I used to think I knew what I was waiting for.....

now that estimation has all but been blown out of the water. It all comes down to the old adage that you don't know what you're looking for until you find it. I am now a firm believer that whoever said that actually knew what they were talking about... ;)

I am now bummed as I found out that one of my favorite authors, David Sedaris, will be doing a reading here in A2 tomorrow night. However you can only attend by wristband and you can only obtain a wristband by buying a copy of his new book. Which woul be fine except that I will be at work and can't go in, but aside from that, I bought the book the day it came out... why would I want to buy another one? I could aways just buy a second copy as I really would love to hear him read... *sigh*

I had a discussion recently with a friend about open relationships. He is a fan of them and is in one with a girl who is in an open marriage. When I asked how that worked he explained that it is a marriage based on the realization that you can't be fulfilled in all aspects by one person. I can understand the appeal of this type of relationship. However, I do not understand this in term of marriage. Why marry someone that can't fulfill all that you need or desire? I guess this really hits home for me lately in terms of the desire for a relationship not based on need, but rather on shared interests and desires. Thank heavens for the situations that pop up when you are least looking for them. Also a big shout out to Sauza and my attempts at bitchiness.
