Yeah, I know; I've been writing a lot about relationships lately. I'll own up to it...Daddy's got it pretty bad...and no, I'm actually feeling pretty good about life at the moment. Let's face it; we all want it, we're all looking for it, and when we finally manage to find it, we all act like we're the first person in the universe to ever fall in love. So...guilty as charged, I suppose. I can think of plenty of things I could probably apologize for...this ain't one of them, knowhutimean??
I'm not going to make this an every day thing (even though it probably does kind of seem like that lately), but I'm discovering that writing about what I'm experiencing is a very effective way for me to sort through things. Eventually, I'll probably get used to the whole idea and I'll return to ruminating about politics or human stupidity or hockey or tiramisu...or something else appropriately insipid. Perhaps someday soon I'll return to the regularly scheduled pablum that generally inhabits this dark, cobwebby corner of da Interweb...I just don't know when.
I realize, of course, that I'm not the first person to ever discover that their carefully constructed world has been turned on it's ear by a member of the opposite sex. Yes, perhaps there is something to be said for the old biological imperative...or perhaps it's just the simple desire to find someone who adds some meaning, some purpose, and yes, some fun to your life. And I do have to admit that this sure beats the Hell out of writing about politics. This is something that impacts me intensely and directly, and in a way something as abstract as politics (thankfully) never could. For me, the best writing is almost always about and filled with passion, and if you've been paying attention recently, you've no doubt noticed a pronounced lack of ambivalence in my writing. Honestly, I'm rather enjoying the change.
Yes, kids, it does NOT suck to be me these days. And I didn't even have to subject myself to this sort of insanity...for which I should probably be eternally grateful.
I'll continue to write about the things that impact me, and this latest change certainly fits that bill. Most of what I write about will be centered on me, because this is my sandbox, and I'm feeling rather protective of She Who Hung The Moon ©. I have no desire to bare my soul on da Interweb, and her privacy is worth respecting and protecting. Hey, if she had a blog, she could do what she wished with it. Me? I'll pull back the curtain a bit on occasion, but don't expect there to be a YouTube channel (or a reality show) anytime soon. Still, it is kinda fun to prove now and again that I have a human side.... ;-)
