Why am I so bored right now?
I am so incredibly bored right now, so I decided to take the time and do something constructive. Well, I'm not sure if starting a live-journal can be considered constructive. C'est la vie.
Today I played whiffle ball with AB people. Why do they rock so hard? They're all so fun and cool in their own way. It makes me think about high school (madrigals and jazz) and I miss the kind of friendships that I had there (although I realize now that most of those were just surface friends). In case you were wondering, my team lost, but we put up a good fight.
I went to Dave Matthews Band again last night - in Providence this time with Julie, Diana, and Katie. We didn't have tickets until 10 minutes into the show - and they ended up being second row. The set was amazing. We missed "Too Much" and "Grey Street" but I think I can say it was worth it to be second row. He played some of my favorites like "One Sweet World," "Lover Lay Down," "Grace Is Gone," "Pig," "Bartender," and even whipped out a little "Two Step" and "Ants Marching." Amazing. It blows my mind sometimes to think that 12,000 people went to see 5 people in concert. Simply amazing.
Tomorrow I'm making another pilgrimage, this time to see Ani at Smith with Nardozzi and Elizabeth. I can't wait to see Elizabeth and get to meet some of the people she talks about. She's become a really good friend even though the distance makes it impossible to ever see each other. But as someone told me once, "no one said that the best friends of your life would live next door." I believe this wholeheartedly.
I don't know what's going on with my love life, if one could even attempt to categorize it in that way. Sometimes I just want someone so bad it hurts. Yesterday I randomly said to Julie "I want to be in love again." "I was wondering about that...don't think I don't think about these things." It often seems so close, yet just out of my reach. Like last night during the show when Dave played "Lover Lay Down" I just wanted to be with someone. Sometimes I think it's a little selfish to ask to have someone to spend time with, to joke with, to curl up with, to hold hands with, to run my hands through their hair, to kiss, to lay in the grass and look at the stars with, to share life with. I think I'm going to try to take a break from it all and just be for a little while. I've tried that before though...mostly unsuccessfully. Love is tricky like that...
