Lonely

sometimes the loneliness overtakes me and I just feel this wave of grief roll over me for about the length of time it takes to walk all the way to the washer/dryer. *sigh*
I got my teeth cleaned today. All I could think of was: no one to kiss.
I was watching '30 Rock' tonight, really enjoying it. It's one of my very few tv shows that I follow, that I love, because it makes me laugh every time.
Right in the middle of it my roommate insisted on knocking on my 'door' (folding plastic door) to tell me that I need to make sure the dog's crate is properly closed when I put the dog back in.
I was trying to watch the show and not be too rude but I'm afraid I didn't pull it off.
Good meeting tonight. Very good. I couldn't tell you what the topic was, because topic doesn't matter. It's the fact that I was happy to be there and surrounded by friends. It was fantastic.
I'm interested in this "12 Step Buddhist" program I heard about and wondering if I should buy the book.
Because it sounds like the best of two worlds.

I know what you mean about that wave of lonely grief Zed. I don't know how many times it's washed over me. But you can't let it pull you down. You just can't. ... It's the funniest thing you know, all it takes is something small to happen and then everything don't seem quite so bad. Kind of goes to show that reality is just a frame of mind, and if we could just gain control over that, we'd have the power over our own happiness.... Just a thought...
The 12 Step Buddhist programs sounds like something interesting.
