I'm alive! Really!

I've been on a bit of a LJ hiatus and, truth be told, it's probably going to continue. But first, some updates.

-Rather than writing my own "year in review," i'm just posting this-Two black bears ran in front of my car while I was driving home the other night. They were hanging out in front of my house and ran while I pulled up ( Read more... )

For a bit now i've been dabbling with the idea of getting a new (read: new for me, but still previously used because i'm cheap) car.

While at Epcot with my cousins Amanda and Max yesterday I ran into, of all people, my COUSINS Andrew and Sue who live in Virginia. I never thought i'd say this, but ( Read more... )

I miss the snow.
