Life Suggestion: Listen to your body.
I talked with Dominic earlier. (Right before I made the prior post) I explained that I had met someone here and it didn't feel right to me to fly to Salt Lake City and meet him with dominos set in motion here. He was understanding.....and honestly so, I think. We talked some about a boy he was interested in his neck of the woods, but that he was turning out to be an asshole. Comments about most men being assholes.
So who is my local mystery guy? Yeah.. well.. he's in hiding, recooperating. Feels like he had a blow to the heart and only time will settle the rupture. I'm in no hurry.
I just had a wild idea. With my time off... I could drive up to Seattle. There's a calling to go there soon. I feel a lot of pain still from Marthalee, but I know of no way other than being around someone to help alleviate that. Some people are sponges for the mental clouds that surround others. Remember to squeeze.
Monday night, Eddy & I went into Laguna Beach and hung out. The Koffee Klatch wasn't all that exciting, but Main Place sure was. We ran into Javier and someone he was out with and had drinks until the bar closed. It was karoke night. Many beautiful voices and--oh wow-- a couple of really gifted tone deaf people. Javier sang Sir Mix Alot's "Baby Got Back."
In observing people's actions, it's pretty evident when someone is having a lot of sex that they're doing it as a means to cover something else up. I've heard the argument made that some people just really like sex and that's what it's all about, but that's absurd. Most of us like sex... and with few exceptions and/or traumatic experiences... most of us like having a lot of sex. Even the Samantha's among us are nursing a patch that eventually wears out. I would like to say it's simply my observations of youth, but it isn't. It's a condition of humanity, but of course I see it most prominently in those that I spend time with.
I haven't seen my mom since Philip was in town. Going through some family pictures I thought of my idea for an extended family online project. Must contact Shirley. I need addresses to contact everyone.
I'm excited that in about seven hours I will be driving a car. My car.
