It’s good to read your list. Mine is similar. It passes…

There was a dude in Annapolis who walked around — well, stomped around — shaking plastic bags. I don’t know why, but I get the feeling it was important work, that bag shaking.

Glad you’re feeling the happy. Send some my way?

I think I speak for everyone when I say if you’re happy, your readers are happy. Yay for you!

yeah, there ain’t no fightin’ no. 12.
it’s funny. i have a friend who once told me that i seemed too happy on my blog–me, too happy! but i think what he was getting at is that the angsty shit makes for more heartfelt and “interesting” writing, which it probably does.

but who is the blog for, you or us? you’ve got to write what you feel, and dammit, if you feel happy, then by god write happy! i mean, if everyone was a depressed soul like myself then what would this world be like? i shudder to think!

2,3,4,7 and 9 are related and would be solved in one fell swoop by finding the house of your dreams closer to work and in a beach suburb (let’s call this H of D). 2 is a wise move at this point however and will enable you to do as headbang suggests and wait til the market is just right and H of D is at the best price.
5 is called variety.
8 and 11 are luxuries which need to be forgone in order to achieve H of D thus solving 2,3,4,7 and 9.
1 is kind of also in this category and anyway, wassup? You don’t like the car???? 10 will pass.

6 and 12 are real issues and there just ain’t no gettin’ away from them.

Oh and crazy people always sit next to me on the bus.

My crazy man story is the guy in Costco who was talking to the Kikkoman soy sauce.

I’ve never thought about soy sauce the same way since.

Anyway, enjoy your winter. I’m not sure you could tell the difference between winter and summer here, it’s been so cool.

It brings to mind Sarah McLachlan’s Possession “Would I spend forever here and not be satisfied.” I often feel the same as you. When you start listing all the overwhelming things, it starts to feel overwhelming. Sometimes you just have to focus on the little things that make you smile. It sounds as if you are doing an excellent job of that. You can be unhappy everywhere, or happy anywhere. It is all perspective. It just gets hard sometimes.

Transit in the Bay Area seems to always come with at least one crazy person. And it’s best if it’s only one, because if they’re are two crazy people trying to occupy the same space, all hell can break loose. Around here they can be very territorial.
Most of the crazies around here seem harmless, like this guy who seems to walk loops around our neighborhood everyday. Then there are the scary ones, like the guy we saw walking down the street one day who was biting his lip so hard he had blood running down this face. I kind of miss the mid-west and general lack of crazies out strolling about, probably because of the weather.

Whew! I’m glad you put that last bit in, I was beginning to think an imposter had taken over cdv.com! All that happy talk…
When I was little, our town had a famous lady everyone called “Crazy Louise.” She was entertaining from a distance, carrying on animated conversations with cigarette billboards and stuff. The rumour always was that you shouldn’t get too close, though, because she carried a brick in her purse and would whack you with it. The highlight of any kid’s day was a Crazy Louise sighting.

Oh, and Jeff’s been bummed lately, because our mobile service provider doesn’t support the iPhone. The closest thing they offer is a blackberry curve, and let’s just face it, it isn’t NEARLY as cool.

Quality is better than quantity! (says the paid post whore).
Besides with the trip and getting ready for it I have no time to read or comment, so if you slow down I have less catch ups to do once a week!
