Oct. 29th, 2005 12:08 amWhy am I still awake? It's after midnight! I never do this!
It's probably because I had such a great night, and I'm completely energized. I didn't intend to stay out as late as I did, but time just flew. It was like a really great first date, though of course that's not what it was;)
After work (which was long, dull, and slow today), I went directly to the gym. 25 minutes on the elliptical at a pace I've never managed before, quick shower, quick dinner, spur of the moment CD compilation, and out the door. I'd made plans with a new friend from HUU to go out and do some shopping. We've hung out a little bit in the past, but never for very long, and never just the two of us. I was really glad to be getting out with her - making new friends, the really good ones, is such a fulfilling thing, and it's something I haven't done enough of since moving here. I think that attending HUU has really opened a door for me to a part of the town that I didn't know existed. I don't mean geographically, but politically and socially. I'm so glad to be going back there on Sunday after an absense of two weeks (though I was at the Reston UU last week).
I need to get some CD cases, because I've been making oodles of CDs lately, and I have no way to package them.
harri_cady, I made a couple for you, but need to find a safe way to ship them before I can mail them out to you. Just in case I don't still have it, do you mind emailing me your physical address? Thanks:)
Anyhow, I've been writing out my stories for each song that I burn, and it reminds me a lot of Jeremy's religious philosophy (well, one of many): Every sermon (statement, etc) is heresy for the truths it leaves unspoken. It's like every CD is great but it would take thousands to include all the music that inspires me - what I'm hoping is that some of the folks I share this with will fall in love with the music as I have and go buy all the albums they can get their hands on. These are folk musicians, after all. Not exactly rolling in the money from their album sales, you know.
Anyway, I should try to get myself to bed now. I guess I am a little bit sleepy.
Peace.
