The bad news
this past month has been kind of... trying. not in a terrible way, but my luck has just been so down and out for the count. i'm not sure when it started, but i guess it was when i sprained my finger playing in the girls bball league which is still has another month to heal... after that... i dont' know. i got some weird cough, couldn't tell if i was sick or just had really bad allergies. after the second week of coughing i pulled something in my rib. thus just not being able to play basketball became not being able to exercise completely. it's kind of sad.... i had that one terrible interview... i had a few uncomfortable interactions concerning the workplace, saturday when i met up with korina, the rib thing was hurting sooo bad. oh! and a friend of mines hit his beautiful truck on the gueard rail the day that it rained... thursday i think it was... also, there seems to be a heavy prresence in the air.. many or my friend have drama at the moment, as if the golden apple of hera and aphrodite was thrown amongst us....
The good news
the incredibles was such an amazing movie. i very, extremely, highly recommend it. ;) God must be trying to tell me to slow down or something. With all these injuries comes a lot a free time, so i'm thinking about getting back into the arts. painting, drawing, reading, just creating things... Last night i went to the chevelle concert with a coworker. his wife was sick so he had an extra ticket. the lead singer reminds me of jimmie fallon. although the band is pretty good, i was more enthralled by the openers, vendetta red, but more so enraptured with dredg. i like this new blend of metal with melody.. sort of a pop rock.. a lot of people don't like it, but many more so do. the concert was awesome... reminded me of 10 years ago....how time flies!
randomi totally didn't know... i found out that after october and through the sring you're not supposed to water your lithops plants as they start to form a new single or pair of bodies inside the ones they have now.

I wasn't really that tired, but he was having a bad day so i wanted to drop by and try to cheer him up. But when I told him i was coming over, he told me it probably wouldn't be a great idea... you know how those naps aren't real naps because when you're napping with someone, it's hard to actually be resting since you're always worried about the other person and your bodies have to coordinate... i sighed. i came over anyways to tuck him in until he fell asleep. i tried to reason that i would slip away as soon as he was asleep. I stroked his back lovingly and rhythmically, losing myself in the repetitive motion and hunking curves of his shoulders. i didn't want to, but i tried to slip away when that moment came. as i slinked off the tired mattress he felt the movement and turned to look at me. we locked eyes for only a split second, as recognition of my intention was easy to read in my expression. as i turned to run away, he reached around me and pulled me closer, his face nestled in my neck. i knew i was home...
