I will not die an unlived life I will not live in fear of falling Or of catching fire I choose to inhabit my days To allow my living to open me Making me less afraid More accessible To loosen my heart So that it becomes a wing, a torch, a promise I choose to risk my significance. To live so that that which comes to me as seed Goes to the next as blossom And that which comes to me as blossom Goes on as fruit. --Donna Markova

This That And The Other

Vehicular Profiling ~ Beware of ppl who drive new white SUVs...they drive like idiots. Beward of ppl who drive new white LEXUS SUVs...they're trophy wives, who drive while talking on cell phones and think that they can go as fast as they want and it doesn't matter because their lawyer husbands can get them out of whatever kind of mess they may make. Beware of ppl who drive Escalades...they're rapper wannabes who lobbied their representatives to pass the conceal and carry law. **disclaimer** If you fall into one of the above categories, seek help immediately. If you drive one of the above vehicles and somehow manage to avoid the sudden drop in IQ, found to be directly proportional to the drop in gas mileage, that driving one of these vehicles causes, you have my sincere apology and undying admiration.

I am switching jobs, for at least six weeks, we're going to do a trial run and see how scheduling works out and all that...so I'll only be taking a leave of absence form my current job while I see how things are going to pan out. I think that'll be great.

I have more guy friends than girl friends. I love them to death, but I'm starting to want aguy too. Guy friends are great, but I want someone closer than that. Ah well, doesn't everyone. I'm not the type to go looking for a boyfriend just for the sake of having one, so we'll see how things unfold with the new school year and all that. I'm excited, of course, to go back to school, but I'm sure that won't last too long.

I'll post something more intelligent later tonight, but at the moment I'm just hanging around my house being bored and that just isn't intellectually stimulating enough to spark enough intelligent thought for a good post. Later all, Katie


"Be patient toward all that is unsolved in your heart and try to love the questions themselves like locked rooms and like books that are written in a very foreign tongue. Do not now seek the answers, which cannot be given you because you would not be able to live them. And the point is, to live everything. Live the questions now. Perhaps you will find them gradually, without noticing it, and live along some distant day into the answer." ~Rainer Maria Rilke, Letters to a Young Poet
