sometimes, however, several days attack me all at once."

hot fire
If you're hot fire, this means you probably:
* are extremely boy/girl crazy
* love a challenge and the thrill of the chase
* can be very flirtatious
* are pretty confident most of the time
* can be nasty if you don't get your way
* have a serious jones for some lip-service
* have no problem letting people know how you feel about them
* believe that humour and love should go hand in hand
Confident and out-spoken, no one would ever call you shy. But you do have a soft center. People sometimes find you hard to fathom: one minute you're as sweet as pie and the next you're a naughty, foot stamping terror. But, hey, that's just part of your charm, right?
in love: If you come across someone you like the look of, there's no way they're not going to notice you. You'll do everything in your power to grab their attention. You won't embarrass anyone, though, you're far to considerate for that. But you'll make damn sure you get exactly what you're after.
watch out: In love, you're impatient and impetuous and sometimes forget that it takes two to make a relationship really work. Apart from that, you're fabulous, amusingly unpredictable, exciting company.
advice: Ease up on that image of yours and loosen up a bit, be yourself. It might be just what you need to catch that special someone's eye.
hot fire leo: You are very good at getting your way, especially in romance. Once you decide who and what you want, there's no stopping you.
perfect match: hot fire and hot air

Code word toothbrush. It's funny how the questions "Do you have your toothbrush?" or "Should I bring my toothbrush?" have become code for "Are you staying over tonight?" or "Do you want me to stay over tonight?"
e: what?
t: nothing.
e: sighs
t: what? can't I just look at you?
later that day
t: what?
e: nothing. pointed look
t: laughs now you've got me doing it!
e: ha
Heart-breaking grief. R has had to deal with way too much of it. Especially recently.

Cutting back. Personally I think there is a lot in my life I can cut back on.
However, I don't think I have enough motivation to cut back. I may just be enjoying the drama that is my life...or maybe it's a fucking sitcom. It's cracking me up either way.
I was reading Bukowski on my windowsill last night, and this passage "When she smiled it hurt. It hurt her and it hurt me. She kept smiling" literally gave me chills. I know that smile. I've done that smile. And it's one of the most painful things.
Also about last night, how do you go from magnanimous; which means generous and noble, especially with forgiveness; to that means touching your breasts? Which really brings up the better question is there a word that specifically describes the action of touching your breasts? And if there isn't should there be one? Inversely, if there is, who on Earth came up with it?
Word of the day: magnanimous

Minority Report: From now on, all I ask is that movies and television shows refrain from showing eye operations and teeth pulling. That's all. If someone wants to chop someone else's head off, feel free. Just stay away from the eyes and teeth.
I don't think I'd ever met anyone who shared my same appreciation for the word defenestration, until now. And trust me, that makes me one lucky girl.
Exhausting. Apparently I'm also exhausting. I believe in the exasperating sense of the word.

Last night the sky looked red.
My only logical explanation for this is that the city lights reflected into the clouds and imbued them with the red. It was quite an amazing sight.
It was the perfect summer night...once the sun set and the evening breeze kicked up, it was just wonderful to stroll through the Common. It was so nice to sit on a park bench with someone and talk about anything and everything, with the wind rustling the leaves in the trees and playing with my hair, it was one of those moments where I felt at "one with the universe."

Since when did life decide that a soap opera was the art it needed to imitate? Not that I'm complaining mind you, I'm having such absolute fun. I mean in my wildest dreams did I ever think I'd be in the center of all this romantic intrigue. Of course, ultimately, it will all blow up in my face. You can't not have three different boys driving you crazy and not end up with the short end of the stick. Not that it will necessarily be my fault. Guys--boys--are stupid. And confusion is catching.
