It's been a long few weeks, but life is good!
Yesterday, I went hiking up in the mountains around Sierra Madre... running the trails, jumping creeks, dodging trees and just breathing in the green and the sunlight. Incredible.
I roused myself before sunrise this morning to run and hit the gym... I'm going to try to get myself ready for the Catalina Triathalon this year....

dancing half naked amidst a bunch of freaks (my kind of people) is a great way to spend the night. sleep well, everyone...
Random funny times. I met an "internet friend" today out in Santa Monica, which turned out quite nicely. Intelligent fun people are always so refreshing.
Chilling on the promenade, listening to music before she showed up, though, I got propositioned by the staff at Abercrombie & Fitch, which I was sitting out front of I guess. This girl came out, motioned for me to take...

Working from home. Design time.
More than 7 gigs of music on shuffle, and a beer by the monitor.
Sometimes, things are jus alright.

Aaaarrrrggh!!!!!
I think I need to go break something. I've dropped over 900 dollars on my car this week... to have nothing done. And I still have no working car. At least part of it is a deposit towards getting the engine replaced, but it's still driving me a bit mad, as I keep having to re-juggle priorities to move the cash around.

It was a long weekend. Not temporally, but mentally it could have been a month.
Lots of thinking. Lots of emotion. Trying to piece it all together and have it make sense has been trying, but well worth the effort.
I blitzed so much traffic this weekend that I am starting to doubt my sanity. Dive-bombing through busy traffic on a bike should not be...

you make me smile.
I look upon the image of you on your bicycle tearing through the streets in a fury.
getting inside informtion on Xmen 3 from a friend of my man's. it better be the phoenix saga, my favorite part of that whole series.
the phoenix, born of chaos and confusion with the inate emotion/reaction of survival that saw her through to the end, I loved that character as a child.
strangely reminded of "chocolate" by snow patrol.

oh and the melencoly in your voice makes me worry. I wish to see you soon. please let me know when that may be.

I'd started writing an entry, and it was wiped out... so, here it is without the well thought-out language.
Life is good, but tough. I'm going on willpower and obstinance. I haven't been sleeping, and my thoughts are fractured as a result.
I'm moving a lot of things forward. I'm learning a lot. I danced my ass off last night, and spend some time with...

I am hanging in there... and decently healthy.
Handled all the phone calls, some entertaining stories at that. Also helped Shannon pick up her car today - it is so cute, and she deserves that happiness.
Still broke but hey, I have my car and 3/4 of a tank of gas. Two interviews tomorrow night and another job possibility to call in the AM. my stepdad goes in tuesday for the last time - hopefully.
I just want March to be here so the astrological chaos will end. in theory, that is the reason for all the shit that hit the fan. At least I am dealing with the things I have been putting off...
oh and I am off the market. yeah.
sounds like you are handling your shit as well... I hope all is well and I will call you later this week.
much love.

let me know if you got your email today. i was not sure.
Just got back from capoeira... great class tonight. Small, but kicking. Pavoa and Chicago really play well together, and work well as a teaching team. I was surprised to learn that some of the guys from capoeira were playing around onstage at the Grammy's last night - they were playing capoeira along side some breakers behind Gwen and Eve. I caught a pic of some...

vday blues... i be singing.
but all is well that ends well - the D has responded with keen interest is the discussion I prompted with the email.
the C is gone, he replaced me with what was my replacement last night which I came to discover after driving accross town to drop off John and then BAM! opened the gate and there is her car.
I guess he could not be alone on vday. and it hurt me too. fucking great.

Ahhhhhh!!! Health!
It's funny, the things you don't know how much you appreciate until they're gone.
But, damn... now that I'm back, I feel like I can move mountains!
So... I think I will. Starting with the mountainous load of strangeness that I call my life.
Definitely time to get that moving again. I'm getting my body back under control for starters (I lost 10...

I really want to go to that party. Need a DD? the drinking is still down for the count...
also thank you but the exposure will prove good either way. face it, I am a glutton for punishment.
cheers to the new music. Javert is burning me new music off his iBook. I so want one. how is the crystal method one?
real estate rules, you would like it I think, I love that you are a dork too - you make me smile at the mere thought... and the health thing is good too. Rock out for me.
got the new Muse cd. heard the new Mars Volta? is it any good do you know?
