She kinda takes my breath away.

A planetarium with a view.
For anyone who doesn’t know, the Adler Planetarium has the best (not-from-a-boat-on-the-lake) view of the Chicago skyline. *My view was even better because I had my partner in crime with me.
Playing the odds. Sooner or later, someone has to accept… right?

Philip Glass isn’t for everybody, but he’s a hero of mine. This is a beautiful piece of art. It is the final piece from his 5+ hour-long masterpiece. Text by Mr. Samuel Johnson.
Finally she spoke:
“Do you love me, John?” she asked.“You know I love you, darling.” he replied.
“I love you more than tongue can tell. You are the light of my life, my sun, moon and stars. You are my everything. Without you I have no reason for being.”Again there was silence as the two lovers sat on a park bench, their bodies touching, holding handls in the moonlight. Once more she spoke.
“How much do you love me, John?” she asked.
He answered:
“How much do I love you? Count the stars in the sky. Measure the waters of the oceans with a teaspoon. Number the grains of sand on the sea shore. Impossible, you say. Yes and it is just as impossible for me to say how much I love you.“My love for you is higher than the heavens, deeper than Hades, and broader than the earth. It has no limits, no bounds. Everything must have an ending except my love for you.”
There was more of silence as the two lovers sat on a park bench with their bodies touching, holding hands in the moonlight. Once more her voice was heard.
“Kiss me, John” she implored.
And leaning over, he pressed his lips warmly to hers in fervent osculation.
It’s over.
The end of any relationship brings waves of memories from all over the emotional spectrum. I’m going to try my hardest to let the negative ones leave as quickly as they arrive and let the positive ones linger long enough to sustain my self-confidence.
I did all the right things. I stepped far outside my comfort zone. I took a chance and dove in head first. The water was the perfect temperature but I had no way of knowing what rested beneath the surface nor the number of lions that drank from its shore.
Truthful Tuesday
- I am really struggling lately, emotionally.
- A lot of the people I care about are also having a difficult time.
- Not being able to make them feel better only adds to my sadness.
- Sometimes I just need a shoulder to cry on and a chance to clear my mind to a sympathetic ear.
- I don’t enjoy burdening my friends with my own inability to cope with the voices in my head, and so…
- For the first time in my life I am seriously considering seeing a therapist.
- Maybe it will be good. Maybe it will be bad. We’ll see.
She said yes!
True love knows no borders. Congratulations to two of my favorite people.

David Bazan - Won’t Let Go
Who or what controls the fates of men I cannot say
But I keep arriving safely home to youAnd I humbly acknowledge that I won’t always get my way
But darling death will have to pry my fingers loose‘Cause I will not let go
I will not let go
I will not let go of you
Happy Valentine’s Day to you all.

I’m not the one you dream about
And I’m not the one you can’t live without
I’m not the one who you wanna see
I’m not the one who you want to be seen with
And when you’re tired of all the jerks
And you’re tired of all the work
And you’re tired of being hurt
You will long for the comfort of my golf shirt
I’m not the one who was an old time punk rocker
I was listening to Rush and trying to feather my hair back
When all that stuff went down
I’m not the one who was in a high school hardcore band
I sat in my room scoring with Ms. Pac-Man
And when you’re tired of all the jerks
And you’re tired of all the work
And you’re tired of being hurt
You will long for the comfort of my golf shirt
No tats, no piercings, no hats, no grunge beard baby, yeah
