quickly the rain passes
1. i am enjoying this humid, warm weather. it reminds me of spring in the midwest.
2. i wrote this on facebook yesterday, feeling a bit overwhelmed and behind on life:
it’s more like feeling out of sync than behind, i guess. it’s one of those days where i’m like … i’m 32. i am not married. i have no children. i have not been to graduate school. i do not own a car. or a house. and i do not intend to do any of those things. so what do i intend to do then?! i am not really a laissez-faire person, but for some reason i’ve been living my life that way.
i am tired of writing things like this (and i’m sure many of my friends are tired of hearing it by now). something’s got to give.

or they’ll make them up
for you.
Just once I’d like to hear
a brand-new question.”

I have a special, special love in my heart for Rod McKuen. I am happy that you quoted him here.
You don’t own a car? Do you not have the jetta anymore? Or do you just mean it’s not paid off?
jay owns the car. i just drive it
I do own a car, own a house, been married and have kids but once in a while I still feel as if something is missing. Doing it “the right way” (according to ?someone?) isn’t always the answer….it’s whatever makes you happy. Keep your chin up, Amy.
As a new car owner (from 4 years running) it’s exactly the double edged sword I remember. So expensive, such convenience.
And give? Give what?
