bored and lonely

feeling the need to speak into the void. how long do i settle for distractions - for hulu and knitting - before i get down to doing what i really want to do? to living the life i really want to live?

i've been so afraid of earthquakes lately.
and i've been feeling light-headed. a dizzy moment- Is that it? Is the world shaking? Or am I just having trouble finding my footing?

I miss you, though this too is a distraction. I assume you don't miss me. I assume your uncanny ability to accept your present condition prohibits you from feeling the ache of wishing things were not as they are.

It's very windy. The windows are rattling.
And a helicopter is buzzing outside.
Seems like there's been a lot of helicopter and plane noise. New flight patterns? Or am I just starting to listen?
