Spring Break 09 pt 1

Feb. 27, 2009

Dione and I leave for our Great Adventure to the Big Apple.

Our first stop:  Philadelphia.  We are stopping to see Abby and Derek.  

Something that I don't understand is why turnpikes are the most boring highways on which I've ever been.  High walls on either side deter motorists from U-turns, but it also hinders any views for like 200 miles!  Give a brotha something to look at!  Damn!

We arived at Abby's at 6 a.m. on the 28th.  6.....a.m......

We sleep....

The Princess Complex

So a friend of mine and I were talking about our love lives. He was regaling me with his sexploits, and then he asked me, "How's your love life?" I realized then and there, "I don't really have a love life..." I mean, I date, but does anyone one love me romantically? I do get lonely, but I'm never alone.

He said that I have the Princess Di Complex. That the person I thought was special just ends up in bed with someone else. I, however, have renamed it: the Princess Complex.

I mustn't wait for love or hunt it, but just keep my eyes open. One day it will be there.

I've stopped looking for love. I have known love. I remember how it feels, how it smells, how it sounds, but I can never remember what it looks like. I'm sure it can take many forms. Some more startling that others, but it's still love. It's there, pushing you forward, not letting you get away. Love just...is. I wish I had someone to show me what love looks like, but I'm ok. I know that one day, he will find me. On the wings of love (not to sound too corny).

And when my prince, whomever he may be, finds me, I will see through the eyes of love.

I know he's out there searching too. I may not be waiting for his kiss to wake me, or for him to scale my beautiful locks, or even for him to find me wondering in the dark. He will know, like I know, that we will be/are meant to be. Once and forever. We will be magic.

Goodnight,

Ganymede, The Pillar of Confidence
