Week of Anxiety
This will be a good week to wrap up. We put in that bid Monday, Tuesday we signed paperwork… and its just been waitng. HUD requested some changes to the pre-qualification letter so they have yet to sign the contract and initiate the closing process.
To help with some of the anxiety, Twin and I have been shopping around for kitchen materials and paint colors. Our colors are largely based on Feng Shui, in which 1984 is the year of the Rat and the Wood element. The corresponding locations of living/work space is South, Southeast, and East. The colors are Green and Brown, with Water colors Blue and Black being preferred as well. BTW… I think wood ties in well with being Western Astrological Air signs. Going by some rules of Feng Shui allows us to experiment and narrow down the possibilities some.
Still the anxiety runs strong despite trying to dissipate some of that feeling, so tonight we’re going to Shultzy’s.
Twin is working tomorrow, so I might get up and cover some pretty good miles in the boat. It would seem somewhat attractive to try invite someone else, but I can go a lot further if I am on my own. I will have to pack a bag because its supposed to be hot, and if I paddle from the Marina to Yarrow Bay… I’ll need energy refueling, lots of water, and suntan lotion. I could opt to go North so I don’t have to be close to the freeway. I’m a little cautious about being in the middle of the lake because a drunk motor-boat might not see me in time to avoid me since I’m no more than a few feet above the surface. I do have a bright yellow boat, but that’s only mere inches above the suface and easily hidden behind waves.
I looked back at a few of my entries, and I think I will definitely go the route of modifying them to reflect the change in perspective or delete them entirely. I can tell there are times I write to fill time, and other times where I write to vent something. I did that with my poems/rhymes back in the day when transferring them from one hand-written journal to another and it worked well.
I’ve been to Shultzy’s once before a bike ride. I think it’s better if you’re a meat eater so you can have sausages and whatnot, because I wasn’t digging the veggie options. Do you ever go to Big Time or anywhere else along there?

Do you have any idea what it’s like being an other sexual orientation BESIDES hetero and having to keep it a secret?

change, even the good kind, produces some angst. We create an identity and any shift in that brings with it new concerns. I know when I was going through the separation, i used to think ****, i haven’t dated in more than decade. Who am I going to tell these people i am, etc. I deal with my angst in some of the ways you do, i keep myself moving. thinking is good but it can lead you down some rabbit

RYN: I like my Twitter account. I dont have as many “friends” and tend to keep it that way so that I can share with my most immediate peeps, more so than I would on Facebook.

ryn: planning is still going good, I just hate planning anything. I’m good with coming up with ideas, but making them happen is not my forte. I like your sayings lol Water: feeling a little dry Earth: could use some sprucing Yeah I’m not as clever, but it’s amusing 🙂
