I hate to come off all judge-y (yes, that is a word in my book) but really people, going out to smoke a cigarette and chat with friends while your 7 month old infant is playing in a bathtub with water in it is not a tragic mistake - it's complete selfishness.

They leave too much open-ended cloudy communication for the recipient to interpret and are no longer appreciated. And I winced at exactly how often I feel a need to be all deep and mysterious and over use ellipses myself. I, like Kanya, need all the grace I can get.

to find the things you intended
been searching all the wrong faces
for a smile that is friendly
help me stop looking every place
and look to you to find hope
the way you're smilin on my soul
tells me the homeland is close
and so i'll wait
yes i'll wait
Lord please take me there
to a Higher Place
and all those nights
i spent down on my face
Lord take me there

i am "on vacation" until january 17
so i want to see a lot of you.
there is a wonderful man in my life named dave- long story, don't feel like getting in to it, don't feel like dealing with any possibly judgement or hurting anyone- but will talk about it if asked, gladly!
dave is leaving for training and then for iraq on january 4th.
would love for people to come to pitt.

i shall now relay the story of how the west virginian children told me they were going to vote before the elections, and why.
it was the monday before election day, and we (saltworks) had just performed a show about drugs and it's effect on a person and the Kristy O.http://www.blogger.com/profile/02182845510764459645noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6005266.post-1100454480488020272004-11-14T12:37:00.000-05:002004-11-14T12:48:00.486-05:00so, no matter how prepared i think i am....it still hurts.
i don't really want to talk about "it"
but i do want to be honest. i'm afraid...that this change will have effects that ripple through the rest of my life and relationships. maybe- not all of my relationships. but i am sad that there are people at mal-one who i now wonder if they will still be friends with me.

and she brought up a really good point....
if you see the potential in someone, and strive to encourage them to reach that potential- but- they don't see that potential on their own or don't believe it (as in the space for growth/improvement) then aren't you just controlling them with good intentions?
i'd say yes.

so, i'm going to *try* to break that trend and be honest.

i'm in canfield right now, after a week in new jersey and a few nights in nyc. i like chelsea and the gay district more than times square.

That Kelly Clarkson song, "Break Away" is stuck in my head. It has been for, about- two weeks now? But I won't go buy it because it's on the Princess Diaries 2 soundtrack.

for the next 12 months, i am a resident of Pittsburgh. Cranberry Township, to be more precise. if it's less than twelve months, i have to fork over about two grande-- so, i'm thinking it's going to be for the solid year.

i don't know when i'll have the internet up at my apartment, so feel free to email- but i don't know if i will be able to respond any time in the next couple of weeks. calls and old-fashioned mail is always appreciated though *smiles*

It all worked out. Now I just have to give them nearly a thousand dollars in two weeks, with utilities and such.
And this week has again, not been easy. I've been thinking a lot about the events of this summer, and of the "last semester" of my college career...I've been thinking about friends, about life and death...about good-byes, and their importance in my Kristy O.http://www.blogger.com/profile/02182845510764459645noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6005266.post-1091896656257381202004-08-07T12:27:00.000-04:002004-08-07T12:37:36.256-04:00And then you wonder: which was better? burning or bleeding?
I suppose this is another one of those "rhetorical" questions...
But I do still wonder (isn't that the point?).
I suppose the more I think about it- my mind keeps wandering back to the intent of a person. To "get" burned...some force outside yourself is in play...or some force within your self that you would rather not acknowledge.

i've always been pretty a pretty anti-to-do list person.

it was truly wonderful, as i was (at the time) tripped up on vicodin. i say "up" because, although vicodin is, generally, a muscle relaxer, it evidentally has reverse effects on me. in case you're wondering...the vicodin is a result of getting my wisdom teeth removed this friday past. so, vicodin Kristy O.http://www.blogger.com/profile/02182845510764459645noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6005266.post-1089687415718646962004-07-12T22:54:00.000-04:002004-07-12T22:56:55.716-04:00as i was driving to canton on saturday, i went the speed limit. in fact, i even went five miles under the speed limit, and i put all the windows down and turned up music really loud and laid my head back on the head rest and rested my right hand on the wheel to keep the car on the road...and i stretched my left hand out the window and tried to catch the sweet air as i seemed to glide down the Kristy O.http://www.blogger.com/profile/02182845510764459645noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6005266.post-1089598985008697352004-07-11T22:17:00.000-04:002004-07-11T22:23:05.006-04:00went to akron christian reformed church today.

At least, that's what I thought. Hell, I'd think anything but being here. So I get up off the cold and dirty gym floor. I've got ten minutes, and still, nothing to do. A hall to walk down, water to drink, but nothing to do.
