Maybe it's this presence of spring lurking just arround the corner that has these has me thinking these thoughts. That has me daydreaming in my sleep. That has me doodling a variety of hearts on the margins of college ruled notebook paper (that should most likely be otherwise used for statistics formulas). Perhaps its just that evolutionary drive to be fruitful and multiply kicking in or perhaps its that media driven image of happiness imprinted in my mind. Perhaps it is that simple. Perhaps. Whatever the case may be, what was once a passing query that happened to wander into my mind from time to time has infact itself procreated .. replicated.. and proliferated it's way into occupying every empy inch of it. Four little letters meant to encompass an infinite emotion. l o v e
Where is it and why hasn't it found me?(i am a strong believer that you dont find love.. that it finds you in cause your wondering at the phrasing)Now this should by no means implicate that I am not loved. Far from it. I'm surrounded by love in various forms from various faces. Whether it be familial or friendly, I am loved... but (you did see that comming didnt you?) I seem to be lacking in love when it comes to that significant other. Now im not so delusional that I'm asking the universe to send me my soulmate(if those do happen to exist) packaged up in a pretty blue bow deliverd to my doorstep. Lets face it, even if it did, with my luck I'd probably miss the delivery and it'd be returned to sender. No, all im asking is to be given a damn break.
I was thinking about this the other day and I realized that I've been dating for a decade. An entire decade. Decade. Am I the only one who grasps the definitve nature of that word? Not to say they've been in vain. I made some mistakes (okay a load of mistakes), learned some lessons, and recieved some great memories but 10 years of dating and im no closer to this love thing than I was when I was at 12. Im tired. Tired of the let downs. Tired of waiting. Tired. Now I might be okay with this whole single thing if it wasn't for the fact that Im repetedly force fed images of "happy couples". Happy couples hugging. Happy couples kissing. Happy couples holding hands. Im not trying to state that relationships are easy or that all couples are perfectly "happy". They're not and truth is if and when Im in one, I'll probably be complaining about it. But I think I should be given a shot. As my roomate stated ever so eloquently, "We're cool girls". Why doesn't someone want to hold my hand? Maybe one of these days I'll figure it out but untill then Im left watching the couples pass me by thinking ...must be nice...
You might be thinking that my standards are just too high. It could be said that a lifetime of reading novels has left me with something more than an adaquate vocabulary. Its left me with this grandiose delusion of what love's supposed to be. Maybe I should bring myself back to reality. Maybe I should. Maybe.... but maybe not. I think Carrie said it best
Some people are settling down, some are settling, and some people refuse to settle for anything less
than butterflies....
I guess I'm still waiting for butterflies..

The Emancipation of Absolut
It's been a long time... shouldn't have left you
So you're probably wondering what cliff I fell off...what cave I went into.. or more generally where the hell did I go? Well, there have been certain developments since the last time I wrote which has created some pretty significant changes in my life. I call it the end of an era (or perhaps I should consider it the beggining of a new one) Any way you want to phrase it, the truth of the matter remains the same. I am officially no longer a pedestrian. That's right, with the help of my brother (who i love eternally), I have regained the use of my one and only love, my car. Those days where I had to wait in line during rain, snow, and sleet for the Q 10 are now jus remnants of a long ago past. No longer will I have to be rubbed up against on the Q 46 by strange unabomberesque passengers. No longer will I have to contend with 40 year old hispanic men undressing me with their eyes (well at least not on the bus). And perhaps the most awaited improvement, no longer will I have to face the Beep Beep I See Yous!
Now you probably thinking "Absolut, what the hell is the Beep Beep I See You?" But more than likely you've either pulled a Beep Beep I See You or been a victim of it. What is it? Where did it originate? Why does it happen? And how can I do my part in preventing it from spreading? (woah.. easy there tiger.. one question at a time) Let's start with the basics. The Beep Beep I See You is just what it says. The drive by version "Ey Mami". It occurs when one is standing or walking along a road and some fellow driving by feels that irrisitble urge to beep at you. No one knows just exactly when this incident was first recorded but I believe arround the same time man discovered the automobile, he also discovered a new way to irk female. What makes this gesture so especially heinous is that he knows and you know that he is in no position to slow down and start a conversation with you about your position on the future of social security or at the least execute a lame attempt to get your number. Blame it on physics but unless you're at a stop light or in bumper to bumper traffic, it's not going to happen. So my big question was WHY? What does it accomplish? All that my girls and I could gather is that the guy is letting us know that he see us (ergo.. the beep beep i see you) . Ahm.. okay. And? Are you going to help us out with the ten bags we're carrying? No? Then WHY? I remember one guy driving past me and my friends at about 30 mph and yelling out "Want a ride? No? Fuck you then!" without even taking a breath as if he already knew we were going to reject him. I've even seen a guy beep at a pregnant woman pushing a stroller. WHY? Isn't it obvious she's got a little much going on there? So why fellas? Why? Is this what they taught you when the split up the class in Sex Ed? The finer methods of harrassing the female species? Perhaps my lack of phallus leaves me with the unfortunate inability to understand it. Now although my trials with the Beep Beep I See You have been minimized, the battle is nowhere near won for the rest of female kind. And with the beginning of spring, I see the incident numbers incining exponentially. So in an effort to reduce the epidemic, I ask you males to reduce if not stop the Beeping. There's just no reason for it. In terms you can perhaps understand better
Cut that shit out!
