if I were any older I would act my age

but I don't think that you believe
and it's not the way I'm meant to be
it's just the way the operation made me

so things have been going on, as they do. it's August already and this has caused much surprise on my end. where did July go?

I'm writing and publishing and generically being busy with good things. tonight mom and I went to dinner and I had BBQ -- which I love, though I hate to admit it. we got back from a hellacious road trip the other night and surprisingly I'm glad to be back, even if it's only happiness over being in one place for any period of time and not the fact of being in Powell River itself.

I'm excited about moving to Nanaimo in mid-late August and going back to school in Sept. I've decided that after my BA I'm going for an LLB -- that's a law degree, if you're curious. yes, I plan on becoming a lawyer. crazy? probably. I also lack pattern recognition, as the great clusterfuck of my past can tell you. ah well. I think I'll be better at it than my parents were -- for one, I won't marry a fellow lawyer.

following that thought I won't marry at all, ever. there's no point. I've realized that there is a certain formula to having that lifelong amazing relationship where two become one, and my life lacks that formula. always has. always will. and so there is no point to marrying for love or romance or any of those childish ideas -- they don't exist in real life, not really.

now, when it comes to marrying for citizenship, I'm still open to that, though it'll probably be exclusive to Ryan. so whenever you want to get your skinny arse up here to Canada for citizenship, boyo, just let me know. we'd be great spouses, methinks.

my hair is now teal, and I've been seriously considering doing Joker for Halloween. but I'm not sure Powell River deserves my genius, so I may just go back down to Nanaimo for the 31st. (poetry slam is the 30th, so I have to be up here.)

so. that's what's happening for me right now. oh, and I got a cell phone. yay.

and I'm tired, so I'm heading home to sleep now. maybe tomorrow I won't wake up with a migraine.
