063: Musings

[livingmyths]

I didn't eat any of those candy hearts yesterday and after seeing what happened on the Network I'm glad. I wouldn't really want to accidentally find out people's secrets. If they want me to know, that's fine, but not that way.

I do wonder now, though, if anyone got a secret about me. I don't think I really have many. There isn't much really only one thing that I wouldn't tell people if they asked me.

Tony? How are you? I've been thinking about you and hoping you're doing all right.

Mat? I have kind of a silly question for you later if you're around.

Oooh! And I'll be 23 soon. Doesn't that sound like a really nice number?

Um, it's sequential...so...good enough I guess.

After 21, the numbers stop having good connotations.

Hell, I turn 43 tomorrow, so 23 isn't too bad.

Why doesn't your house have a roof?

[bloodygoodluck.livejournal.com]

What's the question?

[livingmyths.livejournal.com]

Happy almost birthday!

And... why do they stop having good connotations after 21?

[livingmyths.livejournal.com]

It does. It's just transparent. So I can see the stars and the wind and the trees and not be scared inside.

[livingmyths.livejournal.com]

I wondered if you were doing anything tomorrow night.

[prodigalvampire]

Well, at 21 you get the happy of being about to legally drink. After that, you get 25: yay, I'm a quarter-century old. Then there's 30: holy crap, I'm 30, etc.

[livingmyths.livejournal.com]

Oh.

...

For the Lakota I guess it's different.

It's good to be an elder.

[windmemory.livejournal.com]

I walked over it the other day.

[livingmyths.livejournal.com]

You walked on my roof?

Why?

Did you see me?

[windmemory.livejournal.com]

I didn't walk on it. I walked over it.

You weren't home.

[prodigalvampire]

Lakota...that sounds Native American.

[livingmyths.livejournal.com]

Why did you walk over it?

[windmemory.livejournal.com]

Why not?

[livingmyths.livejournal.com]

It is, yes.

Most people here have never heard of them.

[livingmyths.livejournal.com]

It doesn't seem very polite.

[prodigalvampire]

I haven't either. It just sounds like...cherokee, etc. ... Does that make any sense?

[windmemory.livejournal.com]

I've never really been polite.

[livingmyths.livejournal.com]

Oh.

Well, yes. It does I guess.

But it's nice to talk to someone who at least has heard of Native Americans.

[livingmyths.livejournal.com]

Oh.

Hey.

You're talking to me.

[bloodygoodluck.livejournal.com]

Tomorrow? No. Not that I know of.

[ooc: He doesn't know what Valentine's Day is.]

[prodigalvampire]

There are a lot of digs and whatnot around Chicago for the Cree, I think?

[livingmyths.livejournal.com]

Then I thought maybe we could do something together.

It's a sort of holiday where I'm from and even though we're not exactly sweethearts we're good friends and I thought it might be nice.


[ooc:I figured. :)]

[windmemory.livejournal.com]

I'm not going to apologize.

[livingmyths.livejournal.com]

Digs?

I met a Cree elder once. He told me lots of good stories.

When he hadn't had too much to drink. It was very sad.
