good grief. . .
(in the vain of charlie brown) isn't it friday yet?
last night i was thinking about wanting things and what the heck do i want and do i really want those things or do i just think i do? i think people think they want certain things - or make themselves think they want those things - but once they start to achieve those things it turns out they didn't really want them, they just thought they did. i feel like we all go through life thinking we want certain things and then through the unique experiences that we go through we figure out what we thought we wanted is not what we wanted at all and it turns out we really want something different or, in reality, need something different.
either all that, or it's just me.
turns out - i don't give a crap about halloween.

I realized that I enjoy getting things much more than having things. I like all the researching, learning and preperation for a big purchase - but once I get it I'm on to something else.
Except the house. *Love* the house.
