Reunions

August and January seem to be months of reunions. Why people choose the days with the shortest days and alternatively the hottest days of the years to catch up with people puzzles me sometimes.

The month started with a visit from Cosmo and Sapporo.

Then Manhattan came.

Then Lone Star and I went to our ten year high school reunion.

My lungs are a little blacker, my gains at the gym a little less noticeable, and my bank account needed some creative financing to maintain positive cash flow.

I have had a good time. I have been reassessing my life (even more than before).

I am Scherzkecks, hear me roar!

My class reunion has made me want to accomplish... something. Not sure what, but I have to start doing more with my life. Immediately. Right now. Of course, over the past three, actually four years (!) since I've returned from Japan have gotten things more in line with how I want them to be. Still, some force keeps me from taking on something really ballsy. Sure, taking the film class was a big step, going to therapy was a big step, coming out was a huge step. I can't really say that I'm disappointed in myself. I just think I'm capable of doing much more.

Of well. I've lost some steam now. This cold isn't helping. Summer colds are the worst. Mom was telling me about sucking on zinc pills.

Listening to this new rjd2 cd that Dos XXs just bought. So far DosXXs has been a great roommate.

Alright off to bed, time for zinc tablets and Alka Seltzer Cold & Sinus.

Peace

Mental Note: schedule coffee with RedStripe. Long overdue. Send e-mail to G&T in Italy.
