What a weekend!Ah, this was truly a delightful weekend. Saturday in particular. I was at home. Alone. By myself. Quiet. To reflect, goof off, clean, and relax! Yeah, that was nice.
Actually, I even spent a wee bit o'time updating this webpage. And I even found a couple o'moments to upload a brand new sean-nos MP3 of "My Love Is Like A Red, Red Rose" to my MP3.com website. Haven't updated the featured page yet, but you can head over to my MP3 page to listen.
I also had time to reflect on dating. I was thinking about how, before my Ex-fiancee, I would go out on a date with someone and even if that person was a completely different personality, I would still want to date them! I had a short dinner with a woman yesterday. She's a very pretty woman, but obviously very different personality. Five years ago, I wouldn't have given up. Today? She's just a friend and will never be anything more because we're really two different people.
I don't know if I'm alone on this, but it seems kinda silly to me now to keep pursuing something that is obviously not right for you. Yet often times, people just want companionship. They think it must be a physical relationship in order to satiate them. But is it really? I don't think so.
The more time I have to reflect, the more I realize that it's not a physical relationship I'm really seeking. It's more of a spiritual relationship to share with God and also a woman. Sure there's the lustful part of me that wants more, that wants just to satsify the senses, but there's a bigger part of me that just wants to relationship, and not really a sexual one.
I mean, I've had the opportunities to have sexual relationships, but things aren't always the way you've imagined them. High Fidelity is one of my favorite movies for just that reason. After fighting to get his woman back, John Cusack finds himself falling for another woman who flirts with him. Then he realizes it's all about fantasies.
People fantasize about the perfect woman, but it's never that way. They lack the ideal height. They don't wear exciting lingerie. They're not as hygenic as you prefer. Their breasts aren't the same size as you've seen in adult mags. But it's all a fantasy. It's not real. The real person that you may fall in love with won't be perfect. The imperfections will be abundant, but it's those imperfections that you will miss the most when they're gone.
I could probably just jump into a physical relationship and voil&aactute;, I'd probably ready to go on a promiscuous sex-spree, but ye know, that's really not what I want. I'm more interested in finding a relationship that will last. And for me, I don't think promiscuity is the way to find something that will last. So for now, simple dates. Not necessarily even kissing someone person on the first date...can you imagine?!
And hopefully, with a little patience and heavenly love, someone special will come my way. Picture Perfect CommentsI've had some great comments about my goatless face pictures. A couple months ago, I figured I would shave after TRF, and I think some time next month, I will do just that. Starting bid for Marc's fuzzy face, $10. Just kidding. If I Were A HorseI wrote this song about a decade ago. It's goofy little song that I'm gonna try and record despite the fact it's just plain ridiculous.
If I were a horse and you were a mule,
My heart would break all the same.
I'd cry on your tail. All the while would I wail
And refuse to eat my grain.
Oh, listen to this sad story.
Take head to the message I don't purvey.
Cuz it'll make you feel blue, and I'll cry boo hoo.
And I'll have to blow snot on my sleeve.
If I were pig and you were a hog,
Would that make us compatible or insane.
We'd roll in the mud, and we'd hug, and we'd hug.
And we'd play all day in the rain.
If I were a cat, and you were a dog,
Would you love me or tear me in two.
Bite off my tail, rip the whiskers from my cheeks,
And spill all my blood in the street.
Did you listen to this sad story?
Did you take head to the message I didn't purve?
Cuz it'll make you feel blue, and you'll cry boo hoo.
And you'll have to blow snot on your shirt.
