moving . . .

. . . to Acton.

. . . on with my life.

. . . in the right direction.

. . . up (not out).

. . . pictures (and furniture and bicycles and books and appliances and everything else).

too many cycles

Framingham FreeCycle:

Natick FreeCycle:

Marlborough, Hudson, Sudbury FreeCycle:
http://www.freecycle.org/group/United%20States/Massachusetts/Marlborough,%20Hudson,%20Sudbury

and eighty others! (and that's just in response to a "Southborough, Massachusetts" query at FreeCycle.org)

too many? for me, at least. more power to everyone else.

FreeCycle for profit

yuck! i have a nice couch to get rid of (w/a queen size pull-out bed) and also a double bed. i went to FreeCycle to make a posting because i'd heard it was a good way to give away useful stuff, but it's so commercial!

it's Yahoo this and Yahoo that. fill out a zillion forms and wait for a moderator to review everything. (all while looking at a zillion ads.) i couldn't even get a good user name, other than this_stinks_2008 (which does have its own merits).

maybe i'll finish the bureaucratic/commercial stuff (and make a posting); maybe not.

'In Future Times'

[this is a poem my beloved wrote to me:]

In future times, my eyes will fail
My heart will falter, luster pale
And yet, with you in memory dear
In loving me through every year
Forever blush, forever see
In loving heart, forever be

Forever yours,
B

[and the verse in the posting below was my response. no one has ever written me poetry before, so i can't help showing it off.]

don't laugh at the last line ;-)

today, tomorrow, yesterday
my mind's a whirl of what to say
love you so bad; love you so good
can't imagine what could possibly
ever go wrong in this, our dream,
this love affair of life, of living,
of playing on the family team,
of giving and forgiving -- mais oui!

infinite love,
D

[and for an overly long-winded explication of the rhyme & meter anomalies, ask me.]

too much is never enough

it's been a honey moon for sure. euphoria overload. haven't written much, except journal entries. haven't read much either, except the first couple chapters of The Hobbit, aloud. watched a few movies though, including 'PS I Love You' and 'Stranger Than Fiction' (so you can guess where i am that way). dreams come true. more later.

floating

i'm three miles off the ground
and not ever coming down.

c'mon up and join me;
i have an extra ticket.

from here we can see forever;
let's start a journey towards it.

:-D
