Okay. I now have a Gmail account. It's dnatheory, the same as my yahoo account, so that makes it easy. You can use whichever you like; I'm not getting rid of any accounts. I now have three. Hurray for way more email accounts than I'll ever need!

Soooo... for those of you who don't know, Nick and I have been having a... hmm... a something since May 2. We're not really sure what we are, but I don't think it's a lasting thing. We're really close friends, and I think we always will be, but this relationship thing is probably only temporary. It's been very uncertain since he moved out, but I'm going to go see him tomorrow. I'm kind of excited. But I don't really know what I want from all this, so I'm not really sure what all my emotions are.

I seem to have a lot of confused emotions lately. I feel like I've been an emotional wreck for the last fifteen years. Or maybe all twenty years. I don't know. Maybe my brain is set up differently than other peoples', so I'm in a constant state of confusion and chaos. I seem to take everything so seriously. How do I stop doing that without losing my grip on reality, and without losing the idea that each moment in life is important? IS each moment in life important? Or are there a lot of moments besides the ones you spend cooking breakfast and doing laundry that you should throw out?

I want to rewind a year or so. Do the second year of college over. Take less credits. I don't know. I don't know that anything I could have done would have prepared me for Nanny's death, or the thing with Mom, or the endometriosis crisis. I'm so stressed out. I just wish I was happy right now. I haven't been happy since fall quarter, and that worries me. Last summer was so good, was so fun, and I was so passionate about everything, so in love with life. And I'm not now. I keep wanting this summer to fix me, and so far it just seems to be adding insults to injuries and beating me further into the ground. I want to run away and relax for a week or two, and then come back and deal with things, once I have some reserves back. Maybe I'll go to Hawaii and sit on a beach for a week. Or Mexico. Or Greece. Or maybe I'll pick a stupid tiny little town in the Midwest and go live in a hotel for a week, and swim in the pool and shop at the ridiculously tiny grocery store and be bored out of my mind. I don't know. I just need to get away. I need to be away from my life for a week. Just... to have a break. And then I'll deal with everything. Then maybe I can deal with Nanny's death. I still don't believe she's gone. It still doesn't feel real, and when I think about it I still feel my mind pushing back against the thought. And it was seven months ago. I need a break.

At least... at least... um... at least the weather here is nice. And I'm not starving. Yet. Although if my loan doesn't arrive within the next couple of days...

Damnit, I was trying to think of positive things. Weather nice. Housemates nice. Plenty of clothing. Semi-fun job. Wasn't in pain yesterday (one whole pain-free day is pretty good, actually). Except for the splitting headache, anyway.

*sigh*

Um, this is a positive note. And I'm ending on it. Someone sing a C sharp, quick.

Hmm. Generally, notes sound good or bad or major or minor or whatever in relation to what comes around them, what comes before, after, and with them....

But for me, you couldn't have picked a worse isolated note than C#... on saxophone, it's open, which means it's freaking hard to play it in tune, so I'm trained to think "C# bad" and on my harp... the lever would rattle more than likely, or I'd have to tune it up, which is a pain... couldn't you have stuck with a nice simple A? Maybe a D or an E?

Hmm... Maybe it's symbolic somehow? Or maybe it's supposed to be played on a piano?

I like D. Go a half-step up from C# and you're at D.

Okay okay okay. I'll end on a D.

Yay!

What do you think of GMail saving absolutely everything? I've been thinking a lot lately about what happens when you break up with someone and then you log into gmail and there are all their poems, pictures, text messages and livejournal comments staring you right in the face, and you can't get rid of them! Ten years from now they'll still stair you in the face, pop up in your searches occasionally like a soar thumb. We used to be able to burn letters and journals, but now, thanks to google, what can we do?

Sorry to be so pessimist, this is a combination of just having reread Regina Lin's column and my girlfriend having left the country. (Do you know who my girlfriend is?) We should talk at some point... I got stories. Good luck with Nick though; all I can say about that is sometimes having a not-well-defined relationship can be bad.

You CAN still delete things with GMail; they just encourage you not to.

And I, personally, save everything anyway from relationships. Every guy has a box, with a bunch of stuff from the relationship in it. The box gets kept out of sight, but occasionnally it's nice to look inside them and remember.

Yeah, I did know you were dating Ciara. And I looked back through your journal entries trying to figure out how the hell that happened, but I couldn't find anything. How's Rico with all this? Are you guys friends?

K-Rizzle.

I'm sending you some music. Let me know if you like it PLEASE.

Werd up,

Ev-Sizzle

Um, I probably won't like it, but that's because I'm in sort of a music hole right now, and I don't like any new music, and I hate half the old stuff I have. Just haven't been in a music mood lately...

And I haven't gotten it, if you sent it already.

Not yet...but I will!

:)

Do you like instrumental stuff by any chance?

Date: 2005-07-11 02:05 pm (UTC)From: [identity profile] oceantheorem.livejournal.com
Sometimes. Depends on what it is. Sometimes it just drives me crazy.

Hmmm

Date: 2005-07-11 06:25 pm (UTC)From: [identity profile] tryptonique.livejournal.com
Well I sent you a lot of songs (dnatheory@gmail.com right?).

Check 'em out!
