It's been awhile!

So, here I am.   I've Craigslisted, I've gone out, I've been there, I've done that.  That's life.  But is that all?  I think that's nowhere near all that this life, in this time, has to offer.  As I'm typing there are things going on around me.  People are sleeping, people are laughing, and people aren't reflecting; but I'm reflecting...is that OK?  Being fortunate is OK, but I hope it doesn't get boring.  All I've been trying to do is bring the comforts of home closer to home - bring the luxuries I've come to love from my parents into my own dwelling tucked deeper into Brooklyn than ever before.  Damn do I feel happy; it's more than worth it...or is it?  Right now, I can't tell.  I walk into my apartment and I peer timidly at a couch that's not mine, but became mine through a simple barter, well transaction might be a better word for it.  Yes, a transaction.  But not an official transaction, plastic has no value here - it's all about the paper, the human interaction, the search, the game.  If it wasn't clean I wouldn't bother, but is was clean...it was like brand new, it was something I could take pride in, something with a history that's not my own.  Let's make it my own, better yet, let's make it ours...I wanted it so you could sit on it.  I wanted it so WE can sit on it.  But I'm doubting that's going to happen and I'm doubting that you'd think my motives were pure.  I guess only time will tell.  Fuck Halloween, let's get ready for Christmas...
