the number eight

do you ever form opinions just to have a sure stance one something? i plead guilty. for instance, 8. i like it. i haven't quite decided the deeper reasoning beyond my tendencies to use the number as an elaboration, or story intensifier. i simply believe it has a nice ring to it. "9," sounds rather boring to my ears while "8," carries with it a strange sort of mystery.

(and it's not even my favorite number. i suppose i do feel that "8" seems a bit neglected. and i would like the hear the number receive some credit for its existance.)

emma checked out uwsuperior today- and she likes it.

coffee. wanna go? (depending on who acts as the company-- variation= likly. but the occasion seems to hold implication to more than hot liquid within a styro-foam container. ...explains the craze over "going for coffee." if it were nothing beyond styro-foam-- why not save $3 and sip out of the mug your aunt gave you when you graduated high school? yeah, i think i have convinced myself. i think going for coffee is more than that. more than hot liquid in styro-foam.) the night was lovely. challanging, encouraging. lovely. same place, same time- next week?

  2. coffee=conversation. some have yet to discover the math behind 'going for coffee'. coffees good but the conversation with it leaves the true flavor and sensation of it all. glad to find you know its true existance. we need to do it more my dear. i love the talks. and yes it was lovely.

  3. You know, other than one, eight is the only number that begins with a vowel. I think that adds some uniqueness to it.

  4. very cool. until, eleven comes along. than the "only-number-except-for-1-to-start-with-a-vowel-excitment" is set to the side. (in the 1-10 rankings: eight is right up there, next to one.) hmmm. worthy number eight, we like you.
