My list was actually very similar to yours, except we'd have to substitute the geography. Thanks for the honesty, the unflinching-ness of this, and also for unwittingly putting me in touch with the blessings that live in the spaces of our collective angst here in New York. Love your blog! I've linked you on my blogroll and look forward to following you. But I wont be judging what you do and don't do here. This is still your space, your piece of mental, emotional, spiritual real estate and we're just your visitors, privileged to witness life being lived. Enjoy. And thank you.37paddingtonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12400464105403622384noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6433480315947510138.post-5478308897192444352009-12-04T17:00:50.277-05:002009-12-04T17:00:50.277-05:00You wrote a painfully honest list - that's har...You wrote a painfully honest list - that's hard to do. I think its a good process to kind of clear your head and let the important things come out to be recognized.

--Jean Rostand
...To be an adult is to be alone.<br /> --Jean Rostand<br /><br />I try to keep that in mind when I'm lonely. It never helps, but it gives me a reason. :)<br /><br />Also...<br />"I'm on the verge of tears.<br />(And I'm not sure why.)"<br /><br />This is my inspiration by depression. One of my instructors wrote her thesis on such things. For me, it's a reserve of sadness I keep inside that decides to settle heavily on my chest when I am alone. It squeezes water up near my eyes. And I feel like I want to cry, but I won't because I am writing--that makes all the difference.<br /><br />And more...<br />Drinking has lost appeal for me, too. Especially when I'm lonely. :)<br /><br />In sync,<br />Slight.Slighthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04745508452336887829noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6433480315947510138.post-11449578616796808102009-12-03T18:10:43.916-05:002009-12-03T18:10:43.916-05:00that's funny....airports make me anxious and u...that's funny....airports make me anxious and uncomfortable. they seem so sterile and depressing to me. except for the austin airport. they have live musicians and local shops in the airport!Hipstercritehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02168118598530462596noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6433480315947510138.post-37289865461826798792009-12-03T18:08:10.156-05:002009-12-03T18:08:10.156-05:00wow, I just love what you wrote and HOW you wrote ...wow, I just love what you wrote and HOW you wrote it....so many things in common all the way over here in Ireland....and I've had those "oh I want to run away and discover New York!" notions....it has yet to happen, but it will....I look forward to following your blog...and like you I love making lists, I recently completed a facebook thing that everyone was doing..write 25 wonderful things about you, so I did....I might publish it if I'm brave....like you :) - Best wishes from Ireland, Le Gra(with love) - RebeccaAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18158771451792922494noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6433480315947510138.post-2843836233107515112009-12-03T18:01:38.853-05:002009-12-03T18:01:38.853-05:00Ok, I literally just started following your blog a...Ok, I literally just started following your blog a moment ago. I cannot say how much this post resonates with me. As a senior in high school, my confusion is much different, I am sure. But making lists has been keeping me alive-of recent. And as I would like to think I am an aspiring writer (ha...), what you have here is incredibly inspiring for me.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08416098962672328597noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6433480315947510138.post-66612595979181213672009-12-03T17:58:59.819-05:002009-12-03T17:58:59.819-05:00I feel like you're my blogging soulmate. Proba...I feel like you're my blogging soulmate. Probably because you're about my age, sound like you got out of a serious relationship not that long ago and moved to a big city--just like me. (I'm in Paris, and I can tell you, going abroad doesn't magically make you happier, it just makes your life more distracted/complicated).<br /><br />I make lists like this all the time (although I tend to leave the more bitter parts out of my blog...I'm still a little wary of my immediate family knowing that I get mad at myself when I over drink, or that I find women sexy). I sway from being in love with Paris and my life here to feeling lonely and confused as to why I'm not happier. Huh. Keep up the great writing and take full advantage of your NYC Christmas!Rebeccahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00398238276992730138noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6433480315947510138.post-31495443406203417042009-12-02T12:20:46.118-05:002009-12-02T12:20:46.118-05:00Tina Fey is my idol too!

It comes and it goes and then suddenly you're 26 and not much is different. Don't set time limits on yourself. :)inflammatory writhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12923322007776358065noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6433480315947510138.post-68071862399427946082009-12-01T10:12:52.887-05:002009-12-01T10:12:52.887-05:00I wish I had the balls (and the time) to write lik...I wish I had the balls (and the time) to write like you do in your blog. So raw. Don't stop. Maybe I'll put my poetry up (and write some poems that aren't 2 years old). I feel like I have to be so edited.
