I’m not scared to be alone, but I’m happier with someone by my side to do play-by-plays and laugh with. I have beat myself up so much for this; I have told myself endlessly that I don’t need love and since I’m so smart I should be above all of that. I’ve met a girl who fits me well (and I know because I’m not trying to figure her out all the time but just enjoying her company, usually without the chorus of naysayers in my head and their associated mischief; that and my MySpace page has been the same for a month) and it’s a happy, comfortable bond.
Sometimes I think the smarter I think I am, the more of a nit I’ve become. I’ve become a bad procrastinator, but instead of going easy on myself after the death of both my grandparents, a divorce (however amicable and friendly), my first (and last) excruciating heartbreak, and burnout after Hurricane Wilma, I pound on myself until there’s tears. How on Earth can anyone accomplish anything in that kind of frenzied state? I don’t know, but I’m going to clean the house before my pals get here tonight and just relax. The world’s problems aren’t going to be solved tonight.
