Playing Ketchup

Three months have passed since I’ve made an entry here.  Not for lack of things going on; instead, it’s because too much has been going on.  I’ve found someone who cares about me as much as I care about him, and I’m moving back to South City!

First things first: Eric and I first met back in October ‘05.  We had an amazing first date but then nothing really happened after that.  I wasn’t sure if he liked me and, as it turns out, he wasn’t sure if I liked him.  Months went by, we hung out a few times, and then he called me up on my birthday sending me good wishes.  I asked him if he wanted to go out with me and my friends the following night; he said sure, and since then, we’ve pretty much been inseparable.  I don’t want to go into much detail on the internets, but I will say that I adore him and love him very much.  (And by the by, we just passed the four month mark – making this my longest relationship in over two years.)

Next big thing: I’m moving back to South City!!  Bennie and I decided that we each needed our own space again, so I called Janie and Floyd (my old landlords) and they told me that an apartment was opening up right next to my old one.  I went and looked at it the very next day, fell immediately in love (it has a green! bathroom) and told them that I wanted it.  I’m moving in on August 12th.  Bennie also called up Janie & Floyd and he’ll be living just down the street from me, literally across the alley from Theresa.  I think this is going to work out splendidly, all of us being in close proximity to each other – it’ll be like having roommates but without the stress of actually having to live with someone else.

That’s about all I want to write for now, but I hope to keep this site updated on a more frequent basis, if for no other reason than cathartic purposes.

Happiness, Revisited

Words cannot describe how happy I am right now.

The friendship that had been put on hiatus ad infinitum ~two weeks ago is back on again. There were explanations and apologies exchanged between the two of us, and … well, I don’t really want to go into all the details, but suffice it to say that I’m grinning like Augustus Gloop when he found the Golden Ticket. Er…yeah.

I guess sometimes it takes a while away from someone or something to realize how much that someone or something brought to your life.

Missed you, B.
