life is good
man.
i tell you what.
given the extremes of the past six months, really... no... the past two years... today was remarkable and yet so sublime... perfection. greatness.
i went to work a bit early because i knew i had tomorrow off and wanted to clear my desk of the important shite. then came the three hours of downtime whilst i tried to gain my tix to ttitd. sucessful, at 2:47.
finish off the remaining work and then meet friends for drinks.
...on account of my birthday.
i mean... jesus...
people came out to spend the evening with me?
you don't know how much this means to me. you, my chosen family... and you choosing me... i have no. no words... words fail... even you - especially you who could not make it, but i felt you here anyway...
fuck, i am all weepy now, but please understand how important this is to me.
there are not adequate words.
second, introducing my blood family to my chosen family for really the first time and watching that alchemy work.
comment: 'you should invite them to covers and blankets', in regard to my blood family.
amazing.
amazing because i always knew my blood family would accept my chosen family, that's just how they are.
...what i always hung up on was if my friends would or could accept my family... and it turns out that they can, and with open arms.
i am so blessed with love.
so amazingly blessed. i wonder what i have ever done to deserve this treatment.
an amazing day, i have been in high spirits all day. tomorrow looks to be just as great, my house sale is closing and my sister is taking me skiing.
i want you to know i love you all.
you know who you are, please take this to heart.
...and if you are unsure, please stop me sometime and look in my eyes.
you'll know.
xoxo,

Nice post, Warp-up. Resonates with what my brother was just telling me: Every single moment is stupendous if your present enough to notice and when you are thinking about how things were, how they will be, or how you want them, it's not. Jeesh, I wish I could be more present with you...but I'm in Philly.
Happy birthday, dear friend. I wish I could have been there, sounds wonderful!
i thank You God for most this amazing
day:for the leaping greenly spirits of trees
and a blue true dream of sky;and for everything
wich is natural which is infinite which is yes
(i who have died am alive again today,
and this is the sun's birthday;this is the birth
day of life and love and wings:and of the gay
great happening illimitably earth)
how should tasting touching hearing seeing
breathing any-lifted from the no
of all nothing-human merely being
doubt unimaginable You?
(now the ears of my ears awake and
now the eyes of my eyes are opened)

Ps-I am so happy for you~~ that I thought that if *you*can't say it, then e.e. cummings might be able to-Grin*
