People still ask about you.
Yesterday when I was asked, I had to count the months. I guess that's a good thing, the fact that I no longer know off the top of my head. The days have turned to weeks have turned to months. I didn't know how to respond to most of the questions with anything other than an "I don't know. I really have no idea." [what had happened... where it all went... How?]
Just a year ago I was falling crown over sole for you.
You were moving me in nice and easy; it was little effort for you, and it wasn't so hard for me to love you either. My heart was broken for you. I gave you full access to this cold hard chest of mine and this time '09 you started doing surgery, cutting deeply and providing me warmth from the inside. I was hopeful and I looked only forward, right into those eyes as they turned from kelly to cornflower.
You blew my mind, sweetheart.
You had me; you had me.

Happy Belated
This past week[end] was pretty great.
Wednesday: Happy Birthday! It started off terrible, being some 45 minutes late to work. Though, things brightened up when Sarah Lo gave me my gift. ;] It was just a gift card, but she knew exactly where to get it. Her High School Musical card and inside jokes put a smile on my face, and I really could never get enough hugs from that beautiful, beautiful girl... woman. She's got a special spot in my heart for definitely. Melissa and a few others went in on a gift card and some cupcakes for me, which was pretty neat, and Liz got me a Starbucks gift card and lunch. Awesome.
I'll only mention very briefly the headache I had later on, my exhaustion and the midterm I had to trudge through.
Thursday, Chelsea took me to Tito's and Venice Beach for my birthday--two firsts for me. The food was ok, but Venice was the better part of the little jaunt. I got to see/meet some interesting people. Cruisin' around, I spotted a watch that I'd really like. I'm definitely going back if I ever do have the cash. We also stopped at this hat place that sold sculptures made of spare metal objects as well with very many options in size. There were terminator and alien statues that cost about $20,000 a piece, but I opted simply for a small replica of Wall-E for about $30. It's pretty rad. Chelsea couldn't really hang any longer, so by the end of our walk up and down the beach, she was pretty much done. Good times.
Friday I had a little trip with my classmates to the Getty Villa in Malibu preceded by my first visit to Alondra Hot Wings. Good Lord, I have found a new favorite place to eat; I'm quite confident I will never tire of hot wings. The wings were fantastic and reasonably priced. Wing Stop? No thanks!
The Villa was a nice little experience, although I'll need another visit or two to really give a proper opinion on the whole place. The blazing heat was a downer.
Saturday night I had dinner with some great people: Fernie, Phil, Neal, Lorena, [Dylan], Lauren, Katina and Timmy. We hit Claim Jumper in Brea. It was a great meal and good conversation. I really appreciate little things like this since I wasn't really going to do anything at all to celebrate in the first place. I really do love what friends I do have. Really, I do. ;] I received a few gift cards and a pretty sweet t-shirt that I actually had to exchange because the fit wasn't quite what I was looking for. After dinner, I went to go see Where the Wild Things Are with Fernie, Phil, and James. I was disappointed here and there, and the theme was a pretty sad one. I kind of liked it though, being the nutty nostalgic person that I am.
Sunday night I had dinner with Matt and Pam in Long Beach. We went down to 2nd Street and Matt introduced me to Open Sesame. We ordered the party platter. Wow. Lots and lots of meat: beef this way and that, chicken here and there, and some delicious bit of lamb, all over a feathery bed of rice. It was great, and the company was nice too. I missed that guy; we were like brothers once, always in trouble or doing something that could have gotten us in trouble when we were young. ;] It's really cool to re-acquaint with one another, and it's been nice getting to know Pam too. They go really well together.
haha.. Matt brought up the time I stole my mom's Frizz-Ease because I liked how slow the fire traveled when it burned. Awesome memories... more nostalgia. ;]
It was a great birthday weekend for sure. ;] ;] ;]
Happy 23rd!

I guess I'll try and get some sleep now. Good night. <3
