crying myself silly packing up today, and watching the movers haul away the furniture and boxes to the new place

I didn't mention that... but details later, suffice to say, I'm moving today out of the little cottage I'd fallen in love with, into a much larger place with Caydin and my other bf Mark and my sis Kitrina...

knowing that Cay is going to be gone for a while with her tribe and I won't be seeing her...

hurt more to pack her things up

and all the memories

shar and sarny over to give me their opinions

aiko... with all the wonderful things she gave me

all of it

and I'll miss it

but there is always tomorrow

i love all you, my friends, who warmed that place and made it so special

You're so very special to me, in a few ways I can never have hope to express to you in person.

I know you agonize when you're not with me; you made that clear to me tonight...

I also appreciate you knowing that I must be shared with Caydin, with Jenevive, with Sarny... and are willing to work with that.

You do make me feel pampered and I like it.

I've always wanted to be someone's tributed lady. I really have. I've never had that before. I'm usually in things as equals.

Don't get me wrong, we're equals too, but...

I don't know.

I'm still all knotted up inside trying to figure out what to say right


but I do love you too...

When a human you half-know is into you enough that they willingly undergo an I'm-sure painful transformation into a white tiger...

How am I to interpret that?

He's nice and very conversational and intelligent and fun to be with when I'm in the sort of mood to want to be with someone of his nature.

He also clearly understands the cat nature.

On another note, today has been the first day I've needed to wear my coat. Yes, I know I have fur. It's redundant. But I also look strange walking around amongst the humans wearing my customary shorts or skirts or whatnot. I may have black fur and whiskers but I don't want to be -that- much of a standout. Strange as it is I actually kinda blend in like this.

It was snowing a little at my house this morning when I got up... actually, it started last night when Caydin and I went to bed, and luckily hasn't stuck (so far).

Yay to Caydin, for thinking of something I hadn't thought of and then showing me where I could get it. Heehee :)

I...
have no idea what to get Sarny for Catmas. Christmas. Foxmas? Whichever.

O.o

Caydin is taken care of. And OH MY GODS, she... wow. We traded early presents last night... she gave me this absolutely gorgeous bracelet; it's gold (and heavy enough to be real gold) with a band of onyx set with clusters of diamonds down the center... it's so beautiful, I cried...

kinda makes what I got her for her early gift seem goofy and cheap by comparison ... a beanbag chair with fish printed all over it. But she loved it and immediately plopped it down in the living room and took over it. :) so

but... foxes are another matter, what the hell do I get him?

Sailed in my first for-real challenge qualification race last night, for the AYC.

I won two of the seven or so races, but...

There's this thing, a fascinating thing, called Right of Way, that kitty seems to be having problems wrapping her kitty brain around. Sorry to all I fouled. I'm still getting the hang of this.

I understand the scoring is forthcoming later today. I'm not expecting to have qualified for the series :P But I had fun nonetheless.

i do it for the joy it brings
because i'm a joyful girl
because the world owes me nothing
and we owe each other the world
i do it because it's the least i can do
i do it because i learned it from you
i do it just because i want to
because I want to

everything i do is judged
and they mostly get it wrong
but oh well
'cuz the bathroom mirror has not budged
and the woman who lives there can tell
the truth from the stuff that they say
and she looks me in the eye
and says would you prefer the easy way?
no, well o.k. then
don't cry

and i wonder if everything i do
i do instead
of something i want to do more
the question fills my head
i know that there's no grand plan here
this is just the way it goes
and when everything else seems unclear
i guess at least i know

i do it for the joy it brings
because i'm a joyful girl
because the world owes me nothing
and we owe each other the world
i do it because it's the least i can do
i do it because i learned it from you
i do it just because i want to
because I want to
