I am a quote person...
Here are some of my favorites:

"Sometimes, the best way to figure out who you are is to get to that place where you don't have to be anything else."

"For hours I'll just stare at my ceiling, at nothing at all, and think of you."
-Stabbing Westward

"A kiss is something you cannot give without taking, and cannot take without giving."

"What lies behind us and what lies before us are tiny matters compared to what lies within us."
-Ralph Waldo Emerson

"Heaven gives its glimpses only to those not in position to look too close."
-Robert Frost

"Deep within I'm shaken by the violence of existing for only you."
-Sarah McLachlan

"If you ever fall off the Sears Tower, just go real limp, because maybe you'll look like a dummy, and people will try to catch you because, hey...free dummy."

"It's folly to pretend that one wholly recovers
From a disappointed passion.
Such wonders always leave a scar.
There are faces I can never look upon without emotion;
There are names I can never hear spoken
Without almost starting to cry."
-Longfellow










One of my most treasured possessions is my Claddagh ring. It was given to me by someone who used to be a big part of my life. What the ring stands for is something that should always be present in any relationship.

The hands are there for friendship,
The heart is there for love,
For loyalty throughout the year,
The crown is raised above.

Here's the dilly in my life, yo:
Okay, so I've moved 4 times in less than 2 years between Denver and Colorado Springs. It's like I can't stop! But I'm back in Denver, and I love my new place. Hopefully I'll stick with it for a while. I'm still at my same job, and I still have my cat. Life is good. I see my family more, and that's lovely. It's nice to have them near so I can just pop by for a visit now and then. Other than that, I work during the day, Monday through Friday, and then the night is just for me.

All in all, I'm just taking things one day at a time.
But isn't that what we all do, anyway?
