Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind

Full moon on the deck at the farm
Last night I re-watched Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind.  It made me realize that with the
heartache I've had over a few men in my life that I am still happy for the memories.  Those memories make me laugh, smile, frown and cry. But that's what living is about.  I'm looking forward to making more crazy-ass memories this summer.

It's been one year as of July 4th that Coco broke up with me.  One year of singleness.  One year of crying and missing and wondering.  Which is a long time for me, the longest in my adult life without some kind of longish term romance or boyfriend.  I think it's been helpful to help me know what I want in a partner and what I don't want. Also to remember that good friends are always more important in the long run.

I'm working and saving as much money as possible for my next adventure.  What ever and when ever that will be.  I know I'm not going to make it here in rainy cold Portland for another entire winter unless a miracle occurs. 

For those of you who are curious, Coco appears to be doing great!  He's back with his first true love and their 10 year old son living in Puerto Jimenez, camping, surfing and being a dad and hopefully a good partner appreciating what he has.
