so through a combination of my ribs not being completely healed, my bike not cooperating, and a general lack of foresight, i didn't go on my bike ride after all. it was just too stressful to get everything together in time. i might have been able to pull it off, but it wouldn't have been relaxing, so what's the point?
i did get my turkey fill via my friend theresa and her family.
today (friday) i've done a lot of nothing. i just finished watching Hellboy II and there was a line in it that really resonated with me. this was, of course, further resonated by the fact that you don't expect a movie like Hellboy to speak any sort of deep truths to you. anyway, the line was:
"does everyone in the world have to love you, or am i enough?"
that speaks to a pretty deep part of me. even if it's never been asked, i feel like i have earned that question more than once, and surely will again. i have yet to get to the root of my compulsive attention whoredom. maybe not so much attention, more like approval and admiration whoredom. one day, i suppose...
