All about my search for meaning and happiness in a world that pivots around convenience.

emotion in motion...

How do you know when you are in love?

You unexpectedly meet someone -- someone who is not normally even your "type." Yet, you are drawn to them. When you speak to them, you make sure to look into their eyes. Sometimes they talk to much -- but you find it adorable.

You lie next to that person, but you can't sleep because your heart is racing. Yet, when that person isn't there, you can't sleep. You wonder what that person is doing -- if they are thinking of you. What if they aren't? What if you are bound to crash again? And yet -- you don't care.

You're away from that person, and yet you are happy. The trees are greener. Work is funner. When you think of your future, you see that person. You can't imagine a future without them. You notice in the mirror that your face is brighter.

You speak to that person on the phone, and when the call is over, your heart hurts.

Is this love? Did I find "the one?" Funny -- I was so dead against it...

... And yet, I am still happy.

I think, maybe, this is it.

What Sunday means for cats...


Looks like a good idea, doesn't it?
My friend emailed this picture to me, and I think it is just tooo cute!

Sunday -- and all is well.

Another exciting weekend in South Texas.

So far I have done all my laundry (pretty incredible feat, actually) and I have taken out the garbage. I am presently washing my sheets. Damn. That seemed like such a productive day until I typed it in. Geez. Now it’s not even a paragraph.

I have a mad craving for something sweet. I am so close to going to the store and buying something yummy. I just don’t want to have to actually have to get dressed and make myself look presentable to do it. Don’t I suck? I’ll probably go in a minute here -- after I take stuff out of the dryer and put it away.

Classes are going well. My favorite one is the medical ethics class. I love it. It is a lot of reading, but I think it is very interesting. A lot of questions coming up, and people have very definite viewpoints. I am liking it… plus I have a slight crush on one of the students in the class with me. Just a crush – no biggie. I may never act on it. (And the guy is probably thankful for that).

As for my other classes, they are going well too. French is the same as other semesters, really. Finance is mostly all about reading the text. My public relations class seems to be pretty good, though I hardly know anyone. I also had to miss class on Thursday. I wasn’t feeling well, but I am sure everything will be fine. I dropped my creative writing class. I had to open up my schedule a bit for work, plus the “new” prof for the class wasn’t the one that was supposed to teach our class. The new Prof was nice and all, but as I was only taking the class for “fun” anyway, it just wasn’t “fun” anymore – certainly not enough for all the money I had to spend on it.

Well, that is about all that is going on.

EGADS! I don’t even have any drinks in the fridge. I guess I am going to the store. I’ll do it after “Family Guy” is over. It’s the episode that starts out like “Law and Order.”
