Back With My Bud

I always get a sense of excitement and cheery anticipation with the possibility of being with you again. When this photo was taken, after searching all over the bloody county for wig heads or any thing that resembled a mask, I remember how wonderful it was that I was able to carve out the time to spend with you and looked forward to the pride I would feel having you close to me: drown in that easy love that we seemed to share so readily. It was nice to for us to be a Dad/Daughter team and, in some small way, help others. But mostly, I remember just being with you and thinking how perfect it is to have a Bud like you.

Now, balancing work and friends and personal agendas, we must negotiate for special moments – get the requisite hall passes from all the various compartments and, indeed, time itself. But the notion that we will be together again soon makes me hope that I will live a long time just to experience our special bond over and over and over and over again. XOXO Love you so. Dad

once again home.

i am so looking forward to coming home once again.
each time i return there are new things i appreciate,
different things i notice,
new ways of doing things,
new places to go.
but always the same lovely people to see.
i can't wait to see you and spend time with you and cuddle and laugh and go on adventures.
i can't wait.
i love you daddy.

thank god it's over!!!

halloween can suck it for all i am concerned. Four fucking days of costumes, drunk people, parties, yelling, makeup, fake blood, more drinking, more costumes, pumpkins, candy, more drinking more screaming more more more.... now it's finally over. I can't even tell you what blur the past few days have been. Between work and play it has been a non stop roller coster of crapy weather, drinking like a fish, cooking like a servant, serving like a maid, and washing dishes like well, a dishwasher. Ok, all this might be a bit harsh because I had fun along the way, but jesus fucking christ halloween weekend '11 was a doosy. I also am having some serious back difficulties, so I am not really enjoying my physical situation. However, some lovely percacets from Shelley have been helping through the really rough times. Also, the peanut butter that I am eating by the spoonful is putting me in pretty good spirits as I type. Nothing like being a great chef with nothing in your fridge to cook and only wanting or needing something that requires a spoon and the strength to scoop and bring to one's mouth. I gotta tell ya it is hitting the spot right now. Admittedly I have become quite keen on almond, sunflower or cashew butter, but the original classic pb is doing the trick(no halloween pun intended).
Now that one holiday is past us we can all look forward to THANKSGIVING!!!
