anything to get more of this feeling.
the sound of music.
while on vacation with my best friend and her husband this week, she insisted that i talk to the guy that was singing along with the live band we were watching.
bestie: shirin! come talk to this guy, he’s got pipes.
me: (to her husband) yeah, but he doesn’t have looks.
bestie: he’s such a great singer!
me: (to her husband) will you tell your wife i’m trying to start a family, not a band.
i don’t know how i got to be this funny.
bitter & sweet.
this morning i received this song in an email:
from one of the last people i expected to hear from today.
…and the one that has meant the most to me.
i wish nothing but the best for you too.
‘sometimes it lasts in love, but sometimes it hurts instead.’
urban allure.
it takes a lot to win me over. and i’ve been crushing. hard!
i’m easy to be with, but hard to get. i can fall in love with a boy or i can fall in love with a song, but it isn’t a person or tune i’m thinking of tonight: it’s a place.
anyone who knows me knows my heart belongs to san diego, but recently i’m finding other cities very alluring…
my two recent trips to the city by the bay have reaffirmed my love for san francisco. the city that almost had me for college. initially, i thought it was just infatuation. i’m often rash & impulsive, but this has been a long time coming. i think it may be time to explore my feelings. i’ve bounced around the idea of a power move for long enough. it’s time to take that leap. and say yes to life.
the east coast feel of this west coast city has captured my heart & for the first time in a long time, i had trouble saying goodbye.
i’m headed home, but it feels like i left my heart in san francisco. as the wheels of the plane touch the ground, i’m typically overcome with a sense of calm. san diego has always felt right. this time it feels different. it feels like i’m meant to be someplace else.
sdinsf doesn’t have the same ring to it, but i have to follow my heart. and i trust that the universe will take care of the rest.
say yes to life.
great advice given to me by someone who ‘gets it.’
a motto he lives by and i admire.
to be completely candid (i always am), i’m so great at doing this when i’m single, but have trouble reconciling my committed self with my spontaneous and unpredictable single lady status.
i suppose that’s natural… it’s a challenge to maintain a relationship if you’re constantly running around all over the place. or is it?
time will tell.
but until i find a boy whose company i enjoy as much of that of my bestie, i’ll be maintaining my single lady status.
~ looking forward to spending time with one of my favorites. sdinsf.
