Hello!
How are you?? Its been ages since we've spoken!! I'd like to think I've changed ever so drastically, yet stayed the same person you always knew. I feel old in many ways, and so young in others. I've grown past the wild and endless days of energy and vigor, to have them replaced with a sense of longing. I find myself slipping into the occassional melancholy over what appears now to be wasted time and effort in pursuit of something I never really wanted anyway. I have a job waitressing which really translates to walking in circles all day, carrying heavy plates and attempting to dodge customer criticisms and bad tips. I make enough money to be satisfied, but I'm not working full time. I'd like to have a second job, an office type job I can work weekday mornings at so as to not interfere with the days I actually make money at my current job. My search for said second job is not going so well, but I'm making further endeavors next week with several temp agencies.
In other news I have a wonderful boyfriend. The term sounds so passe, and I'd rather call him my partner. We have a plan for the semi-near future, the slightly-more-distant future and more vague long term plans. Its a good relationship, and I'm finally comfortable with having stability in my life. I always objected so harshly to it before now. Somehow this time it feels right, and it still feels adventurous. He's very supportive of my various endeavors. I'm working in my spare time on a series of haikus, and a several collages. Perhaps there are dreams of published works and art showings in my mind, but I'll keep them to myself. Anyway thats all for now. Over and out.
-Claire
