there was once a time when i deemed it a good idea to have a significant other move in with me after about a month of knowing him. he moved from his college town to my college town and into my very tiny (under 400 sq. ft.) one bedroom apartment. the first night he was there, we were so happy to be sleeping in "our" new apartment together that instead of sleeping we got it on. oh yeah, did we ever.note: this was back when i was still using a futon for a bed.
so there we were, in the throes of passion, really rockin' the casbah, when one side of the futon frame sort of cracked. it was definitely jarring, but we couldn't be stopped. we were on FIRE! eventually we had to stop and institute a temporary solution to the sagging frame. i propped an old milk crate under the broken part and we got back to business.
at this point we were in this groove where nothing was going to stop us. not rain, nor hail, nor dark of night was going to prevent us from finishing up at this point. nothing, that is, except for a giant, horrendous cracking futon that snapped in half and folded us into it.
"don't stop...god, please don't stop right now. this is the worst time to stop. i am RIGHT THERE!" he pleaded.
"ahahahahahahaha. haha. ha ha ha ha hahahahaha." i replied, squished between the two sides of the futon.
"don't laugh. come on. focus. concentrate. i'm begging you!" he said, gasping for breath.
"ahahah. i can't breathe! ahahaha haha ha ha hahaha haha!" i answered again.
and that was it. the end of the sex, the end of the futon frame...but the fucktaco lives on.

today i've tried a number of things to lift me out of the funk i am currently stewing in:
- chocolate chip cookie ice cream sandwich
- walk around the block
- talk to friends about friend-stuff
- cleaned my entire desk
- 2+ liters of deer park spring water
- solex's cd, pick up
- pep talks out the wazoo
- consolation involving the option of moving back to my mom's place
i am still stewing in a funk, but at least i'm doing so proactively.
addendum: vanilla vodka and coke works quite nicely as a pick-me-up.

the other day i was on the metro going from work (yes, it was a saturday and yes, i was at work) to meet up with meg, ryan and matthew to go see that new mummy movie (man, was it ever bad...the rock? as a computer generated scorpion? oh dear.) when i had a very upsetting realization. it was shocking...disappointing...really sad.
you see, our generation (20-somethings) has been raised to believe that space travel was to become something bigger and better than it currently is. it was to be for more than just astronauts or unlucky school teachers or millionaires who charm the russians. it was to be for civilians. it was to be the mode of transportation to take us to our next exotic vacation locale. space was going to provide us with answers to such problems as overpopulation, overpolution, overweight-ness. with regular infusions of oxygen and some dehydrated rocket food, space was to be the greener grass on the other side of the sky.
on the train the other day, all those dreams i grew up with were shattered. crushed by the realization that i, dana j. robinson, would never get a chance to go to space. i will never be in a space ship. i will never be weightless. i will never burn up while trying to re-enter earth's atmosphere. damn it, i will never land in the ocean and hope my little shuttle remnant is rescued. i am earth-bound, and i am not pleased.

so i've decided that i need to give back a little something to a little someone. that little someone being a "little sister." the other day i went to the big brothers big sisters website to look up some information about volunteering and dropped them an email asking about opportunities. i got an email back a couple of days later with a phone number to call for more information. so...now i'm just waiting and waiting for the stork to deliver me a child.
what's that? you say children aren't delivered via stork anymore? what? well, i don't know how you expect me to get this little sister i'm so anxious to hang out with. i guess it's back to the drawing board.

i have an opening in my life for a new friend. a former friend decided to respectfully bow out of the position due to personal problems, but that's neither here nor there. you should definitely see this as a once in a lifetime opportunity!
apply within. no phone calls, please. (unless they're saucy. really, really saucy.)
