for those who haven't heard yet, i have moved back to texas... i'm living in houston with my girlfriend leslie and so far and still having trouble adjusting to the heat again... also, getting into the mindset that i am here to live and not just for vacation is not quite sticking though it will likely change once my stuff that i shipped down here ( Read more... )

recent news... lightly sprained my ankle yesterday so i am at home staying off of it... swelling has gone way down... due to this time off my feet and at home i have a bit of time to write in this journal... so i'm going to go back and type up the long vacation entry i've been putting off until i had time... this will likely be a bit long so i'll ( Read more... )
