Epiphanies from a sleepless night.

I couldn't sleep at all last night. Partially because of the fear that Lu was going to pounce my face at any moment, and partially in thought about the "big move." I am slightly terrified, but it's good for me. Adds character. I am going to miss you guys a ton. This is pretty anti-climatic because you know I'll probably be home more often than you might think. Regardless, I love you people.


I just want you to be as happy as humanly possible.


I am single. It is weird. It is new. I am fairly stable regardless of all the chaos that keeps getting thrown at me. Fairly is as good as it gets.


I made a list of qualifications for the next ill-fated male that stumbles into my life. I've never ever made a list of qualifications for a significant other. I've always just gone with the chemistry thing. I've decided to think of chemistry as a special bonus and to focus on the following list of qualifications:

I need someone who loves the environment. This is priority. It is unacceptable to not recycle. EVERYONE should do it. If you don't recycle, you don't respect and love the environment. I can't stand people who are wasteful. As far as I am concerned, it uncovers bad character. Recycle, people.

I need someone who LOVES animals. Not someone who just tolerates them. Adores them. He needs to think that ALL animals are god's gift to the planet. Speaking of planet, he needs to be okay, nay, exuberant with watching the animal planet/discovery channel for hours if I feel like it. I hardly ever watch TV so this shouldn't be a problem. I do not want the TV on 24-7 regardless of what it is. Not ok with that at all.

I need someone who believes in ghosts and has a high respect for the paranormal.

So that's it. I don't think it is too much to ask for. Especially the ghost portion.

Outlandish, maybe.
