Yes, there's precious few times when I'll actually admit it, but this is one of them. So I brought everything I need to Vegas to take pics -- my camera, my battery recharger, my computer, an Ethernet cable to hook up to the Internet... but I forgot the damn cable to connect my camera to the computer to download images from my Memory Stick. This means, you lovely 3 people who read my blog, that you'll have to wait until I arrive home Friday night to see the pretty pictures I've been taking. I guess I'm okay with the whole woman thing. I mean, not really, but I have no choice, right? I guess the real hell of it all is that I have to start completely over. And everyone knows how hard it is to meet people in Los Angeles; plus, the fact that I've limited myself to Jewish women doesn't help. And it also doesn't help that I genuinely liked this woman... we got along really well. I thought we really clicked. Will someone please explain to me how you can be friends with someone you still have feelings for and someone you're attracted to? The only real thing I don't understand in this situation is that she says that she really cares about me as a friend, but she also is physically attracted to me and wants to jump me. Isn't that the basis of a relationship right there, or am I completely and totally off? I think my biggest problem is that I can never stop thinking -- unless I get drunk or I sleep, and sometimes getting to sleep is difficult because my brain is always engaged and working. How do you stop yourself from thinking? How do you stop from dwelling on something and going over it again and again in your head and focusing on a single issue when your brain is constantly in gear?
