I still recall the things you said to make me feel alright.

[judecorp]

As I lay me down to sleep, this I pray:
that you will hold me, dear. Though I'm far away,
I whisper your name into the sky,
and I will wake up happy.

I can't explain it. I can't describe it. I can't even rationalize it away. All I know is that a month ago a part of me was missing, and now it's not. The only drawback is that I'm not ready for this yet. Again. I know, I know, I'm my own worst enemy, right? This time, though, everything's on the table, out in the open. There's something comforting and wonderful about that.

On Saturday I'm getting up at 4am to fly out of here at 6. I get to Newark at 9am so I can accompany a girl on her big moving trip. [puppy eyes] Anyone want to drive me to the airport at like 4:45am? [/puppy eyes] And as of right now, nearly 11pm on Sunday 6 October, there's only giddy excitement. Yay.

Aww babe, I'm so happy for you. :-)

[judecorp.livejournal.com]

You know, I almost ruined this nice little post by replying to you with: You know this is about you, right? But I think I will just leave it the way it is.

Oh wait, I guess I blew it. :) Hey, we should get together sometime without the boys.

[prettyvacantone.livejournal.com]

Hey baby, you've got my number. I'm game to go out with you any time!

Hooray!

[judecorp.livejournal.com]

We'll have to set something up when you're feeling better. We can see a movie and sit all snug in the theatre! :)

[kieron.livejournal.com]

Home.




soon

[judecorp.livejournal.com]

yay

[cappucinogrrl.livejournal.com]

Are you kidding me?! You're going to be at Newark on Saturday morning?!

I'm going to be at Newark on Wednesday.

!*@#%^!

[judecorp.livejournal.com]

Argh! Too bad you won't be there on Saturday morning, since basically I'll just be there to get picked up, and then it's off to the suburbs to get Jennifer's truck and start driving.

Poo. :(

make sure to listen to some good tunes!

[cappucinogrrl.livejournal.com]

Yeah, I'll already be way back in the 'burbs by Saturday.

How long is that drive?

Re: make sure to listen to some good tunes!

[judecorp.livejournal.com]

It's about 10 hours. And don't worry, I'll find some way to get good tunes into the [insert company name] truck.

I've observed through life that very seldom does happiness find us on our schedule. Happiness keeps its own schedule and we can either accept it or reject it. Rejecting it because it's inconvenient is bad. When it comes around, grab on with both hands and don't let go!

[judecorp.livejournal.com]

Rejecting it because it's inconvenient is bad.

It's more than inconvenient because I'm just not emotionally ready for it yet, but that's good advice and I have noted it.

I love the song, but an old friend of mine once pointed out that it sounds like the back-up singers are saying "I want a taco"...I still can't listen to that song without cravuing Mexican...

[judecorp.livejournal.com]

There are backup singers? Heck, I guess I need to have another listen.

Re:

[gangrel-pri.livejournal.com]

It's over the chorus towards the end.

[rizzo41.livejournal.com]

Hee hee. My friend and I sing alternately

"Who likes tacos?"

"I like tacos!"

[judecorp.livejournal.com]

You're wee-uhd. :)

p.s. Sent you present today!

Re:

[gangrel-pri.livejournal.com]

ROFL

Glad to hear I'm not the only one then:)

[thatpatti.livejournal.com]

i can give you a ride if you need one.

[judecorp.livejournal.com]

Patti, you are the sweetest ever. That's a heck of a haul for you at 4ish am, though... maybe someone that is closer to me will volunteer? I would hate for you to have to get up and come allll the way down, but I really really really do appreciate it.

Normally I leave my car at the airport, but since I'm not flying back (oops, don't tell the airline!), I don't want to have to have someone drive me to long term parking.

[00solstice.livejournal.com]

I could do it... I'm about 3 miles from you and 3 miles from the airport... which makes it a short trip out and a short trip home for me.

I would need a wake-up call, though... as I would be prone to somnambully hit the snooze button on my alarm.

[00solstice.livejournal.com]

correction:

"somnambulisticly"

[judecorp.livejournal.com]

Big words turn me on.

[judecorp.livejournal.com]

I could give you a wake-up call. Are you sure you won't miss the call or sleep through it? That would suck.

Thanks, Steve-O. If someone closer to you volunteers, I'll let you know.

Re:

[00solstice.livejournal.com]

nahh... i'll set my alarm about 5 minutes before you plan to call. no problem!

[judecorp.livejournal.com]

Okay - we'll plan for that, then. We'll hammer out more concrete plans (call time, pick-up time, etc) toward the end of the week.

Thanks so much, Steve-o! (We can even take the bike, if it's nice out, since I won't have any luggage.)

More likely the microbus... unless you have an undeniable urge to discover what it feels like to have a dewey, 50 degree F wind blasting into you at 60 mph in the dark, dark pre-dawn hour! :-)
