the human connection

its been a really long time since i have updated this bad boy- i only realized just how long when i signed in and saw the bin sin pic pop up...that was forever ago!! a lot of the reason for my recent haitus has been th damaged state of my left wrist- it kinda makes it hard to type..hurts after a while and i hate not being able to rant at the speed my nimble fingers are so used to:) but yesterday i made a friend who reminded me that this was an important part of my journey so here i am with a most recent update!!

on blackouts- last you heard we were experiencing random black outs in the sky temple ( the name of our house) well those conitnued with increasing frequency after we had an AC unit put into my bedroom ( i know, pause for a moment of excited screaming!!!) but with luxury came strife- no longer waking up a sweaty mess, instead the powering of the ac somehow tripped up the water pump and our water was intermittently just turning off. so now the possibility of a black out while in the shower and then having the water turn off on you while soap is dripping down your face was imminent. thanks to jasmine and 'her guy' the problem is now rectified and i no longer have to force my soapy scared self through the pitch black house to the outside electric box to switch the lights back on!!

a quick mention of the person who has recently inspired me to come back to the writing- sometimes i forget how amazing human connections can be- how they can come at you from nowhere and forge in the most unexpected ways. one of the things i love the most about being in a constantly transient place is the ifinite possibility of people meeting. sometimes its a disapointment, sometimes its fleeting and sometimes its more powerful then you can explain. knowing someone for 24 hours and having a connection that feels like life long friends is something that i will never tire of experiencing. its humbling and awe inspiring at the same time- to think about the sequence of small events and decisions that went into motion to sway two peoples lives into congruence and for however long it lasts it is most worth it:)

ok like i said- my finger is starting to hurt so more profound thoughts tomorrow;)
