Days 22 and 23: Noticing the Opposite Sex Again

People, I have been noticing the opposite sex again lately....and I mean really NOTICING them.  Somehow I've gone from "I don't give a shit"  to "Oh you're kind of cute and maybe I COULD give a shit!"  It hasn't happened often, because in this small town, it just wouldn't.  But it HAS happened.  And it is making me feel something like joy.  What could be more fun that a little bit of flirtation?  That whole excitement that builds around meeting someone new, discovering what your chemistry is, trying not to be nervous, etc.   That could be good.  Very good.  A hell of a lot better than brooding, that's for sure.  So it looks like I am beginning to see things in a much more positive light.  Finally.  Now, don't get my wrong....I'm not out there looking.  Not yet.  Maybe not for a very long time.  But I guess where I am is in the place where I can see that I WILL want to be out there looking, at some point.  And that feels like a good place to be in, right now.  I like this place.  It is a hopeful place to be.  And I've always   been a hopeful person. Without hope, what do we have?

Time for bed for this chick.  Here's hoping that this hopeful place doesn't disappear on me.  I will cross my fingers and my toes.  And just for luck, I will pray to Cliff Burton and Thor.  They won't dissappoint me.  Not now.
