While you were all trying to figure out forearm vs. leg (it’s forearm), or believing that only women could be shit-talkers (grown men can act like gossip girls too), I am preparing for the return of “HIMYM” and “Big Bang Theory.” I need myself a brilliant geek, me thinks. And perhaps a Whopper with cheese.
I overkilled on beer and music and dancing and enchiladas this weekend. Somehow I survived with minimal hangover symptoms, and arrived everywhere I planned to be: a Kenilworth/PIB-Lakewood night o’ fun, volunteering early for the Hemophilia walk, tattoo appointment, Blues & Brews Fest at Wendy Park, then homemade enchiladas and Mexi-feast for my mom’s birthday.
All-in-all, a great weekend blended with friends, “potentials” and family. Oh, and my mother rolling her eyes at me about my tattoo. Just the same look I received when I was 16 and inked my first. Some things never change, but some things do…
I have had a rough year emotionally, internets. With family death and my sister leaving for AZ and break-up(s) and fake moving in with boyfriends and then moving out and stressful financial situations, I often wonder how I still have a straight head.
At the forefront of my current sadness, one of my closest friends has made the decision to move to Denver. In two weeks. She is completely irreplaceable, and even though our friendship will never die, I’m left feeling an extreme emptiness about the whole thing. Like, I can’t lose her too! I’m sure many people feel friendships are an extension of family — and with my own being scattered and mildly detached from my life — it is just very difficult dealing with the separation. Endings and new beginnings — seemingly the recurring cycle. I have made some new friendship connections as of late, which both excites me and fulfills a void.
I suppose as a Taurus, I should resent change. As an earthen sign, I crave stability. I guess it depends on the particulars. Change could be exciting. Change can be overwhelming. Frankly, change can suck and destroy you, or propel a process in affecting your life to a positive direction. I hope to have the latter.
But, excuse me while I research methods of contorting myself into suitcases or moving boxes.
