I am lucky. I have nice windows in my house and on a good day, like today, I get to watch the clouds as they move over the city. (I even saw a couple of stars - how long has it been since I saw any of those!) My feet are able to carry me on a 6 mile loop around the river without too much complaint. (Running, I have never been sure of but walking, even when mixed in with running, is definitely something that I love and am comfortable with). And I'm constantly looking for more hours in my day. Touch wood.

And talking of luck, I've hit the jackpot. The mother load. So I started spanish classes yesterday and now a whole new world of random words has opened itself to me. And the cool thing is, even every day words, such as the current post's title, sound cooler and more random in espanol! Life has reached awesomeness.

And to think that just a few days ago, I had figured that the motto of my life was :
"Life, I dare you! I dare you to throw some shitty stuff my way. I guarantee you, any shitty thing you throw at me, I will find a way to make it just a little shittier for me!". Well, that still holds, I guess. It's an innate talent. Irregardless, good days are always around. Or maybe it's just the endorphins talking.

And so, I-promise-you-I-am-not-stoned'ly, to bed.

Metronome

I'm chasing after you in the gathering dusk, you're racing far ahead, fading into the sunset. Can't catch up to you, can't hold on to you, always looking back, wondering when I first lost you. And this sand in the hour glass, it's rushing fast. This river of continuum, it gushes past. The clock unwinds, the moon tugs the tides, while I'm caught in between what was and will be. So I'm letting go, I'm tired of the chase I'll find some peace in this moment's embrace. Just take my hand in yours, let's run to the daybreak and burst into this life, finally awake. Finis

It's been a good set of days. The week itself was fun, what with hanging out with folks on Wed - and before I forget, here's a shout out to "S" and "Y" for reading/pretending to read by blog and requesting to star in it ;-) - and watching "Up" the next day with the usual gang (awesome movie!). P was flying in on Friday and a few hours before his departure from O, it was decided that we would attempt to hike up Mt.Washington. As usual it was a slightly imbalanced plan. Late Friday night, I set out to pick him up from the hour-away airport. Somehow this turned into a road trip for 3 of my concerned friends. Suffice to say that there were bad jokes a plenty and some rather interesting conversation. Randomness abounds in my life. Anyways, it was around 2 am by the time we crashed and I actually managed to be up by 6.30 am the next morning. By 8.30 we were showered, breakfasted and packed and P was armed with enough stuff to survive a hurricane and live...

Today I rediscovered one of my first loves. The joy of writing. Of actually writing with pen and paper. Felt great to just sit down and write - the pen moving at a steady pace as blue lines of letters filled up the blank pages and thoughts flowed out of my mind and onto the paper. Here is the result. Everything has lead me to you. All the moments in my life - happy, sad, purposeful and random. All the choices that I made and the ones that were thrust upon me. All the people I met and the ones that I missed. All my friends and all my acquaintances. Everything that mattered and everything that didn't. Like the time I forgot my keys and went back up the elevator to my place and met T for the first time. All the conversations that I overheard and the calls that got dropped. The movies and stories. The songs that I love and even the bad ones that I couldn't help but hum 'cause they got stuck in my head. All the books that I read and all the places that I lived. All the jobs that...
