every time you try to find yourself you lose a little bit of me.

October 19th, 2002 · View Comments

I’m working on putting my pictures together from camping (I like big projects, but I’ve been busy).

I’m making a cake for Tom’s birthday (today, make sure you wish him a happy birthday).

I’ve been thinking of connections. What connects me to you? Where do those connections lie and how far can I stretch them before they snap? Jeremy and I can go years without seeing each other, yet when he’s back I feel like he’s never been gone. Time doesn’t touch it. Jax, I miss her, and sometimes it’s a little wierd, but only ’cause I’m jealous of time. I lived with her for a year. I’m jealous of that younger me who saw her every day. Chris couldn’t remain my friend with a country and so much time between us. With everyone leaving SF now, and my consideration of it, I wonder … in ten years who will still write me letters?

But I suppose there’s only one way to find out: Get Tony from Real Life to loan me his time machine. (Did you know that Greg has the car I want… yeah, but I want mine to be green.)

  • hey! you're not supposed to make me cry just from reading your site.

    did i ever tell you how much i love you? you've got an amazing ability to remind me of that at just the right intervals of time. not like i ever forget, but it just becomes a concept sometimes, and then you say something to make me feel it all the way from san francisco.

    btw i'm reading Small Pieces Loosely Joined (a unified theory of the web) right now - http://www.smallpieces.com

    oh and how do i enable TrackBack on my site?
