Touching Base

Posted on Monday 15 February 2010

Woah.  It has been a minute, everyone.  I have been /so busy/ with life these past few months.. As you know I've just launched a resume editor & hosting site, Praux.com.. Available at http://praux.com.  Tell all your friends ;).  I recently got re-engaged, I know some of your heads might be still spinning re: my love life, so I'll keep that short.. I just want you to know that I'm happy and loved.

I'm just doing my thing, plodding along.. trying to keep my chin up when it goes down.  Trying to bring love and energy to those around me.  Mad love peoples.  Mad love.

of friendship lost and friendship bought
i have found that i am not
privy to or desiring the
false wit or false sympathy
of those who smile because they're scared
of life, of loss, or being ill prepared
for events so long beyond their power
comfort, even cold for one more hour
save them all and hold them close
for in the world they are all ghosts
their hearts walled off their spirits held
so closely guarded in their shells

i'll ask you now and ask you later
do you think you're safe from danger?
do you think you'll wether the storm
with only your ego to keep you warm?
little wallflower do you think you'll dance?
do you think you are exempt from the chance?
satisfaction does not come from blame
even out of focus it all stays the same
your rage is rage and your love is love
everything you can be is just above
the false foot forward that you place
and the rich, deep life you'll never taste

Hi.

Posted on Wednesday 14 October 2009

i woke up to the world still turning
last night was the apocalypse
passion dying, replaced with yearning
thinking about where i sit

with you.

you left so much in the air by being so specific
confusing expectations framed everything i didn't do
i should have thought, i should have stood, i should have been more with it
something on me, something that didn't come from you

from me.

but i woke up to the world still turning
last night was just the end of another day
yearning waining, replaced with burning
another price that i must pay

in life.

oh hi,

didn't see you there ;).  it's been a long time since my last blog and really even longer since i was comfortable enough in my own skin to put any of my cards onto the table.  it feels so good to be where i am.  i am where i never thought i could ever be.  i faced huge internal fears and did what i thought was right.  i did what i had to do.  and i'm proud of myself for doing it.

i know lots of people don't and won't understand.. my actions, myself, or whatever.  and that's perfectly fine.  i just wanted to take a second to acknowledge the people who have.  you guys are fucking brilliant.  and it makes me happy i'm on this earth with you.  once upon a time i thought i could do it all alone.  i'm wiser now... also.. i'm having way more fun living life with you than i ever was alone.

settling in to my own self is taking longer than i expected, but if there's anything i've learned in recent years it's patience.

<3

(10:48) (@Mikey_) summon SilverBullet
(10:48) (@Mikey_) like.. the sun eclipses
(10:48) (@Mikey_) and snowy wind blows

(10:48) (@Mikey_) and the mountains come up in the horizon

(10:48) (@Mikey_) then you hear the train in the distance
(10:49) (@Mikey_) and suddenly a mountain explodes into ice crystals
(10:49) (@Mikey_) and the train roars through it

(10:49) (@Mikey_) then you get some side-shots to show how fast the train is moving toward whatever

(10:49) (@Mikey_) then it just goes
(10:49) (@Mikey_) 9999
(10:49) (@Mikey_) 9999

(10:49) (@Mikey_) and leaves
