hah. it has taken 41 years for me to discover something. what that something is doesn’t much matter but for how it lends to this result.

i should have known better than to think she would give up so easily.

more and more of late, i’m being presented with the lesson that there is no discussion to be had where any participant cares more for their own ‘rightness’ than to understand the thoughts of others in relation to them.

Below are Time’s most significant SF novels between 1953-2006. The meme part of this works like so: Bold the ones you have read, strike through the ones you read and hated, italicize those you started but never finished, and put a star (*) next to the ones you love.

well, i suppose i’ve had plenty of time to catch my breath. i say this because suddenly, everything is once more changing around me.

i suppose it will sound odd, but i did something today that made me feel like life really was going to be ok after all. i bought new shoes.

i’m laughing at the title i give this post. when i explain, you will, too.

i think about you in cycles, i discover. no real initiator. no happening. no choice to do so. just happens. think about how it felt to smile for you, to you, with you. think about merry moments, peaceful moments, soft and wistful moments. think about how it was before you gave in to fear and i became angry for it.

it is not usual for me to be interested in these types of tests, but every now and then, they turn out something interesting.
