for a change. a new place, new faces.
it's like last year is as far away as another lifetime.
changes. changes. and more changes. i can roll with them.

okay. i've been busy, working my last 2 weeks of the present job while starting a new job. worked an extra 24 hours this week in addition to the 36.
this week will finally be my last week working in GP and so it's back to specialty, overnights. the new job is a short drive from my apartment. it'll save me subway fare and most importantly...TIME. more time to sleep so that i'm not a working zombie.
let's see if THIS is the place i retire from...

sis and niece will be moving to PA. that sucks!

currently listening to aol radio, top songs of 1985. gotta love A-HA. what a classic video (take on me).

i freaked myself out when i said out loud that i'll be 45 this year.
shit. just freaked myself out again...

seriously. life is a persistent little fucker. it keeps going. even after you're long dead gone.
i miss the past. when it was kind of crazy (emotionally for me) but it still felt kind of cozy. or at least I was cozy, cushioned by naivete...taking way too much time trying to figure out what i wanted to do with my life...while drinking too much, constantly in love or lust and generally living irresponsibly. the music...i'd get lost in by myself, with friends, or with the love of my life. i can say, the 80's housed some of the best times of my life.
what is different now?
well, back then, i was hopeful.
