loner, dottie. a rebel.


Texas is hot. I love it here. Not only because seeing Jordan and his grandma keep me in a constant state of joy, but also because I just like taking a break from my actual life to be somewhere else for awhile. Things I'd like to accomplish this trip are making another award-winning dinner, enjoying the brief stint of having a social life again, and hopefully get to the basement in the alamo. (no one thinks that joke is funny). I met some interesting people last night, found most of them quite charming. I need to be reminded that there are still pleasant people in the world (Pittsburgh has made me forget this) and I shouldn't become a total recluse just yet. Even though its true that I would rather have my way with a few kitchen utensils and a well-stocked pantry than go on a date with someone most likely to bore me, or hang out with an excessive amount of people, I am really trying to fight being a hermit. I've decided I'm going to be single forever, but do it happily. I've also decided (rather ill-logically perhaps) that if I dedicate my efforts to making other people happy, then maybe I will stay that way too. You know, through osmosis or some jazz.
