seems high time!

for another authentic blog post.

here is the most recent picture of me ever taken!



that is now a lie!




you might note the continued long length of my hair. now, with layers! i have taken to washing it with plain bar soap, with favorable results.

but of course, this is not the stuff of my life. the stuff of my life is listed below.

1. continuous disappointments with self
2. room full of carpet-crawling ants, periodically annihilated en masse by vacuum
3. zero romance
4. musical explorations
5. continued french studies
6. continued satisfying work experiences (though some sixth grade girls are BITCHES)
7. moods which seem maybe to oscillate with the weather
8. lack of direction
9. paying big bucks to the IRS
10. listening to podcasts
11. bike riding
12. picture taking
13. the occasional doldrums

i don't know. i really don't know right now what i am doing/what is up with me.

will i spend my day off tomorrow working on these long feared but never yet confronted peace corps essays? i certainly hope so.
will i wake up at a decent hour? god permitting.
will i eat well and do any exercise besides biking? time will tell.

and so it is with me.

i love you all.
let us all move forward as best we can!
