Hi Mags, glad you'll be around more.
Itchy, thanks for that long post, makes me think.
More and more as I contemplate what I want to "do with my life", people tell me how lucky I am that I don't have any responsibilities, no kids, no obligations to anyone but myself. I agree, I am lucky, I have many options open to me. But what they don't realize is that it comes out of years of being sick and unable to have anyone in my life, really. So while I'm glad to be where I am it's also with the knowledge that I'm kind of starting from scratch.
Again, a position I realize a lot of people would kill for.
I feel almost overwhelmed with choice, sometimes. For now I'm going to enjoy living a life that I've dreamed of many times in the past, and be thankful that I'm here, somehow. It has not been an easy road, but I'm getting to a place where I respect myself and want to do what's best for me. It's always been about chasing love, filling some empty space. I think it's time to just enjoy being on this "spaceship earth" and let all the other crap slide.

It's Friday everyone. Sweet, sweet Friday.
