[004] Life - Or an Approximation of It.
Sorry, keep forgetting that this thing needs to be updated occasionally. I don't really have much going on that I'd like to talk about these days.

I did find an awesome desert track last weekend. Hurtling along on my bike around all the twists and turns has got to be the best stress relief I've had in awhile. I'm so glad it's finally warmed up enough that I can ride my bike around instead of taking my car. I even made $600 bucks off some guys wanting to race me before they deemed me crazy for going as fast as I did and refusing to go again. It was fun, though.

Also, I've discovered that [pastry shop] has probably the best chocolate cheesecake in the city. I'd say best ever, but my friends Jess and AJ back in my hometown have a shop that makes it better.

It honestly shouldn't hurt like it does. No amount of phone calls, too-rich cake, and reckless riding seems to be making it more tolerable. I can't even put it out of my mind when I run, and...that's saying something. And the fucking nerve of his brother to even suggest that I'd do that- Grrr. I know it's been awhile since I've had to prove my sincerity to anybody, but there was never a soul who'd even hint at impugning my honor in such a way. >( And this was between Izuna and myself, not him, so just...augh. But he wanted time, so...I'll give him his space. ...Hopefully I will get a phone call soon. Or convince myself that...that it's okay to move on. Hah. ...I'll just turn up my cell to max volume just in case.

I've spent a bit of time getting to know Naruto the past month or so. It's not as much of a stretch to chat with him in the hall or go with him when he gets ramen for lunch. He...really does seem like a good kid, but he's so closed off. I want to help, and it's so hard to hold back that instinct. :( *sigh* I've just got to believe it will work out...eventually.
