wolfpangsI was going to do that mayfly project thing but my year was way too big for 20 words. Then, I was going to do this self-invented meme wherein I summed up my year in song lyrics but I gave up on that before May Day. So. Why not? Cryptonomicon, part the second! This one's kinda different from the last one. I'm not just sticking to lj people on this one. However, everyone on here who is not on lj has been mentioned in this journal. It's evenly divided between lj and non. And in honor of the holidays, it's all sweet and stuff.
1) I'm so glad I got to talk to you last night. Going like, a week without really talking because we were both so busy was awful. Let's never do that again. You constantly amaze me with how generous, kind, and loving you are to me. I'm eternally happy that we met. The shows wouldn't be as fun if I didn't have you. I lovelovelove you. What--no vase?
2) The last night of the tour, someone we both know asked me what I was doing after the show. I said, "Keeping an eye on this guy [you]." He asked me who was keeping an eye on me and of course, the only answer was "this guy." I've felt totally at ease with you since the first night we met. You're a wonderful person and I'm amazed that you've been able to maintain your grace in spite of your extraordinary life. Will I come to another show? You bet.
3) I could be like everyone else and say, Oh, your entries are so funny. You're so clever. I'm LOL. And you know what? I will. I always enjoy what you write but beyond the funny, you're also an incredibly caring person. You're always there to try to cheer up people or just be their cheerleader and that's great. I luff you.
4) On my list of moms I know who I hope to be like when I'm a mom, you're near the top. You're a hero mom. From what you've told us, you're raising one badass daughter. I can't wait to see what she does later in life--I have a feeling it's going to be something amazing. And I know that she didn't just spring forth from the earth fully formed--who she is now and what she'll become later is a direct reflection of how amazing you are.
5) We've had a weird relationship right from the beginning, as I'm sure you know. However, on this last trip, it seemed like we've finally figured it out. I don't know if you're going to read this--I don't know if the Limey gave you the address or not--but if you do, I just wanted you to know what you meant to me. I've had some of the best conversations with you. You're whipsmart, funny, and always interesting. Whether we're discussing malted chocolate balls, classic country music, or where we actually met, I'm usually laughing. Thanks, squeaky wheel.
6) The first night we met, I curled up on a couch with you like a kitten. Then, we got trapped in that dark room in Atlanta. Ever since then, it seems like we spend an awful lot of time on overstuffed sofas or in dark corners together and you know what? It's pretty cool. Whether sending me emails that make me dance in my chair or appearing in my dreams, you're always happy-making. I think I can give you the whole night.
7) If I had this year to live over, would I allow you to break my leash again? Most definitely. It still makes me laugh that before we met I thought you were probably mean. Like I told you last month, I was pleasantly surprised to find out that you're the sweetest man in the world. You crack me up. I love you, you're way talented, and I'm proud to call you a friend. I will always give you pep talks.
8) Whee! I'm so glad we got to meet and indulge in two of my favorite things--getting lost in a big city and getting catty. I had a great time sitting in my Lilliputian hotel room and talking to you. Like I said back then when I reported it in my journal, you're funny and sweet and I luff you. Whether you're winning really pointy prestigious awards or really bobbly ones, you're awesome. Bottom line.
9) You've been one of my favorite voices since the Hissyfit days. I always enjoy your entries, particularly your photos. I loved the one of you on your birthday. That's my favorite one of you, I think. I'm glad that things have seemed to settle down in your life. I think things will only continue to get better. I wish you lots of luck. Give that cat a squeeze from me, okay?
10) Stop worrying about everything. No, stop it. You've got to have faith that the universe unfolds as it should. It does. It will. You're going to be fine. Have faith in the universe and have faith in yourself. Once you do, having good luck becomes like falling downhill. I love you. I believe in you. You'll do well.
Ooh, special bonus one:
11) Stop lifting whole incidents from my journal and posting them on messageboards as things that happened to you, kthx.

As Czar of Bobbleheads, I know this is about me. The Lilliputian hotel room was...just the right size. Intimate. Ho ho ho.
