Jacqueline Rose Leblanc (Dec 22, 2010 9:11:21 AM)
*and Jacqui is wandering through the sand- today she's in sandles and a long blue dress that falls to her ankles- a shawl around her shoulder for extra warmth from the bit of chill in the air*

Jacqueline Rose Leblanc (Dec 22, 2010 9:12:10 AM)
*Fi Fi is walking lazily behind her as she makes her way down the beach*

Jacqueline Rose Leblanc (Dec 22, 2010 9:13:05 AM)
(and in case you don't remember this is FiFi: https://sites.google.com/site/jacquelineroseleblanc/fi-fi )

Chris White (Dec 22, 2010 9:13:35 AM)
Chris came over some of the dunes after having parked his motorbike there. He had on a backpack that head several sections of fishing rod lashed to the side and promptly proceeded to walk down the beach and shrug off the pack and start digging stuff out. A plastic tube, a basic tackleboz and a tub of bait were first.

Jacqueline Rose Leblanc (Dec 22, 2010 9:14:38 AM)
*she would smile as she sees him- Fi Fi would of course run ahead and start the obligatory sniffing of him as she waves from a bit further off*

Chris White (Dec 22, 2010 9:16:28 AM)
Chris waved and then trying to keep the dog from eating the fish foods, he began to put the rod together piece by piece and get it rigged up with a hook and some good weights. All told the rod was bigger than he was by nearly half again his height and had a large spinning reel on it.

Jacqueline Rose Leblanc (Dec 22, 2010 9:18:30 AM)
*she would chuckles and call out* Fi Fi be good *which the dog takes to mean licking is still ok*

Chris White (Dec 22, 2010 9:20:31 AM)
Chris would load up the hook and then taking the pole in both hands, flipped open the bail and let the weighted line fly out as far as he could into the surf, making sure not to hook the dog in the process. Then he jammed tha plastic tube into the sand, slid the butt of the rod in and sat down on the beach to just watch the gulf. "He's ok, just didn't want to get him stuck."

Jacqueline Rose Leblanc (Dec 22, 2010 9:21:27 AM)
*chuckles* she's usually a sweetheart- she just likes to explore everyone new she meets *and apparently she thinks she's a lap dog as she now tries to crawl in his seemingly available lap*

Chris White (Dec 22, 2010 9:22:28 AM)
He drew the line at that, just blocking the dog's movement into his lap, she was far to big for lap crawling in his mind. "A real killer I can see."

Jacqueline Rose Leblanc (Dec 22, 2010 9:23:12 AM)
*chuckles* she's just viscious can't you tell- *and the dog would decide if she can't have the lap she'll just herd Jacqui toward him and keep them both safe*

Chris White (Dec 22, 2010 9:24:43 AM)
"I can...you look familiar, have I seen you out here before?"

Jacqueline Rose Leblanc (Dec 22, 2010 9:26:26 AM)
possibly- I spend a lot of time out on the beach- it's so peaceful and beautiful out here *siting down and of course letting the dog climb into her lap- no mystery where she got the idea that she was a lap dog*

Chris White (Dec 22, 2010 9:27:46 AM)
"Yeah, maybe that's it..." he still wasn't convinced though as he turned to watch the rod. Not like he might actually catch a fish but it always paid to watch right?

Jacqueline Rose Leblanc (Dec 22, 2010 9:28:04 AM)
*chuckles* what about you- do you spend a lot of time out here?

Chris White (Dec 22, 2010 9:29:30 AM)
"Not really, I come down a couple times a week or so to fish after a night of.." he paused briefly, "working. I had a girl though who wants to cook a meal for me and I thought it might be nice if I can actually catch a fresh snapper or something for her to cook."

Jacqueline Rose Leblanc (Dec 22, 2010 9:30:10 AM)
*chuckles* well I can't fish for anything, but I could introduce you to someone that might be able to help you

Chris White (Dec 22, 2010 9:31:38 AM)
"It's alright, worst case is I just buy one at the fish market." he winked at her. "I mostly just come down to clean out my lungs and soak up some winter sun, even if it's playing peekaboo today."

Jacqueline Rose Leblanc (Dec 22, 2010 9:32:18 AM)
*chuckles* the waves are the important part anyway

Chris White (Dec 22, 2010 9:32:56 AM)
"You should go to the Pacific Coast if you like waves. The only good ones we ever get here are when a hurricane is blowing through."

Jacqueline Rose Leblanc (Dec 22, 2010 9:34:16 AM)
nah- they don't need to be big waves- just the movement- the sparkle of the light as the water shifts- almost like it's a living breathing thing

Chris White (Dec 22, 2010 9:35:00 AM)
"Yeah, do you like fire too? It's kind of like that as well." He shrugged lightly.

Jacqueline Rose Leblanc (Dec 22, 2010 9:36:07 AM)
it's ok- *her eyes drifting over the water- obvious that she feels drawn to it* I've just always had a thing for the water *scritching the dogs ears as she talks*

Chris White (Dec 22, 2010 9:38:06 AM)
He nodded slightly, personally he wasn't that fascinated by it, but to each their own right? "I just like it cause it's kind of quiet, especially this time of year."

Jacqueline Rose Leblanc (Dec 22, 2010 9:38:49 AM)
*chuckles* and is that a hint that I should leave you alone?

Chris White (Dec 22, 2010 9:39:40 AM)
"Ohh no, I wasn't meaning talking...just city noise, the constant din in the background, you know? Here it's different even though there are the birds, and the waves and the wind."

Jacqueline Rose Leblanc (Dec 22, 2010 9:41:54 AM)
and the sound of people around you- you can almost feel the serge of their emotions all around you- the life cursing through them- but then again I might be one of the few people that adores a good crowd

Chris White (Dec 22, 2010 9:43:20 AM)
"Yeah, not my thing. Chad loves Raves and crowds and parties of all kind, but I never could appreciate it like he does."

Jacqueline Rose Leblanc (Dec 22, 2010 9:43:45 AM)
is that your boyfriend?

Chris White (Dec 22, 2010 9:44:33 AM)
"Boyfriend? He's my bud, but if you mean like some kind of gay lover thing...no." He chuckled at that a bit.

Jacqueline Rose Leblanc (Dec 22, 2010 9:46:39 AM)
*she would chuckle* sorry usualy when people bring somene up so soon to me their hinting that I shouldn't even consider them because they are with someone already

Chris White (Dec 22, 2010 9:48:11 AM)
"No, I was just commenting more than anything. But it's no worry, you wouldn't be the first girl to think I was gay. I just lack the fashion sense...well that and the natural attraction to hairy asses I guess."

Jacqueline Rose Leblanc (Dec 22, 2010 9:50:03 AM)
well you know their are certain things that are much more appealing with men than women

Chris White (Dec 22, 2010 9:50:38 AM)
"Maybe for you.."

Jacqueline Rose Leblanc (Dec 22, 2010 9:51:20 AM)
*she would smile* perhaps

Chris White (Dec 22, 2010 9:52:04 AM)
(On phone a minute

Chris White (Dec 22, 2010 9:56:13 AM)
"I find the female form much more appealing to the eye...soft and curved in all the right ways. The face and eyes softer...as is everything."

Jacqueline Rose Leblanc (Dec 22, 2010 9:56:56 AM)
*she would smile- obviously thinking of something* that can be nice at times- though a lot of times I prefer strength

Chris White (Dec 22, 2010 9:58:10 AM)
He chuckled at that. "Sorry, not my forte. I am more of a geek."

Jacqueline Rose Leblanc (Dec 22, 2010 9:58:36 AM)
you would be suprised what could be your forte if you wanted

Chris White (Dec 22, 2010 10:02:38 AM)
"Well I am sure I could start lifting weights and stuff but it's never been a natural yhing for me."

Jacqueline Rose Leblanc (Dec 22, 2010 10:03:10 AM)
their are types of strength other than just physical

Chris White (Dec 22, 2010 10:05:18 AM)
"Well...other than physical, I don't see any advantages or strengths in being a man that women don't share. At least some of them. For that matter I've seen plenty of women who were stronger than me physically as well."

Jacqueline Rose Leblanc (Dec 22, 2010 10:06:25 AM)
*she would smile* it's a bit hard to explain at times- but their is an element to men that women just don't seem to have

Chris White (Dec 22, 2010 10:07:32 AM)
"Well if you feel like trying, I've nothing else to do."

Jacqueline Rose Leblanc (Dec 22, 2010 10:08:53 AM)
*she would chuckle* so I'm just better than nothing is it?

Chris White (Dec 22, 2010 10:09:43 AM)
"Well you certainly are better than nothing. That is true." He winked at that, it was a true statement after all.

Jacqueline Rose Leblanc (Dec 22, 2010 10:10:31 AM)
*and the next thing he knows she's stood and moved over to his lap- leaving FiFi to sniff around them both* how much better?

Chris White (Dec 22, 2010 10:11:40 AM)
"Well I don't suppose I know hos much better since I don't really know you...at all." He fidget nervously with her so close.

Jacqueline Rose Leblanc (Dec 22, 2010 10:12:35 AM)
*she would smile at the fidgitting and play with his hair a bit* well what would you want from a woman like me

Chris White (Dec 22, 2010 10:14:10 AM)
"I was happy with just...uhh talking?" he swallowed nervously, sure this was some kind of trap Chad had sprung for him, like an America's Funniest Home Video set up.

Jacqueline Rose Leblanc (Dec 22, 2010 10:14:40 AM)
so you didn't really mean it when you offered?

Chris White (Dec 22, 2010 10:16:08 AM)
"Offered? I just offered for you to explain to me this strength thing that men have that women don't." He was stammering a bit now, largely confused.

Jacqueline Rose Leblanc (Dec 22, 2010 10:16:44 AM)
oh *doing her best to look innocent* I thought you were offering to show me how strong you could be

Chris White (Dec 22, 2010 10:17:59 AM)
"I'm...uhh...not strong, I thought I said that." He was now trying to wriggle away, entirely sure this was a trap of some kind, this stuff just didn't happen in the real world.

Jacqueline Rose Leblanc (Dec 22, 2010 10:18:54 AM)
*she would look a bit disapointed but move back away from him and go back to betting the dog* only because you don't want to be

Chris White (Dec 22, 2010 10:20:01 AM)
He seemed greatly relieved and relaxed a bit, looking around for a camera crew or something. "Some things are just...easier."

Jacqueline Rose Leblanc (Dec 22, 2010 10:21:39 AM)
easier to be lonely? *she really doesn't seem to understand the idea*

Chris White (Dec 22, 2010 10:22:21 AM)
"Easier to just be what you are. I'm good at what I do, why mess with that in an attempt to be something I was not meant to be?"

Jacqueline Rose Leblanc (Dec 22, 2010 10:23:24 AM)
because people aren't meant to be alone

Chris White (Dec 22, 2010 10:23:52 AM)
"I'm not really lonely though. So does that make me alone?"

Jacqueline Rose Leblanc (Dec 22, 2010 10:24:08 AM)
do you have someone to share things with and be close to?

Chris White (Dec 22, 2010 10:25:16 AM)
"Depends...I can share somethings with Chad, he is the only friend I ever really had. BUt by and large I don't feel like I need to be close to anyone.

Jacqueline Rose Leblanc (Dec 22, 2010 10:25:55 AM)
*it's obvious that it's such an alien concept to her* I don't know what I would do with out people to be close to

Chris White (Dec 22, 2010 10:26:43 AM)
"It takes all kinds to make the world go round. I don't begrudge you your lifestyle, in fact I am one fo the people who probably help provide it."

Jacqueline Rose Leblanc (Dec 22, 2010 10:27:10 AM)
*looks at him confused* in what way?

Chris White (Dec 22, 2010 10:27:33 AM)
"You look like you enjoy a little modern chemistry via illicit pharmaceuticals?"

Jacqueline Rose Leblanc (Dec 22, 2010 10:30:18 AM)
and what would ever make you say that? *watching him curiously*

Chris White (Dec 22, 2010 10:30:57 AM)
"You just seem like the type." He shrugged at that.

Jacqueline Rose Leblanc (Dec 22, 2010 10:31:41 AM)
*chuckles* the type huh? is that code for you work for the dea and want me to say something incriminating?

Chris White (Dec 22, 2010 10:33:12 AM)
"No, I really don't care. I don't deal it anyway." He leaned back in the sand. "I was just commenting that because of people like me alot of people in this town are not lonely."

Jacqueline Rose Leblanc (Dec 22, 2010 10:33:52 AM)
*looking sadly at him* in a way that makes you being alone even more sad

Chris White (Dec 22, 2010 10:35:25 AM)
He laughed a bit at that. "I'm not sad at all. Everynow and then I find a nice girl, but usually it always ends up trouble, so after awhile...it just ceases to be worth it, yanno?"

Jacqueline Rose Leblanc (Dec 22, 2010 10:38:05 AM)
why does it end up in trouble?

Chris White (Dec 22, 2010 10:39:13 AM)
"Well let's see...last serious girl I had got pregnant, got an abortion without even telling me, then when I got upset, went to the University and got me kicked out on my ass ruining any shot I had at my PHD."

Jacqueline Rose Leblanc (Dec 22, 2010 10:40:11 AM)
just because one girl was nuts doesn't mean they all are- I can't have children myself, but I know many that can and would be much more mature about it if they got pregnant

Chris White (Dec 22, 2010 10:40:57 AM)
"It's not just the one. I have never had good luck with women. I'm kind of like the anti cassanova, but it's ok. It's just part of who I am."

Jacqueline Rose Leblanc (Dec 22, 2010 10:42:01 AM)
*she would move close to him again- just petting him gently- letting her fingers slide down his face* have you ever stopped to think about what you would want out of a relationship or just taken what ever falls into your lap each time

Chris White (Dec 22, 2010 10:42:35 AM)
"I don't even take everything that falls into my lap. Or we might be having a very different talk right now..."

Jacqueline Rose Leblanc (Dec 22, 2010 10:42:58 AM)
so what do you want?

Chris White (Dec 22, 2010 10:43:32 AM)
"Nothing? I don't really want any relationships right now. Hell I am just happy that a girl is going to cooka real dinner for me that I don't have to buy at a restaraunt."

Dr. Lucien Ikaeda (Dec 22, 2010 10:43:50 AM)
(This user has entered Beach) (IP = 212.50.134.27)

Jacqueline Rose Leblanc (Dec 22, 2010 10:43:58 AM)
why don't you want any relationships now?

Dr. Lucien Ikaeda (Dec 22, 2010 10:44:03 AM)
-sits on the beach writing in his journal-

Dr. Lucien Ikaeda (Dec 22, 2010 10:44:38 AM)
-he practises writing in japanese too so he is slow at some of the characters as he tries to do them right-

Jacqueline Rose Leblanc (Dec 22, 2010 10:44:43 AM)
*Jacqui is in sandles and a long blue dress sitting almost touching Chris and letting her fingers run over his face and play with his hair- FiFi has given up herding them and is just laying against him*

Chris White (Dec 22, 2010 10:46:54 AM)
There is also a large surf rod stuck in the sand, though nothing seems to be biting.

Chris White (Dec 22, 2010 10:48:09 AM)
"I'm not happy with where my life has gone, but I guess I can be happy enough with what I have left. Does that make any sense?"

Dr. Lucien Ikaeda (Dec 22, 2010 10:49:09 AM)
-luc is distracted by his own thoughts so really isn't looking around at who is there-

Jacqueline Rose Leblanc (Dec 22, 2010 10:50:31 AM)
not really- if you don't like where it has gone why don't you work on fixing it?

Chris White (Dec 22, 2010 10:51:08 AM)
"Cause what I have is working. Don't fix what isn't broken or else you might just end up making it worse."

Jacqueline Rose Leblanc (Dec 22, 2010 10:51:48 AM)
that's a sad way to look at the world, what would you do if you could get back into school?

Dr. Lucien Ikaeda (Dec 22, 2010 10:52:42 AM)
-he glances up a moment and finally looks around but its more of a perception exercise. luc does not really know anyone about now. he thinks a few look familar in the distance. right the french market people. offers a faint wave and they wave back. luc grins faintly then continues writing-

Chris White (Dec 22, 2010 10:53:31 AM)
"Don't know if I even want back in now." He shrugged lightly. "Some things once ruined, just are never the same. I mean look at me now, I don't have to do anything at anytime that I don't want to. I'm living a dog's life more or less. Eat when I want to, sleep when I want to, work when I want to."

Jacqueline Rose Leblanc (Dec 22, 2010 10:54:26 AM)
and you are all alone- no one for you to love- no one to keep you warm at night- no one to share the joy of life with you- no one to hold you when you need to cry

Dr. Lucien Ikaeda (Dec 22, 2010 10:55:02 AM)
(boo hoo.... -cries- haha -munches popcorn- )

Chris White (Dec 22, 2010 10:55:06 AM)
"Like I would want anyone around the rare times I need to cry anyway."

Jacqueline Rose Leblanc (Dec 22, 2010 10:56:24 AM)
why wouldn't you- that's what life is about- it's about sharing your experiences

Dr. Lucien Ikaeda (Dec 22, 2010 10:56:43 AM)
-its a plesant day so luc stands and walks down to the waters edge. he beings to follow besides the surf just enjoying the moment. his journal is kept by his side as he goes-

Jacqueline Rose Leblanc (Dec 22, 2010 10:56:47 AM)
(please refrain from making rude comments while you are in a scene that you are specificaly not interacting with ic anyway)

Chris White (Dec 22, 2010 10:56:55 AM)
"Maybe for you. Everyone has different expecttaions out of life."

Jacqueline Rose Leblanc (Dec 22, 2010 10:57:16 AM)
*she would nod and watch him* are you really happy like that?

Chris White (Dec 22, 2010 11:01:24 AM)
"Happy? I don't know if I'd go so far as to say I am overjoyed. I'm just satisfied, comfortable."

Dr. Lucien Ikaeda (Dec 22, 2010 11:01:49 AM)
-luc finds some stones and tries to skip them-

Jacqueline Rose Leblanc (Dec 22, 2010 11:01:54 AM)
so you should work on making yourself happy then

Chris White (Dec 22, 2010 11:02:58 AM)
He just shook his head a bit and grinned, he couldn't help it. "Why are you so worried about my happiness anyway, an hour ago I was just another face in a sea of humanity."

Dr. Lucien Ikaeda (Dec 22, 2010 11:03:46 AM)
-then he looks over and remembers chris. the man who was so frightened of the hot woman that he ran off. he wonders-

Jacqueline Rose Leblanc (Dec 22, 2010 11:03:47 AM)
I want to see everyone happy *watching him with those heavenly blue eyes of hers*

Chris White (Dec 22, 2010 11:04:37 AM)
"Well a noble goal, but quite impossible I'm afraid."

Jacqueline Rose Leblanc (Dec 22, 2010 11:04:54 AM)
why would you say that?

Dr. Lucien Ikaeda (Dec 22, 2010 11:05:23 AM)
-he shrugs lightly and starts over towards him-

Chris White (Dec 22, 2010 11:06:25 AM)
"Well if you believe in the whole Adama and Eve theory...when humanity ate the fruit of the tree of knowledge we gave up any real shot at pur and lasting blissful happiness. Or if you don't believe in ancient tomes fanciful tales you can simply say that with knowledge comes misery."

Dr. Lucien Ikaeda (Dec 22, 2010 11:06:59 AM)
-he blinks- really deep.... hi. you seemed familiar so i thught i'd say hello -faint shrug-

Jacqueline Rose Leblanc (Dec 22, 2010 11:07:07 AM)
it doesn't have to- people can be happy with out being stupid little pets incablable of understanding the world around them

Chris White (Dec 22, 2010 11:08:11 AM)
He looked up at Lucien. "Ohh hello there..." Squinting a bit as if trying to place him but coming up blank. "I come down here fishing from time to time, maybe you've seen me before."

Dr. Lucien Ikaeda (Dec 22, 2010 11:08:32 AM)
in the french market running away.... it was odd. were you alright?

Chris White (Dec 22, 2010 11:09:43 AM)
"Running away...Ohhh." He squinted slightly. "You must mean the day Rubina spotted me there and wanted me to come over. She gives me the creeps."

Dr. Lucien Ikaeda (Dec 22, 2010 11:10:15 AM)
-he places his journal in his messenger bag- oh.... i missed that vibe off of her, she kinda cool to me -faint grin-

Jacqueline Rose Leblanc (Dec 22, 2010 11:10:24 AM)
*she would chuckle and pull him a little closer to her* you don't seem that afraid of women to me

Chris White (Dec 22, 2010 11:10:36 AM)
"To each their own...that's what this young woman and I were discussing."

Chris White (Dec 22, 2010 11:10:49 AM)
Was...squeezed...

Dr. Lucien Ikaeda (Dec 22, 2010 11:12:04 AM)
she seems to like you.... i'll leave you to it then -faint nod and he turns to go-

Jacqueline Rose Leblanc (Dec 22, 2010 11:12:26 AM)
*she would chuckle* see even your friend agrees

Chris White (Dec 22, 2010 11:13:10 AM)
"Ahhh...alright? Have a good day sir?" He shrugged a bit as he looked to Jacque. "Agrees with what?"

Jacqueline Rose Leblanc (Dec 22, 2010 11:13:30 AM)
that he should enjoy himself

Dr. Lucien Ikaeda (Dec 22, 2010 11:13:35 AM)
sir? nah just lucien.....

Chris White (Dec 22, 2010 11:14:17 AM)
"Fair enough Lucien, hopefully I'll remember you next time we should meet." Then back to Jackie. "He can enjoy himself all he wants, i would not stand in his path."

Dr. Lucien Ikaeda (Dec 22, 2010 11:14:30 AM)
and you are?

Chris White (Dec 22, 2010 11:14:54 AM)
He blushed a bit. "My apologies I am so terrible with manners, my name is Chris."

Jacqueline Rose Leblanc (Dec 22, 2010 11:14:59 AM)
but it's your path you are standing in not his

Jacqueline Rose Leblanc (Dec 22, 2010 11:15:10 AM)
*speaking to Chris as she says that*

Dr. Lucien Ikaeda (Dec 22, 2010 11:15:29 AM)
so i have some name instead of man running away in the market square..... ah ok -finding this interaction a bit amusing-

Dr. Lucien Ikaeda (Dec 22, 2010 11:16:11 AM)
who is this he, you mean chris? sure let him go and enjoy life, there's only one go at it -faint shrug-

Jacqueline Rose Leblanc (Dec 22, 2010 11:16:20 AM)
*offering her delicate hand* Jacqueline and this is Fi Fi *motioning to the large sleeping dog*

Chris White (Dec 22, 2010 11:16:48 AM)
"I thought she meant you, but apparently she thinks I am standing in my own way." He laughed lightly at that.

Dr. Lucien Ikaeda (Dec 22, 2010 11:17:11 AM)
kind of hard to follow.... well nice to meet you -he shakes the woman's hand-

Jacqueline Rose Leblanc (Dec 22, 2010 11:17:40 AM)
that's because you are- their is no such things as good enough- only happy or not

Chris White (Dec 22, 2010 11:18:10 AM)
"Well if you want to word it that way then i guess I am happy. I'm certainly not sad and moping."

Jacqueline Rose Leblanc (Dec 22, 2010 11:18:40 AM)
I don't believe you

Chris White (Dec 22, 2010 11:19:23 AM)
"Alright...well that's your perogative I suppose. I'm certainly not going to argue it on such a beautiful day as this."

Dr. Lucien Ikaeda (Dec 22, 2010 11:19:37 AM)
maybe he just doesn't want you to think less of him.... so he covers up his feelings to just seem as you like -faint shrug-

nah if he did that we'd be on our way to my bed by now *just said rather matter of factly*

Chris White (Dec 22, 2010 11:22:13 AM)
"Whisked away to a strangers boudoir...ahh the life." He winked to Lucien. "What about you Lucien are you happy in life?"

Dr. Lucien Ikaeda (Dec 22, 2010 11:22:31 AM)
thats a loaded question for just about a stranger......

Chris White (Dec 22, 2010 11:22:43 AM)
"Exactly."

Jacqueline Rose Leblanc (Dec 22, 2010 11:23:50 AM)
really it should be a simple question

Dr. Lucien Ikaeda (Dec 22, 2010 11:25:55 AM)
its a strange one at that... one i expect from the psychology people... -faint shrug- and i passed my evaluations so yes they agree i am alright in life and able to perform my medical duties properly

Chris White (Dec 22, 2010 11:26:04 AM)
(yay I just HBO and Cinemax for 5 bucks a month for a year cause of a billing error)

Chris White (Dec 22, 2010 11:27:23 AM)
"Fact is I believe true happiness, joy in all things is a sheer impossibility. The best any of us can hope for as a baseline is to be satisfied."

Jacqueline Rose Leblanc (Dec 22, 2010 11:28:02 AM)
but you are wrong- I'm happy *then looking to Lucien* their is a diffrence between functional and happy

Dr. Lucien Ikaeda (Dec 22, 2010 11:28:09 AM)
i don't agree there but if there are not also bad things to go along with those good things, always feeling happy all the time would be more like feeling retarded

Jacqueline Rose Leblanc (Dec 22, 2010 11:30:20 AM)
their are bad things, but you shouldn't let fear of them keep you from being happy

Chris White (Dec 22, 2010 11:30:50 AM)
Chris fell silent for a bit, just watching his rod with a consternated look.

Dr. Lucien Ikaeda (Dec 22, 2010 11:33:20 AM)
yet the fear and the conflict pushes one more and helps them grow..... i wouldn't say happy. that is too simplistic. its more of a feeling that one is doing well and cares about their place in the world perhaps

Jacqueline Rose Leblanc (Dec 22, 2010 11:36:55 AM)
nah sometimes simple is nice- happy is nice

Chris White (Dec 22, 2010 11:43:33 AM)
"If you have to think about it that much it's not really a question. I'm happier than I should expect to be, satisfied with what I have, so therefore I am happy."

Jacqueline Rose Leblanc (Dec 22, 2010 11:44:49 AM)
why are you happier than you should expect to be- everyone should expect to be happy

Dr. Lucien Ikaeda (Dec 22, 2010 11:45:43 AM)
i wouldn't say one should be satisfied, always new chalanges to face and things to strive for..... like my influences over things in hospital... always needing improvement

Chris White (Dec 22, 2010 11:49:19 AM)
"Because I'm not miserable?" He chuckled at that. "Lucien is right there are always things to improve, but I tend to think of things in black and white..happy or not. I'm not miserable so therefore I am happy."

Jacqueline Rose Leblanc (Dec 22, 2010 11:49:55 AM)
are you really happy? their is nothing more you want from life?

Chris White (Dec 22, 2010 11:50:35 AM)
"Well I could really go for a cold beer...but..." he reached in his pack and pulled out a bottle that was in a cozy. "I plan ahead!"

Dr. Lucien Ikaeda (Dec 22, 2010 11:51:07 AM)
but there are so many hues inbetween that where people move back and forth between in their feelings or just sadly become stuck i suppose -faint sigh as he considers the ghosties on his mind-

Jacqueline Rose Leblanc (Dec 22, 2010 11:52:44 AM)
that's why I always keep things fresh- always look for something new to entertain me

Chris White (Dec 22, 2010 11:54:04 AM)
He cracked open the beer and took a sip as he looked back to the rod and tugged on the line a bit. "Crabs probably stole my bait by now."

Jacqueline Rose Leblanc (Dec 22, 2010 11:54:40 AM)
perhaps- maybe you should learn to get the things in the sand

Dr. Lucien Ikaeda (Dec 22, 2010 11:54:59 AM)
you can catch and eat those too. they are a delicacy

Chris White (Dec 22, 2010 11:57:08 AM)
"I would imagine there are better ways to catch crabs using traps."

Dr. Lucien Ikaeda (Dec 22, 2010 11:58:35 AM)
its a more creative way.... maybe its more fun? -he shrugs lightly-

Jacqueline Rose Leblanc (Dec 22, 2010 12:00:19 PM)
I don't know- I think it's crawfish that Armand catches that way though

Chris White (Dec 22, 2010 12:00:44 PM)
"I never could get into eating crawdads."

Dr. Lucien Ikaeda (Dec 22, 2010 12:01:32 PM)
oh, i don't mind them but i don't eat them that often

Jacqueline Rose Leblanc (Dec 22, 2010 12:01:35 PM)
I grew up down here- they're just part of the menue

Chris White (Dec 22, 2010 12:04:10 PM)
"Well...I hate to be a joykill, but time to pack it up. Been a pleasure talking to you both." He grabbed the rod and began to reel it in slowly.

Dr. Lucien Ikaeda (Dec 22, 2010 12:05:50 PM)
yea you too.... -watches the reel to see if he caught anything-

Jacqueline Rose Leblanc (Dec 22, 2010 12:06:10 PM)
*smirking playfully at him* do I at least get a phone number?

Chris White (Dec 22, 2010 12:07:14 PM)
Of course there was nothin but an empty hook once it was reeled in. (Ok I gotta scoot!)

*pouts playfully at him as he wanders off and gets bounced by Fi Fi for her trouble*

Dr. Lucien Ikaeda (Dec 22, 2010 12:08:13 PM)
maybe get him a flower and see if he runs away....

Jacqueline Rose Leblanc (Dec 22, 2010 12:08:54 PM)
*she woud chuckle and pet the dog* it's his loss- it's not like I actually need another lover- I just wanted to see him smile

Dr. Lucien Ikaeda (Dec 22, 2010 12:10:29 PM)
well maybe he knows that too... so didn't bother. well i ought to be going as well.... my shift starts in a few hours

Dr. Lucien Ikaeda (Dec 22, 2010 12:11:11 PM)
i figured why not spend some time outside first and the beach is a good place to think

Jacqueline Rose Leblanc (Dec 22, 2010 12:11:29 PM)
*she would nod and stand up to go walking further down the beach with Fifi* good meeting you

Dr. Lucien Ikaeda (Dec 22, 2010 12:12:17 PM)
you too -luc now continues on his way back up towards the dunes-
