There’s so much more about you that you never let them see
You turn away
But not to me
And I know how they tried to take you
Held you up and meant to break you down
But you can’t be

One of the prettier Goo Goo Dolls tunes. I don’t know what to make of the scattered feelings it conjures. Who it should remind me of…

It certainly isn’t the X’s. I don’t think of them very often anymore. It’s not Audrey. So the only conclusion I can derive is it someone I haven’t met yet.

For so long I tried to reach you
I know I’m almost there
I’m close enough for you to see

The May trip to ‘Vegas is starting to firm up. Details details details. It is starting to look like my primary responsibility will be in driving. Time to load up the iPod with books and away we go. Things are still changing but it looks like I will be flying back. The guy I am helping move was one of my first bosses a million years ago.

He has even offered to detour as far south as San Antonio, we have a mutual friend down there not to mention my son lives in that area of Texas.

Unfortunately I am pretty task oriented. Which for me means MOVE HIS SHIT TO LAS VEGAS. Then get on a plane and come home.

I have already checked with the folks to make sure they were going to be around if I needed a pickup at the airport. Still a lot of balls in the air for my friend, and he has promised to keep me in the loop.

As the snow started tonight I went to the store to get a turkey pot pie (Sunday tradition). This song came on and I realized independently, three friends who I met in three phases of my life all said to me “You don’t do anything the easy way, do you?”

Paraphrasing of course. But the gist was there.

No. I don’t suppose I do.

But then again. How fucking boring would that be?

Another Sunday. Another snowstorm. Another day wondering when I am going to figure it out.

Brush back your hair and look around you
Feeling like the truth has found you here
You’re here with me
Let love become the mirror
With no fear where you’re from
You have become beautiful

Let me in.
