I love new and exciting things. Peolpe. Places. Games. Drinks. Food. Thoughts. It is all so fascinating, entertaining, and thought provoking.
Life has been full of new things lately. A lot of new people in my life, the past 3-6 months has kind of been a big transition for me, in terms of friends and otherwise. I am sitll close with all of my old friends, but I've been meeting a lot of new people and hanging out with a lot of them. Its hard though. Its slow. Its impossible to replicate the unique closeness and fondness my friends and I have...
Part of meeting new people is new people of the opposite sex. I am not sure what im waiting for, maybe a sign or something. No one inspires me. No one challenges me to be a better person, work harder, or otherwise just improve. I don't find myself lost in someone else's passion and love. It isn't always like that, I know. Sometimes its a slow progression, it grows, as you get closer to someoen and get to know them. But there is something that is amazingly potent about someone that can evoke those feelings. Its when you meet someone and want to know everything about them, think about them all the time, and just can't shake them from your head. Its this idea of being so enthralled with someone's persona...and if it goes beyond just infatuation, it is an amazing thing.
There's been a lot of new music in my life...which is great. I love music. New bands, new styles, new genres. I've really expanded my tastes and my collection lately, and I love it. I can't wait for Jazz Fest now...we're finding some great 'outside of jazz fest' acts at bars, clubs, riverboats, I just sense a massive music overload.
Outside of NO, I need to travel some. I have friends all over to visit, Italy, Barcelona, Hamburg, New York, Portland, St. Louis, its just a matter of finding the time and money...but I need to stick with my 'once a month out of LA' plan...its kept me sane...
I feel im in a constant battle sometimes...between the new and exciting things and the old, safe, comfortable ones. I miss some of the old ones, I want some new ones I've yet to encounter...time will tell I guess...
