Party People

Had a wonderful dinner party last night!

Eggplant Parm that was, no lie here, fucking perfect eggplant parm. Plus delicious penne with a homemade and very dynamite sauce, and a fresh salad with apples and cranberries and this fabulous fig dressing.  YUM!  My hosts were great, the conversation was fun, and it was a really, really nice way to wrap up the week.  I brought a pinot noir that was meh, but I drank it, so, i guess it was worth the price, lol.

It is wild to be around people at such different stages of relationship.  Old married (that's me and A), engaged, and brand spanking new.  It is always tricky for me to accurately remember what I must have been like at those phases of our relationship, and try to empathize and offer sound advice.

I hope I did so, though. 

I belive in love.

And I believe in laying yourself out there, completely, and not holding back.

Sometimes it is easier to believe in something than to do it.

Wisdom.  Courage.  Strength.  Balance.  Passion.

Just some words that are on my mind right now.  We did Tarot readings too and those are just so nebulous and cryptic and intriguing.  I think, as much as I tend toward spiritual and the goddess and energy and all that, I think sometimes I am still too fucking Irish for such things.  I want some definite, clear answers.  And being a libra exacerbates everything!  It could be this OR it could be this....i'll never be able to lean one way or the other, folks, not left to my own devices!  I don't make choices! sheesh.

I thoroughly enjoyed the deck though.  Beautiful art and very thought-provoking imagery.

And I enjoyed the time we spent on the readings, speculating, pondering, theorizing, and philosophizing. 

If I have regrets, I own them as my own fucking fault. 

next dinner party I will be awesome.

Aaron was perfection :)  He is a good party guest, no?  Je t'adore.
