has it really only been two weeks!?!

not since i last wrote, obviously. that's been more like six months! two weeks since i flew from boston leaving behind a sickly young man eating oyster crackers to soothe an upset stomach. hours of phone talking, postcard&letter-writing, and telepathic (hmm?) communication later it seems like oodles more than two weeks have gone by since i've seen this particular nerdling. anywho, yesterday was a momentous day for several reasons but one big result was that i've been inspired to start writing again. for whoever's benefit. mine mainly, i imagine. :-) (silly note to add: my mind has not left maine. as i typed "mainly" it came out "mainely" that may actually be more reflective of my terrible spelling, than any affiliation i have with that dear east-coast state!) nerdling reminded me of my post about icarus and i didn't remember the faintest about what i'd written. time to revisit. many things have changed over the six months since i last wrote, but i seem to still agree with my post. good sign. i'm still me.

i don't really know where to begin this post for two big reasons. one, its been so long and two, my brain is very scattered and there is too much to write. let this be a warm-up post, then. tonight i will contemplate how to approach this forgotten blog. :-) thank you nerdling, for inspiring me with amazing conversations, really challenging questions, and most of all for your humor and love. after all, that's what life is about, right? i mean, when your orthodontist asks you a question while his fingers are in your mouth, sometimes you really just have to bite...

happy june... happy graduation (to soo many people!)... happy birthday (to nagymama!)... happy happy happy!!! i'm happy to be back in seattle. :-)
