rain for days

Wonderfulness: Jenny and Jung Hee holding me accountable to reading scripture. Jenny's challenge at CG last night to me to read 2 chapters before an episode of a Kdrama, and Jung Hee holding me to it today; fun laughing about the dearth of k-boys round here, and she saying she get's first dibs-- won't be competing "with a white girl" -- aa being startled and me being like, yeah she can totally talk to me like that. JH calls it like it is, and we're cool like that. Haha, hilarious. JH saying "we've got to find you a good guy, Marcelle, I'm gonna be keeping my eye out for one for you". She's so good to me. That i'm such an anomaly in my preferences. Discussed masculinity and gender roles defined. Quirky humor. Laughed our heads off. Good talk too with Aa about compatibility and what "flaws" you can and cannot live with in a potential spouse. How you don't know until it's too late to avoid getting hurt. How the most incredible art, be it words, music, images, comes out of deep/intense pain. How people are a mystery, individually and in groups. Literature and music. It was a good evening.
