Re: Me

Life is lovely of late. Well, okay, work sucks, but that's hardly new. Outside of work, things are lovely.

I have friends here. It usually takes me about three years or so to make friends in a place, then I enjoy them for a year, then I move. I'm in the enjoying stage now. The Candy Formerly Known as Eye had a birthday party last night that I went to, and it was just so much fun. The very best party I've been to in a hundred years. We ate guacamole and watched Scrubs and painted bananas and just had the most fantastic time. Yay for parties.

It's almost spring now and I'm psyching myself up for gardening. This year, there will be tomatoes and strawberries and flowers and herbs. Not sure what, if anything, else. I absolutely have to figure out how to keep those evil fucking squirrels out of my tomatoes.

The Candy Formerly Known as Eye will be moving in soon or eventually. Once he sublets his apartment, we begin a giddy life of roommatehood until he moves on. Oh, we have such grandiose plans. I think we will be good roommates. My top goal is to not neglect to pay the electric bill as I did when living with Ty, and thereby avoid having my power turned off. While it can be more fun than one would think, it's probably better to avoid entirely.

There. A bit of my very dull but surprisingly satisfying life.

Where do I find this "satisfying life" thing you speak of?

I highly recommend a weekend withoutt power! It's a great way to get to know the Candy Formerly Known as Eye as a roommate. Do you really want a roommate who doesn't appreciate having a Madeleine L'Engle book or two read to him?

Out of curiosity... does the Candy Formerly Known as Eye read your blog?

Kent -- Surprisingly, one finds it in Chicago.

Ty -- That's a valid point. I'll stop paying the electric bill immediately.

Montana -- Nope, although he knows it exists and that he is occasionally mentioned on it under a nickname I don't want to share with him.
