Back and forth

Movable Type: Hello Lizbon. Your last entry was 5 days ago.
Me: 5 days ago? No way!
MT: Way!

I've been holding off on posting till I had some photos to round it out, but I still don't have any, and I don't have much to say other than a bit of random updating.

(Blog reader: Dude, that's all you ever say!)
(Me: Well that's what a blog mostly is, isn't it?)
(Blog reader: I guess. But once upon a time you wrote us nice essays.)
(Me: I wrote one of those about 5 days ago.)

Right. Anyway.

To the tune of a cat licking herself much too loudly, I will sing you the following song of mundanity.

Some boys are teasing me. Some boys are calling me back after a date I distinctly do not want to repeat. Some boys are, well, giving me to think, or rethink. And the timing of everything is rather dreadful, as usual, and I've made a clumsy ass of myself in about six different ways in the last few days, though not in anything really irretrievable, I don't think. Just sort of ordinary clumsiness. Social clumsiness and the other kind.

Okay then. (The cat has quit washing and fallen asleep in that sudden way they do.)

I am enjoying my proximity to various aspects of my social life. I am closer to several friends. I am closer to farmers' markets. I am better placed for spontaneous fun. All good.

I find that I am a tumbling assortment of things these days, so I will give it to you straight, because that is my wont. (Not a spelling error. Look it up if you don't believe me.)

I am content, I am nervous about money, I am gleeful, I am lonely, I am curious, I am sleepy, I am pining for the beach, I am wearing legwarmers, I am in lust, I am annoyed, I am giving up on that one, he is a pain in the ass, I am suddenly attracted to another one but that may only be because he laid hands on me unexpectedly and in a gentle, appealing way that made my brain spin.
