saw the band Daikaiju over the weekend. they were not playing anywhere near me but they were playing in the same city where the girl lives.

she works nights. usually 4 PM to midnite.

thinking about it. is it worth a five hour drive, ten hours round trip for an overnight to see a gig that the girl won't even be able to go to?...

Spaghetti. Diced onion, ground pork, diced mushroom, diced garlic, sun dried tomatoes, fresh basil.

in nineteen days she'll be here.

edmea:
Yummy 😋
userpoets:
it truly was yummy. as a general rule, anyone who shows up at my door will be offered a home cooked meal. and in nineteen days all i want to do is give her the best bit of relaxation i can; homemade meals, bath bombs, social events. i want her to be as happy as she can.

so I own a bed again. and i feel like barney stinson. I haven't suited up or told two hundred lies to bed gullible women, but i have a queen sized bed and only one pillow.

my fellow HIMYM fans will get that.

this is finally...

this is a position of great unfamiliarity.

the love is new.

the trust has been building for seven years.

does her crazy match my crazy, or are we just comfortable enough with each other?

in the end, if we're both happy, does it matter?

chadiousxvi:
No, it doesn't. If you're talking about what I believe you are, well, I find myself in a similar situation as of late. I'm finally letting myself feel for a friend (one I've had for nearly 20 years) the true feelings I have for her, feelings that I've been denying to myself for ages, and am in unfamiliar territory as well. For me, I don't know if it will work out, but for you? If true friendship can transition and survive to love, I would say not to question it, and to embrace it with as much passion as you can. It isn't everyone who finds love in this way, and those few I've met who have have always been the happiest I've found.

29 more days until i see her again

i count down because otherwise there is just the monotony of life. it is a good life, but it is the same every day.

working. cooking. reading. writing. i can create entire continents in my head and on paper. i can write settings and conversation that flow like water, in some cases the things that emerged from...

Comfort food part 2.

Pizza, homemade crust, homemade tomato sauce. Mushrooms and pepperoni.

profound thought of the day -

don't be eye candy. be soul food.

Such a good phrase! Amen❤

when it all comes down to it, all we have is each other.

there is no reason to not treat everyone you meet with love and respect.

So true, thank you for posting this.
