I have moved, kinda. I'm still in the state of moving some of my stuff. I really don't like moving because I'm forced to look at the crap I own as material I don't need. It gives me the chance to see the things I hang on too and ask, why is this here, why did I buy it and why do I feel the need to keep it around. I have way too many books I have already read and projects I don't have the time to complete. I'm in North Scottdale now. The side of town that people of my income bracket really stick out with. Unable to have a kitty on our own, Athena and I decided to adopt. We have picked up a satanic little kitty that seemed so well mannered at the time I couldn't see the little squirrel for who he really was. At night he sounds like a racoon in the trash can's with the noises he makes. I don't know how I feel about declawing a ferrel cat like this. I have more open wounds than Acounta-Kente from roots right now and the prosect of raising this skin shredder in the home of two people that are either thin skinned or hemophiliac is becoming obvious. I'll post pics when I get home. Athena's friend got married the other day and I don't know who is having the most trouble adjusting to that fact. I'm really enjoying the move and all the peripheral benifits of living with someone I really enjoy, but it really highlights my low points making all the work of progress I thought I had made irrellevant. I believe that every person thinks they are right regardless and I'm open to the possibility I could be wrong on occation, but based on the mistakes i have made I'm seriously wondering how much of what I do I self justify because I know I'm right or if I'm actually wrong. All my job prospects didn't pan out, so I have to come from another angle. I was offered a shot at a job I don't know if I want on accident again. The pay is great, but the liability is too high to last. Back to the drawing board. I need a laboratory of schematics to figure out the basics of life. How can there be so many books covering what should come so natural from the 1000's of years of evolution. Lifes variables are becoming increasingly differential. I'll post more when I get home so I can access my plethora of pictures because as much as I write, I couldn't possibly articulate in such a limited format how happy I am. Not only are Athena and I going out officially, we are doing well. We are very complementary and the things we have in common often are the topic of conversation. The only thing I have to work on is the things that I have. She is a wonderful woman and I feel very lucky to have the time to share with her.
