So when I had lunch with

inevitability today, he complained that I hadn't posted anything swoony about Selena in the last few days for him to condense. And I realized that this was true, and that I really ought to rectify this immediately. Not so that he could condense it, of course, but so you all can know how wonderful Selena is, and how much I adore her.

I talked to her on the phone for about an hour and a half last night, talking about books and listening to stories from her childhood in New York City. She has a habit of thinking that I won't understand what she is saying or where she is coming from, and is continually suprised when I understand perfectly, and agree, having thought the same way. It draws us together, those little bursts of suprise, joy and relief at finding someone who really understands these things, and feels the same.

When I met Selena, I was feeling rather cynical and bitter about love and relationships in general, as I had noticed that I had set a pattern for myself in the relationships that I would get into, one which I felt I would never escape. When we finally did meet, though, that cynicism was broken, and replaced by joy and hope.

It has been said to both Selena and I in the past (before we knew one another) that a relationship between two hopeless dreamers tends to go badly, as they have nothing to ground one another to reality. Yet, as she once said, we are quite content to drift off in our own little world, weaving dreams for one another, telling stories, imagining the future and the past and the other. It's a warm, protective feeling, one which I have longed for. And the fact that she recognizes this, and feels the same way -- well. I had rather despaired of ever meeting someone like that. And now I have, and she loves me.

Insulin shot, anyone?

Hee!

FWIW, that's a cynicism that I've never shared in.

I also think that "opposites attract" was coined by a hopeful, yet self-loathing, individual.

*grins wide*

Okay, that's it. The Selena Stamp O' Niftiness is getting pulled out for that one. (pulls wendolen aside and stamps her hand) You are now gifted with....mmm...*searches frantically* Three questions. Just like three wishes, except much easier for me to do.

(or, what happens when you reply to people when sleep-depping)

Three questions could prove very useful at some point. You didn't state any expiration date... thus, I'm going to save them. :)

*blinkle*

I don't understand why that posted anonymously. Ahh, the vagaries of randomly changing which browser you're using.

It's all right. :) You still get your three, saved questions. And of course, my respect for you only goes up, most people would have blown those right away. :)

Hell, no! I'm saving these for when you wouldn't otherwise willingly answer! :D

*sighs, rolls eyes* It did it again! If Opera weren't so cool in other ways, I'd give up on it for LJ.
