Tumble of Thoughts – On High…without Static Cling
Delicates:
My bible study is on Friday nights. I’m flaky about attending regularly, since, well, it’s on Friday nights. If I skip without warning, they kindly leave voicemail messages for me asking me if I’ve got a booty call. Lovely.
Tonight we had a discussion (post prayer & spiritual discussion regarding the Resurrection, the basis of our faith, and essentially all the muckity muck in the final two chapters of As Bread That Is Broken which has been our discussion text over the last year…the book, by the way, is absolutely brilliant, intense, and profound for the mature Christian) regarding why it’s so annoying that women and men reach their sexual peaks at such different ages. (Men at 18, Women around 28) This conversation was inspired by Sunshine-Dahling who is the most earnestly spiritual ghetto booty that a Korean gal can be (more impressive than I) and the fact that she’ turning nigh 30 in a few short days.
Sunshine-Dahling’s theory involves logic and societal logistics. If men & women at the same age were at their sexual peaks, there’d just be too much f*cking going around and nothing would ever get done. Plus we’d have extreme overpopulation issues.
My thoughts on the matter?
Women, already emotional creatures, need to mature to a degree to handle the physical intimacy in conjunction with their emotional and spiritual intimacy. Or the appropriate disjunction of the two.
Sunshine-Dahling asks “So then, why do dudes peak at 18″
My answer, “Cuz darling, Men will *never* get to the point of maturing to handle the physical intimacy in conjunction iwth heir emotional and spiritual intimacy, so it doesn’t matter when they peak.
Of course, that statement with complete gender bias, is probably one of the reasons that I’m still single.
Fair enough. *I* would like to believe it’s because I’m extremely particular. Besides, I am still in a pretty selfish phase of my life where I like to make my own schedule, appointments, and engagements based on my personal preferences and wims rather than having to concede or consider another’s right now. I know it’s selfish. But hey, I’m in my late 20s… I’m not even at the “Sex in the City” dysfunctional dating age yet. Give me another 7 years or so.
Pajamas:
I spoke with my pops twice today. Once to tell him that I was interviewing with a non-profit this afternoon. The second call to tell him that I got the gig. It’s a contract job for the next two months, should keep me busy and out of the house while leaving me some time to catch some press screenings and volunteer with NAATA for the SFIAAFF.
By the way, I never got a call back from Company X after the “Shakin That Ass” incident.
I consider it a mixed blessing that my dad doesn’t understand the concept of caller ID when he calls my cell and hangs up without leaving a message. I can gauge his anxiety level for me by the frequency of his calls.
I’m also glad to hear that my brother will *FINALLY* be doing a wedding reception in Detroit to honor my Dad’s request to have a little shindig with his friends, family, and church collegues who couldn’t fly out to Hawaii 1.5 years ago for the ceremony.
Loose Socks:
Discovered the identity of the cute fellow from the other night. He’s over *here* and his girlfriend apparently thinks I’m a goof which is all good. I’d visited his Angry Asian Man blog a while back but it was lovely to rediscover it.
Sweaters:
Hmmm… my KoreAm article must be out because I’ve gotten 3-4 emails from Korean gentlemen over the last few days saying that they know what Adamantium is. Go pick up a copy if you don’t know what I’m talking about.
The cover story currently on their website (oh from October…they always lag a little) includes a picture of Christina R. — the friend from college who died in 911.
Tee Shirts:
Long overdue personal administrati was accomplished today. Getting a notary stamp, depositing a check, getting a certified check, mailing out bills, etc.
It felt rather good to get that all done & cleared off my plate.
Collar with Lipstick Stain:
I got my Valentines day card (with no smooch I’m afraid) from Cyn today. Delight. Oh Delight.
I think it will be my only valentine this year. Which is fine.
I’m a lazy runt when it comes to sending them out myself anyways.
Favorite Worn Jeans:
I felt so at peace this morning. And I thanked God for that moment of sweet stillness.
No frenetic squirrels, no rain, no phones ringing. Looking out the window, no haze or fog, just warm yellow light sparkling & glowing delovely through the greenery about my bedroom. A friend once told me that I am a princess living out in the forest. I think in moments like this morning, that she’s right.
