HURRY BACK (or I'll eat all your kinta roll and use all your 24 lb. extra bright paper)!!

day three of condo hunting. pooped. not going to be living on barry (the street, not the velociraptor)... not going to be living in Stryker's condo... definitely not going to be living where that old woman died...

so where?

(p.s. tomorrow's wednesday!!)

so what IS Timothy about?

to old friends, to new friends. to celebrations, to self-reflections. to scallops and lobster on broccolini. to the chocolate pyramids. to secrets. to secrets revealed. to the nice couple at the bar. to the two hour twenty minute risotto. to cutting one's hair.

and to waking up three and a half hours later. with a smile.

a perrier jouet toast... to an utterly momentous week. repeat utterly.

I got into grad school!!!!!!!

please, can someone hit the pause button?

DPe said it best: it feels like everything is in fast forward.

perhaps the most rewarding experience is to learn immensely more about someone you already knew. and the saddest experience is realizing how little you knew to begin with. and the most growing experience is being able to reflect on them both.

onto book-writing and library.ucla.edu searches...then a nyquil-induced coma... but maybe not in that order...

things sprawled on bed ("just to keep stuff off the floor"): opened suitcase, hardly used oil-free acne wash creme cleanser, peacoat, new clothes, old clothes, glasses case, non-scary gloves, tattered Let's Go New York City guide, and me...

oh NY.

(non-french) It's not what it seems but it is.

I think I'm coming out of my daze a bit. Knowing the sky will be blue is settling. At least I can somewhat concentrate on things. Not that things are necessarily clearer, but getting a good night of sleep definitely helps. And so does book-writing. And narrow-ruled yellow notepads and #2 pencils.

In the end, it really will all work out.

onward, to NY. then I can start to plan Paris.

Stay or leave
I want you not to go
But you should
It was good as good goes
Stay or leave
I want you not to go
But you did

So what to do
With the rest of the day's afternoon hey
Isn't it strange how we change
Everything we did
Did I do all that I should

That I coulda done

What have I done?
