Two more dodos

Two more nights of starfishing in my bed... and then Vegas is here. I think I'm about to faint from happiness and excitement!

I love him! I love him! I looooove hiiiiim!

Er, sorry... got carried away there for a moment. Am bubbling over a wee bit... but can you blame me for being happy that my love and soulmate is finally here after six long weeks?

LDR's suck. Sigh.

Oh! I have news! Imagine that after years of searching I finally found my best friend from when I was like 10 years old... through Facebook! My god... I have so many questions for her I don't know where to begin.

She was my first friend in the new town we moved to after my parents divorced, this was in 1979... aaages ago. How I adored her, and her amazing parents who just took me under their wing - her house was a small paradise compared to the hellhole I was stuck in with my brothers. She knew more secrets about me than anyone else, we danced in her livingroom to Dolly Parton, climbed trees and scraped knees, built snow forts and staged plays in her yard, I could go on and on - sweet memories are flooding back now and I'm grinning like an idiot.

And best of all... she didn't forget me after a quarter century.

Yeah... I'm old now... but love will keep me young forever.

LDR's do suck, but there's something to be said about really earning what little time you have. In my opinion, being apart sometimes makes you enjoy time with them a little more because you know what its like to be apart so you don't take one another for granted :-); November 27, 2007 11:16 PM
Smiler said...: I'm happy for you, you sound excited and vibrant. And yes, LDR's really suck. Personally I wouldn't mind going celibate for a good long while, so I'm not really a big proponent of relationships, but I only speak for me. Everyone else: have fun, enjoy. I just find there's too much drama and in the end, I'm much happier all by myself. Grr. So yeah. And you're not old. You're gowgeous. Gowgeous women don't get old. They age gracefully.

Technodoll said...: Katana, you have an awesome blog! So of course I linked you ;-)

Glad to see other people are also living LDR's... the highs and the lows and everything in between. They are magic though when for the right reason, eh?

Smiler, you are right... we never grow old, we age gracefully and we glow. So I'm not really getting if you're still with S or not?!; November 28, 2007 10:43 AM
prin said...: I found mine too. It's funny how when you're little and just a core of a person, the bonds you make never change because you're still the same core of a person.; November 28, 2007 10:47 AM
Technodoll said...: Prin, yeah... some childhood years were just prime for lifelong friendships. I's so happy she and I are emailing now!!; November 28, 2007 10:56 AM

Property is theft. Nobody “owns” anything. When you die, it all stays here.

The planet is fine. The people are fucked.

The real reason that we can’t have the Ten Commandments in a courthouse: You cannot post “Thou shalt not steal,” “Thou shalt not commit adultery,” and “Thou shalt not lie” in a building full of lawyers, judges, and politicians. It creates a hostile work environment.

The only good thing ever to come out of religion was the music.
“When Will Jesus Bring the Pork Chops?” This title offends all three major religions, and even vegetarians!

And now, in the interest of equal time, here is a message from the National Institute of Pancakes: It reads, and I quote, “Fuck waffles.”

Atheism is a non-prophet organization.

Cloud nine gets all the publicity, but cloud eight actually is cheaper, less crowded, and has a better view.

I’m always relieved when someone is delivering a eulogy and I realize I’m listening to it.

Just think, right now as you read this, some guy somewhere is gettin’ ready to hang himself.

If all our national holidays were observed on Wednesdays, we could wind up with nine-day weekends.

Most people with low self-esteem have earned it.

Most people work just hard enough not to get fired and get paid just enough money not to quit.

“No comment” is a comment.

You can’t argue with a good blowjob.

So far, this is the oldest I’ve been.

Can I buy you a drink, or do you just want the money?

I may not be the best looking guy here, but I'm the only one talking to you.

I'd like to screw your brains out, but it appears that someone beat me to it.

If you were a new hamburger at McDonald's, you would be McGorgeous.

I wish you were a Pony Carousel outside Walmart, so I could ride you all day long for a quarter.

Excuse me, do you have your phone number, I've seem to have lost mine.

I can't find my puppy, can you help me find him? I think he went into this cheap motel room.

OK, so what's the speed of dark?

Hard work pays off in the future. Laziness pays off now.

Everyone has a photographic memory. Some just don't have film.

Shin: a device for finding furniture in the dark.

Many people quit looking for work when they find a job.

Join the Army, meet interesting people, kill them.

If Barbie is so popular, why do you have to buy her friends?

Boycott shampoo! Demand the REAL poo!

Who is General Failure and why is he reading my hard disk?

What happens if you get scared half to death twice?

I used to have an open mind but my brains kept falling out.

I couldn't repair your brakes, so I made your horn louder.

If at first you don't succeed, destroy all evidence that you tried.

A conclusion is the place where you got tired of thinking.

Experience is something you don't get until just after you need it.

For every action, there is an equal and opposite criticism.

The colder the X-ray table, the more of your body is required to be on it.

The problem with the gene pool is that there is no lifeguard.

Monday is an awful way to spend 1/7th of your life.

A fool and his money are soon partying.

Plan to be spontaneous tomorrow.

A few peas short of a casserole.

An experiment in Artificial Stupidity.

An intellect rivalled only by garden tools.

As much use as a hedgehog in a condom factory.

As much use as a one-legged man at an ass-kicking contest.

As useful as a wooden frying pan.

As useful as tits on a bull.

Dumb as a stump.

He's got a mind like a steel sieve.

His cheese has slipped off his cracker.

His porch light ain't on.

If brains were dynamite, he wouldn't have enough to blow his nose.

Like a pair of children’s scissors, bright and colorful, but not too sharp.

Million dollar body and a 2 dollar engine.

Proof that evolution CAN go in reverse.

Room temperature IQ.

Was left on the tilt-a-whirl too long as a baby.
