not what Im like, this is not what I do, but it is, it is what...

catdad:
Thanks. The transition back has been nearly perfect, aside from my sleep pattern getting fucked up last week. My body migrates to sleeping from about 2 or 3 until 10 or 11 when I don't maintain my normal routine. I've slept poorly the last two nights. I have never been on vacation and come back to NO new projects waiting, usually with a close deadline. And no voicemails to return. Pretty amazing. And the boss is out of the office until Thursday. Bonus!

Once in a while, naps make me feel like crap. But most of the time, yes, divine is an appropriate word. Especially with a kitty or a few nearby.

the intimacy of these words reveals the power of journaling as a way of keeping track of our complicated multiple selves as we move through the world

this reminds me of a haiku I wrote:

trembling wild again
reborn into the moment
murmured sang selves

thank you for sharing this murmuring, this singing of yourself

it feels like you have been through a difficult period - writing it makes it a little less terrible and more comprehensible

for a brief time I wrote down my life as I was struggling with (and continue to struggle with) manic depression

perhaps I will share some of it with you if you are interested

i'm doing laundry and listening to my ex's album. it's really good, and i like it, despite myself. in fact, each song kind of breaks my heart a little.

just when i think i can't live on my own, i somehow find the energy to do the dishes and take out the trash and i look around and the place looks halfway respectable. i find...

Happy almost Bday! My Grammy taught me to needlepoint when I was little and I found some really cool books at the library a while back with cool ideas. I have an iron on pattern book with some cool vintage and retro designs. I finally got a while flowing summer skirt and going to do a mexican dancer margarita themes. So exciting! I have to go clean my room first though, everthing is crazy from moving. Talk to you later.

then i began to dream of my past lovers. they came to me one by one, each night, a parade of ended affairs. they loved me and they left me, again, each morning, and i woke, as usual, alone.

the world turns and returns. love to the gut, to the gutter. straight, no chaser.

sometime i'll tell you a story about that.

the only cure...

Hey, it was nice to meet you today, hope you come around to some more of the SGPDX events smile
mistersatan:
Lump me in with the idiots above. It was great meeting you, regardless. And you were wise to move your purse so I didn't go through your shit. I found cherry-flavored condoms in Erika's. blush

october is hard for me. it always has been. oh, it's beautiful, of course. all blue and gold, all bright and dying, all falling and fallen. i don't know what it is, exactly, but it's so beautiful it makes me want to die. it's too much -- the world surpasses itself, and i can't stand it. my heart tries to burst out of my chest...

Heh... well, it's more of an excuse to say hi. I'll likely be in town near the end of the month for an Epic Adventure. Coffee?

i finally met Venice. we drank deceptively strong fruity martinis and got a wee bit silly drunk. i hope she can come out to play again soon. she's lovely.

i have a long list of things to do...vacuum, paint the bathroom, change the oil, write to my grandmother.

i'm drinking tea and looking at naked girls. you know, this site has changed and all,...

Good to hear from you! Sounds like you're doin' well. I think I need to take a writing course. When I do think of something to write about I tend to rely too much on metaphors for description, I need to let myself go all Hemingway or even Faukner, although I can't stand run on sentences but then, I am terrible at using commas so I'm part way there.

a few abra tidbits:

i have entered the corporate world of finance and accounting. i wear pantyhose and shuffle other people's money around all day.

thank you to my friends who have let me sleep on their floors and couches. particularly elleseven, who is adorable and always smells good.

love to suntlacrimae, who i missed hanging out with this weekend.
