Amused at myself

I re-discovered a journal entry of mine in another place where I journal--which none of you have access to. *cheeky grin* This entry was from June 3 of this year, and I found myself chuckling when I read it today. This (slightly edited version) may amuse you, too...

And here I go surprising myself yet again. I’m sitting in the Dallas airport on a layover, headed to see Chel, and then on to Oklahoma for another Godplace meetup. When Trent asked me why I was making these trips this year, I just told him I’d been working and saving for years for ‘someday if’ and ‘someday when’… and I’d just decided that 2008 was someday. It sounds kinda nutty even to myself. But there it is. And here I am.

Maybe it would be more truthful to say I’d been waiting to travel with my special someone, and since he isn’t making any moves my direction (so far as I know), I decided that if I wanted to do any traveling, I’d have to do it without him.

Anyhow… I’m really looking forward to meeting these other GPers! I want to know if Sandra gives hugs that are as great as Chel’s are. I want to know if Aaron’s sense of humor is as wonderfully hilarious in real life as it is online. I want to know if Dina is as quiet as she appears to be. I want to know if Chris still has tremendous pain in his eyes, or if he is letting God heal those wounds. I know he’s a stronger man than he was before, but I hope he still has a tender heart, and I hope he is able to relax and have a wonderful time. I want to know if John is as gallant in real life as he likes to appear online. I want to know if Elona and I have as many things in common as it seems we do. And dreadful as it may sound, I hope I get some really great guy hugs this week. I miss T so badly, and D doesn’t really give hugs. And I’m really, really, really feeling the lack of guy hugs in my life lately.

Two comments that could only come after the trip....
1) Dina quiet?!?! ROFL!
2) I got the great guy hugs. *smile*
