This year keeps getting stranger and stranger. Yesterday I went to check my email while I was at Quiet Storm and I had a message waiting from BRIAN FEE! Now, this may not be shocking to anyone else, but I've been searching for him for at least 5 years ... he's one of those friends that I misplaced somewhere along the way and never quite managed to relocate. I just ... wow. I was pounding the counter top and hollering and I explained to Lynn why I was so excited, but really, there were just no words to explain. Brian fucking Fee. Hallelujah.

I was also hoping to see Matthu, and of course as I was thinking that, he immediately walked in. He's a very strange boy. Everything that comes out of his mouth seems stranger than the thing before it. And perhaps the oddest thing about this is that he really reminds me of someone. It simply must be someone from Antioch. There's no other explanation.

In other random news, m00nshadow sent me the world's funniest holiday gift. I opened it in the hallway of my building and literally fell to the floor laughing. I want to post a picture of it rather than explaining what it is. Suffice to say, it is, among other things, a thorough thumbing of the nose to He Who Shall Remain Nameless.

Which is another sore subject du jour. I've been randomly weeping again. It prompted an oddly emotional email to Peezy (which is fine, as Peezy can be oddly emotional himself), but what's really been brewing is another one of my little missives to H.W.S.R.N. I can't keep going on like this. I feel so emotionally raw, and it just seems so neverending. When ... when? ... when am I going to be over this?

So I'm off to Quiet Storm to brunch and to ponder these things which I have set before you. Brunching companions are welcome. Advice is welcome.

Blah blah blah blah blah blah.
