Home, Holiday, Happiness
Once again, its been ages since i managed to squeek in an entry or 2, and if i possessed the erudition to make up a good excuse, well, i would have written it by this point. Sadly, the true answer is mingled somewhere between studying like a fool for finals, drinking myself into oblivion, steering my way home to the luscious land that is Pennsyvlania, and finally capturing the essence that is christmas-gift shopping.
All that being said, its been a wild ride over the past week, and i’ll try my best to recapture the moments as best i can, being that its rather delayed, and likewise, rather distant.
First: One of my friends had a rare moment, and in a way few can imagine or appreciate, complimented me in an extraordinary, truly season-worthly way. It happened something like this:
There we were sitting around, chit-chatting while "out on the town" the various vultures known as law students blotting out the scene. My boys and i, sitting around, enjoying the drink, fun and festivities. And then ( i was kinda daydreaming when it happened) one of le vultures said something particularly menacing about yours-truly, and one of my friends, in a quick, and violent retort, stared directly at the fool who said it and replied"don’t you ever say something like that about E while in my presence. that man has more moral character in his little finger than you, or anyone has in their entire body." It was said with such menace the fool apologized….i shrugged of course…since its not like i actually paid attention to what was being said anyway. Still, good times.
Second: I had a night out with T, the girl i met 1st year who worked in admissions. We had a number of interesting(and fun) experiences, and conversations, but interestingly it turned to that realm of E and his relationship status, and E and "what do you look for in a girl." Perhaps i’m misreading, perhaps its my hubris talking, but i think she has a crush on me. In fact, she even asked why "im not more active in my pursuit of women." Which, in general, is a truth. Of course, it takes one of two things to change that. One, if the girl reall stirs my soul, ill unleash and "go for it." otherwise, i’m a slave to the girl who strikes first, who takes initiative, and thus, its just such a turn on when i girl make a move on me….once in a while.
-This reminds me of B, back when we first started dating, sophomore year of college. We were in gym class (tennis to be exact) and she was my tennis partner (we ended up getting 1st place)…and one day, during a routine class, she points and says "c’mere E, i need your help" and walked into the equipment room. Puzzled and clueless as i always am, i walked in, she grabbed me, kissed me for the first time, and i was truly utterly lovestruck….ah, even recalling that moment now, makes me smile like few others. For all her devil-ness, B sure did make my head swim.
Third, i had one of those "unbelievable" moments on my flight home. Now when i say that, i dont mean a good moment, rather, just one of those moments that i cant believe really happened. It went something like this:
I walk through the metal detector thing at the airport; i beep. I get an indignant look from the guard, and i mutter "ah its my belt." and move to take it off. "Sir! Sir!" he exclaims…"Stop.!" So i stop. He takes the "wand" thing, and wands me…and lo, my belt beeps. So, i smirk and say "can i take my belt off now?" "Yes, take it off." So i do, and i hold it out. "Woah, Sir! Sir!. Place that belt on the x ray machine." —so i do, and i walk through unscathed. Ah, so i figure the ordeal is over, and i begin to dress back up…"Sir, what gate are you going out of?" So…i look, a bit puzzled (why the hell are they asking me) and i check, and mutter "A12"….the guy turns and says "their is a barber shop on the way, i suggest you use it." -I wanted to hit that f–ker, or at the least, tell him to F off. Of course, i realized that would have gotten me detained, and i most likely would have missed my fight, so i weighed the factors, and simply kept walking. Still, i can’t believe that happened. Like….what kind of an ass would say something like that.
Fourth: Once i finally made it home, had my well-missed dinner at Isaac’s, i returned to my ol’ room, and looked upon my ol’ computer, (from college and florida) and decided to turn it on, just to check it out. First thing i noticed, my cousin had been on their; he changed the wallpaper…i’m gonna get him when he comes into town tommorrow. But more important, i found a cute, laughable drunk IM conversation between the infamous S, and myself, which occured on august 10, 2001:
S: where is D?
E: at home
S: i have to tell her what a great person she is
E: well, call her at home.

Some comments: (1) I never did go to halloween horror nights (i.e. return to florida) that year. (2) D came to visit shortly after, things didn’t go as well as we thought it would. (3) The infamous, original "M" snuck into the picture, and my life quickly spiraled in new directions. Even with D and i broken up, even when D and i don’t go out, S and i always chat in between…harmless fun, but most definitely fun. Those two are my girls, D and S, for all th
e madness, and no matter how much BS D puts me through, at least, in the back of my mind, i will always think about them; much like i think about B. That makes me smile so much, because S is the only girl who i’ve been friends with for years, who i never dated, and yet who i have moments captured that truly make me smile (like the one above.)
Ah, the memories that are stored here, the life, the world, the holidays. All of it, is so beautiful.
Merry Christmas everyone.
Oodles o’ love,
Erotique

Some the people at Lambert are just assholes taht take their job WAY too seriously. I’ve had run ins with a couple of them. The best compliment I’ve ever had was very recently. An older gentleman approached me, apologized for intruding on my grocery shopping, but said he had to tell me that my hair was the most beautiful mane he had ever seen. “Perilous” hair he said…It’s stuck with me since
