i have a few things on my mind, so this blog will skip around and be largely unrelated -- haha, you've been warned!

1) W/we'll start with a funny story: i was in the student caf at my uni last week ordering an italian soda (best thing ever!) And when the clerk asked me what flavor, i answered "vanilla." (Ironically enough, it actually IS my favorite flavor.)

But the jackass had the gall to just look up at me and say, "Vanilla? Well, that's boring."

*deep ...

i just finished Kundera's "The Unbearable Lightness of Being," and this post is heavily colored by the thoughts that it sparked. (i wanted you all to know, just in case you had the silly idea that i got this deep on my own, lol)

Everyone talks about decisions as if they are the end all/be all... but are they really? Does it not "take two to tango"? In any sort of decision, i find that there has to be two parties.

examples:
(a)company offers a job
(b)you ...

So a friend calls me up Thursday afternoon; says she's had it with stressing/the world as it is at the moment/work/everything else and is planning to get away for a few days - do i want to come with her?

i don't think "hell yes" suffices, but i say it anyways.

So for the past two days, i haven't cooked a thing, haven't worked, haven't worried about shopping lists or environmental toxins or the election... and it's been beautiful

Yes, i'm already breaking my usual rule; this blog is largely about me because i feel that i need to say it on record. Don't get me wrong if this is the first time you've been to my blog, though - i'm not so innocent as to think that i'm the center of any world (my own included,) and you'll find that my other entries are much different.

i haven't been here that long, but i have met some wonderful people so far (and some not so wonderful, lol, but it's the former that i concern myself ...

In a related vein of the previous post: (and my thoughts are scattered today so bear with me)

There was a time (recent and not-so-recent) when i would beat myself up because i couldn't understand how i could live my life without believing in something. i grew up in and out of the bible belt, and unfortunately for me i came to be a bit of a cynic, so it didn't make my predicament any easier. There are days when i don't believe in the government, or God, or the worth of humanity, or ...

^ Any Muppet fans? No...? Um, yeah. Just checking.

Welcome to my first blog here. i probably won't be doing much talking about myself, unless it pertains to the subject... How does one have a non self-centric blog, you ask? Let me show you.

Do you ever find yourself just floating? i don't mean subspace, i mean being ungrounded in your day to day comings and goings. i personally am not 24/7 -- and even though i'm definitely submissive in the bedroom, i would even go ...
