Well, that was an interesting holiday. Wasn't planning on doing anything until about a week beforehand, when my mother called me up and offered to pay for my flight back home. So my birthday rolls around and, while I'm still lying in bed on that blessed day, I get my good-morning-happy-birthday call from mums, whereupon she informs me that she's going to leave it up...

Well, I aim to please (in the butt!).
koleeta:
ditto on what GangstaSwan said. Though, I'm not sure vino really counts as a food group.
Somebody at work the other day reminded me it's my birthday on Saturday. I had actually forgotten. I mean, I remembered when the month rolled around, but after the initial realization, I completely forgot.
Quarter of a century. Weird. Barely old enough to be trusted anymore.
I can't really decide if I'm going to try to do anything. My friends have a tendency to flake...

Happy Birthday, Sweetums! I hope your dinner went well. When you texted me I was very far away from my cell and didn't check messages well into the wee hours of the morning. We missed you.
Been a pretty good time lately, with the exception of being kicked off the site because I couldn't get a new bank card in time. Oh well, c'est la vie.
New apartment is coming together, slowly. Since it's on the third floor and there's never parking outside, I'm just moving things in a peice at a time. Got a bed at IKEA this weekend, which...

I've just had a date that began well, went well, and ended well. I assume, any moment now, to drop dead. It's been pleasent knowing all of you.

Don't drop dead just yet.
When I sit down across from him, the room has that smell: the smell that isn't a smell, the air, cleaned twice and polished; hanging between me and he.
When he looks at me, I can tell how much he hates me, how much he wishes it were my throat he were biting into instead of that rare steak, sawing through it, grinding against the...

Aaaaaaaaaand the fire sale on my dignity has begun: last night, I tried a speed dating event.
To be honest, it was decent. The people in charge weren't really do anything too terribly original with the concept, and the hostesses, while accommodating, also seemed incredibly tired and bored, not peppy and helpful as was sort of heavily emphasized on their site, and which I imagine...

D'oh!
jormagund:
And did you call her? 
So, it starts this way:
She's naked, sitting up in bed beside me when I wake up, feeling the blanket of morning light washing through onto me, over the covers and half of my face. She's sweating, too.
"I can't." She says. "I'm afraid."
I dig a little crust out of my eye. "Laurel? Are you still asleep?"
"Am I still asleep?" She says, and...

I still like it.

That's pretty good, John. I think the only better question is "Where am I...and where are my pants?
Also, you'd be amazed how much some accent lighting will spruce up a dark little cave. It can make it darn cozy.

Yes. This really is not a surprise.
When watching the responses of most creatures, in regards to the stimulus they are provided, it becomes remarkably clear.
Do you really doubt it?
Try it, sometime.
Just an experiment.
Provide the given stimulus.
See what happens.
It starts to make sense, yes?

Doubtless, there are those of you that have become convoluted by various Infectious memes,...

I need to find more ways to pass the time effectively.

i hear writing works pretty good for that
Yessssssssssssssssss...
well, doesn't really mean that much, anyway, right? Gods, I just keep picturing myself in the tropics, stuck there. How wonderful it would be, for most, just living each day in the sun and the sand, and making their lives there.
But I keep thinking, no. I can't. Not till I make that mark. That mark I've been scraping at for years now. That...
