Memorial Day Weekend

May 29th, 2007

Spent the weekend with K. It was fun, but a little nerve-wracking. She re-introduced me to some folks I went to high school with, and it involved being surrounded by a lot of people I really didn’t know, and that always leaves me a little flaky. Good people, however. It feels strange when I’m around [...]

Been Busy

May 25th, 2007

I know, it’s not much of a thing to say after being out for so long. Work has been steadily turning up the tension for next week’s release. In summary, nothing much has particularly changed the last couple weeks. Still seeing K. on the weekends. Still moody, psychotic, and self-obsessed. Paying bills. Feeding cat. Rush [...]

Movement VIII

May 13th, 2007

The differences between who I am when I’m with different people, or even just alone, are confusing; the way I feel and [...]

Edging

May 9th, 2007

I’ve been gradually becoming more aware now of my weaknesses; my self-centered thinking, my insufficient willpower in the face of physical pleasure or emotional safety, my tendency to put off the necessary until it’s too late, or (alternatively) bail early on things that could be good. Aware, but I still don’t know what to do [...]

Movement VII

May 6th, 2007

Thirty minutes out, an hour sitting and reading at a restaurant, then forty-five minutes back. Google Earth estimated round trip 3.14 miles.

97°

May 2nd, 2007

I want past this. Through it, beyond it, whatever. I want out. Yesterday was okay. My first day of being a real, full-time employee instead of a contractor. Dropped by the apartment on my way to Cookeville, discovered that I’d left the AC off. I gave Shada a bit of fresher water, cracked the windows [...]
