My First Blogmeet
So, I finally got to meet the happy couple, Will and Maria, and to use Maria's words, it was fuckin' brilliant. :)
They came by Chicano Perk Wednesday night and caught the tail end of my reading. And, if you read Will's comment on my last post, it happened just like that. Will introduced himself and pointed out Maria, and my dense self didn't click for a few seconds, but once I did, I flew out of my chair and almost knocked Maria over! Sorry, Maria. :p We had some great conversation and they got to meet J and my sister. My brother-in-law was at home with the baby. How's that for a good arrangement?
Let me tell you, they look as happy in person as they sound on Infinity. It was wonderful seeing them together. So love really does happen these days. It's refreshing to know that.
Speaking of Chicano Perk, my feature spot is Wednesday night. I'm getting more anxious all the time. But I've written a good chunk over the last few days and have been going over them, working on my delivery. I have a few more to write and then I'm going to work in some stuff by other writers that I want to use and try to put it all together. We'll see how it goes...
As for J, we're hitting some bumps. I'm realizing how much I have yet to deal with from things that have happened before (and not just with him; that's just the tip of the iceberg). And I can tell J's patience is starting to run low, but at the same time, I can't pretend to be ready for anything that I'm not ready for. I just hope that time, honesty, and prayer will clear things up, however it plays out.
What else, what else... That's really all that's going on now. The poetry thing is taking up a large part of my mind, and will continue to do so until it's all over and done with Wednesday night. Oh! We're baptizing my niece (FINALLY) the first Sunday in December. And y'all know who the godfather is. :D Definitely looking forward to that...
Until next time, all, keep your heads up. Thanks for the unceasing encouragement. I hope to have a functioning computer again soon...
Much Love,
Joseph
