Fulfillment

Thursday, December 31st, 2009

I have been seeking fulfillment in my life. That’s where my last post and the doubts/questions I had came from. Religion is my fulfillment fallback.
I spent a couple of days languishing over the idea of returning to the church when it hit me – it was only when I was talking to someone who I [...]

Still Reeling

Wednesday, December 23rd, 2009

I was completely and totally thrown for a loop tonight. Thanks to facebook, I reconnected with my ex tonight. My first ex. The one I haven’t spoken to since the night he broke up with me 9 years ago. The one I never really understood why we broke up in the first place.

Julie and Julia: The Movie

Wednesday, December 9th, 2009

Finally got to see Julie and Julia tonight. It was amazing. I imagine folks who saw it without having read the book first were less impressed than I, but I loved it.
