The Zen Lill Dealio

I’m not much into giving autobiographical details in chronological order, it’s just not my dealio.

If we meet (or if we don’t and you just keep reading blog entries here) and we’re talking I’m sure many factual yet funny, insightful, reckless, responsible, careless, accountable, sweet, totally bitchy, banal and colorful stories will emerge, you just have to talk to me long enough : ) oh and how ’bout we skip the banal, who cares about any of that?

Yes, I am interesting and interested, in whoever I happen to find myself talking to, I love to find out what makes that person tick…I’m very interested in what is of interest to them, what moves them, what makes them take action, what words uplift them, what words have the opposite effect (so I can use them very little, if at all), what I can do to assist should my assistance be sought out, what kind of self talk helps them get their day going…

And, if all that wasn’t so fun it’d be exhausting wondering all these things, but this kind of exchange makes my day, everyday…what can I say? I’m easy : ) but never in that way.

But, now that I mentioned that, (what, what’d'I miss, you ask? pssst, it’s the ‘easy’ thing) I love touch, yes, I’m a very tactile individual. I’m into textures: smooth, soft, silky and rough (but not too) and rarely do I miss the opportunity to touch anothers skin (you know, when and where appropriate, hahaha…) it’s a touchy feely thing, or it could even be an Italian thing?

I’m of Italian descent (my father’s people are Calabrese, land of the hard-headed or so they say. I can be stubborn but not overly so, hmm, yes, that’s my story and I’m sticking to it. I’m apparently also of Irish descent (mother’s side) and cannot and do not relate to this cultural side much but I sure can drink when I put my mind to it ; )

So what’s the ‘catch’? Yes, well, in return for all that interest and attention of mine, I require some of the same attentive courtesy in return, that is if it is to be a mutually satisfying exchange. Most people I’ve met do this naturally…but not all. When that inattentiveness occurs, instantly or eventually they are set free…

This following fact will make people who know me laugh but it’s true whether they witness it or not; I am a social loner, is that an oxymoron? No, not really, I love people and being around them but I require fairly long periods of solitude, and that’s not always easy to pull off. It can offend some…but they’re usually people who do not require solitude : )

I think that covers the Zen Lill dealio…

Have a q? E-mail me at Lmdevin@att.net, I’ll answer privately or in my blog entry the next day. Use your real name or a ‘call name,’ either way works for me just fine. I’m not a private eye and do not care to find out about anyone who doesn’t want to be found out, capice?
