All this pain is an illusion.

Tonight was simply amazing, from the date out to dinner to everything else. I loved tonight. Everything was perfect and feelings were whole, and I felt so alive because of you. Thank you, thank you for it all.

Parabol was playing over and over in my head all night.

So familiar and overwhelmingly warm
This one, this form I hold now.
Embracing you, this reality here,
This one, this form I hold now, so
Wide eyed and hopeful.
Wide eyed and hopefully wild.

We barely remember what came before this precious moment,
Choosing to be here right now. Hold on, stay inside...
This body holding me, reminding me that I am not alone in
This body makes me feel eternal. All this pain is an illusion.

Tomorrow begins at 6 a.m. It's going to be a fucking shit show, because Kristen is involved somewhere in there, and shit shows are her thing ;]. I'm so pumped. And, band practice? And naps until 10 am? I think yes.

Goodnight.
