huh morning
May. 22nd, 2004 11:53 amMmm. It's early. Well, not so early now, but I woke up around 8:30 to go have breakfast and spy on
devinluvsrussia's hot new Italian.
I can report that he was very charming, very funny, and yes, very hot!
It's a bleak sort of rainy day--perfect for a matinee, so post work, Dev and I might go check out 13 Going On 30. I love rainy day movie afternoons.
Hobbsie is full of love this morning. I think he thinks that my coming in the front door equals food for him. Man, is he going to be one disappointed ball of fur.
Had a really nice chat with my dad this morning. Caught up and talked about our plans to meet in SF for July 4th. I'm really looking forward to that trip. I miss my darling nephews. The worst thing about being a dirt poor student is not being able to send them spontaneous little presents. To show my love, and you know, bribe them. It'll also be great to finally see Amy's new home and Willi's new apartment. See the people and things I love about the Bay Area.
I think it's funny that outside of missing some good friends, I don't have much nostalgia for a place that was home for 12 years. I don't miss it at all. I feel weird about that. I mean, I love the Bay Area. It's a great place to live. It wasn't a traumatic period of my life or anything. Why don't I miss it? I get so easily attached to people, places and things. Why am I never homesick for it. I lived in Seattle for 6mos (before my exile to LA) and I missed Seattle like crazy. Wtf?
Seattle definitely feels like home to me in a way that no other place ever has. Talking to my dad this morning, started gently breaking to him that I wouldn't be returning to LA. He's taking it remarkably well, considering how much I know he misses me. And how much I miss him. We get along so well (when not discussing religion or marriage). It was so amazing forging such a fast friendship with him the past two years I lived in LA again--as an adult. I love my dad. He's just an incredible person. When I think about his life and the situations he's endured, the things he's done for everyone around him (family, friends, patients), it is simply awe-inspiring.
