Alive and Kicking!

I stopped writing in 2012, for reasons too big to get into fully. Let's just say that I  did finally 'acquire a gentlemen'....and well, let's just say this is my current relationship status:



So many new things since then!
Here are 7 of them, a kinda JoyList for the last 3 years:

  • Saw the West Coast of the USA - twice! 
  • Remembered what limits and sequences and numbers are...because I'm pursuing a math degree!
  • Read everything I could find on Ted Bundy, including the book by his longterm girlfriend Liz, which cost me $143 (which is a STEAL for this out of print book!)
  • Wrote to Joyce Maynard, the author, and SHE WROTE ME BACK
  • Caught 2 balls at Orioles games, and started "BIRDFACE"!
  • Became an empty nester. Which is a tiny amonnt sad for me, relative to the size of happiness and goodness for my kids. So that's a good trade. Plus Imma end up living near them anyways
  • Started seeing live bands almost all the time, sorta 'groupie'-ish for a few of them
I'm realizing I'm writing this blog as if I still have friends reading it (during the dating, I had friends reading and providing advice). Maybe you guys will read it again. (If so, hellllooooo from the otherrrr sideeeee)
Or maybe it will now be an online journal of a sort, to keep track of ideas. 
Either way, I'm back!
