I would certainly love to hear your response to the femme invisibility post. When you have time, when you have time.

Reading about your experience with your friend in SF makes me want to visit so badly. It’s been YEARS since I’ve been there, and I think it’s about time I got back there.

It’s great that you know when to let things go with your girl. I have to admit – I don’t always know when to do that, and sometimes it tends to lead to arguments and disagreements that are unnecessary. But I’m working on it …

The GRE is today. Kick ass.

thanks! I’m kind of underprepared, but then, I’m an expert at last-minute cramming…

so glad someone gets me on the control/organizational/meticulous thing… sometimes I feel like an alien! especially because mi’lady SO doesn’t get it, and sometimes she just looks at me like I’m from mars and can’t stop laughing!

oh man, that must be so hard to have your gf in iraq. I can’t even imagine. I’m so glad you had a good day though, yeah it’s SO important to have days where you can just laugh and be silly and talk about everything under the sun with someone you’re really close to (who isn’t your gf!).

glad you’re breathing again. and my thoughts are totally with you… and your gf… hope it all works out.

I want to visit SF sooo badly! That sounds awesome. Glad you had a great time with your peeps.

And yea, with the whole slight control and organizational and meticulous thing – that is SO me. Holy hell girl I feel you.

Glad you are in a good place and good luck with the GRE’s!

Good luck on your GRE!!!!!

I am happy that you had such a great time!

It is a bit crazy how certain moments make you reflect and realize how good things are in the midst of all the craziness in your life!

I took my best friend out to dinner for her bday (it is on Saturday, but I wont be able to spend it with her so we did the whole dinner, drinks, and cake today just her and I) and it was so much fun…just us being silly, having girl talk, discussing issues that are in our lives, her husband, m girlfriend…etc…

My gf is in Iraq right now…she is on her second tour, a Marine…and since she has been gone I haven’t really been myself….

Today was the first good day in a long time…I have things to be happy about and look forward too…I lost that in the whole craziness of the deployment….

…but for the first time in a while I felt like I was breathing again….

…it was a good day…
