Like, whoa

We are back. In the past two weeks I have flown to Idaho with Blue, flown to LA by myself, and driven to Oregon with Evan and Blue (and Evan's sister and her boyfriend.) Also I hosted two separate gatherings of LJ people at my house, and packed and unpacked numerous times. I stayed up super late having a great conversation last night, and now I am at work trying to get my head around what I am supposed to do. I would really love to post something but I don't feel like I can even get started. There is just too much going on! :D

I'm glad you are home, safe and sound!

Just wanted to say I love you and thank you for opening your home. I look forward to meeting again. :-)

I feel like I want to say comforting words to you re: George. And I don't know what to say. I wanted to say more yesterday to you in person but I just...I don't know. Maybe it's hitting me hard too because of my Aunt being so close to death and my grandmother's health deteriorating significantly as well and I just have found nothing of real substance to say about it. It's numbing, isn't it? The "luxury" we have of being able to distance ourselves from it all physically and emotionally is both curse and blessing. I feel I can't do enough and yet nothing would ever be enough because there is nothing to do except for letting time and God and what have you have their way which feels scary and unsettling.

I *do* know one thing is for absolute certain. I would so love to see and/or talk with you more often or at least on a regular basis or something. To laugh and cry and just be you know (girl)friends. I want to propose maybe a monthly get together of some sort. Sundays works fine. We could do brunch maybe alternating houses or something. Or going to the park or some such. (EVRC is closed on Suns)...

Hey, I added you. Hope that's ok. It was so great to meet you and your family. Thanks for opening your home to the craziness.

I've also added you, I hope that's cool. We have a few friends in common, including Erin (vagynafondue) who lives right by me, but mainly because when tellinellen sings someone's praises I know that they're someone definitely worth knowing. She's never steered me wrong. :) (Plus I've always dug you on various mom communities.)

OMG, you know Erin? She is the coolest person! I am jealous! :) And yes, of course it's cool. I noticed you don't LJ but I added your RSS feed so hopefully will get a chance to get to know you. I put you on some of my filters too. :)

Thank you.

And sadly, I haven't met Erin in person. I'd like to. I'm in the city this summer and I keep driving by her house and thinking "I'm just gonna stop and knock on her door and say hi" and then I think "Dreama, that's stalker behavior." Not that I'm exactly sure which house is hers, anyway. :)

Dude, you should totally stalk her! She'd be flattered. But I wonder if H has a shotgun.
