dropping tears into oceans

last book i've read: I'd like to begin Water for Elephants by Sara Gruen. Any day now....
currently caressing my ears: a basketball game
general mood: relaxed, contemplative
quote: "Where you used to be, there is a hole in the world, which I find myself constantly walking around in the daytime, and falling in at night. I miss you like hell." --Edna St Vincent Millay
and
"Absence diminishes little passions and increases great ones, as the wind extinguishes candles and fans a fire." --Francois Duc de la Rochefoucauld, translated from French

I adopted the kitten I discussed previously, changing her name to Maya. I've always loved the name, and my parent's cat had that name until it was discovered that he was a boy. Then he became Simba. We're not very creative, but we're not out to impress. Besides, I love my cat. She's a headbutter. She'll headbutt you when you're not watching, and then purr up a storm next to you. Lovely moments in life.

I love the local live music scene here in Oshkosh. I just discovered the Reptile Lounge or whatever it's called on High St. And I got to see the Southside Stranglers. Pretty rockin' stuff, right up my alley. I also had the pleasure of meeting some pretty rockin' folk, which I always enjoy. Gay roommates, boys with emo glasses, and chilled hometowners are always my faves.

The full moon has lead me to spill my guts, and for now, that's okay. Hope my insides are pretty to someone, just one.
