9:52.

and the big bad question for the evening is - do i keep the evening going?

do i go out again into the admittedly gorgeous springy evening and meet up with friends, or do i sit here, lazily, and contemplate my way into sleepytime? the problem is, once you get into the cozy, into the warming lull of home, you aren't super keen on venturing out into the world again. especially when there are worlds of opportunity to socialize and frivolicize. not that frivolicize is even close to being a real word. but you understand.

and i understand that my mind has made up its mind, and i am not going anywhere. after all, it has been an hour since i started writing this, and here i sit, listening to dreamy music and dreaming of, well, dreaming.

it is only wednesday. and thursday has drinks in it. and friday has friday in it. and then, a three day weekend that includes valentine's day and presidents day. so love and power, all wrapped up with a bow. or maybe just a little bit of possibility and a whole lot of reflection. that's love and power too, just articulated differently.

and articulation is key.
