Hey there! I think my mind crossed yours in these days cuz a letter to you was in my immediate to-do-list. I'd probably write it today if you didn't surprise me with your web-update! I missed you! It's good to know that everything is fine and you relaxed, or that's what surfaces from your post anyway. I'm also glad you have the energy back to plan new changes. A nurse? It's quite engaging as a job, both on a physical and a psychological side (it might drain you to see people suffering every day, or at least it would to me). Anyway, enjoy your biology class.
You asked to be caught up with us. Well, I just made an update: here, plus I opened an art -journal: colorlover. That's it. Love to hear from you again!
I've been peeking in here and there so you probably pick up on that but I'm always to happy to hear from you whether it's here or a letter.
Things are ever so slowly turning around but I feel good about the moves I've been making lately. I have 2 friends who are nurses and so I know how demanding it can be but they were both thrilled to hear that I would be following in their footsteps. Well, maybe thrilled isn't the right word. One of them said, Geez, what took you so long? since she's been trying to talk me into it for many a year. I fully intend to sound off of them frequently. ::grin::
I signed up for your comm. The icons are really lovely and I totally get the Han Solo love. I had such a crush on him ...
I'll catch up with you more soon. Take care, my sweet!
My sweet girl, it's no excuse, I know, but I come from a long line of ruddy-faced kin who miss birthdays and I seem to be carrying on the not-so-grand tradition of my people. That said, I want you to know that your birthday is no different than any other day ::gasp:: - hold on - in that I only wish the best for you every single day.
First I wanna watch Shelter. The video must be one of the most sweet, romantic things I've seen. Why do I live in this forgotten place inthe world, why? I need to know when I can have it!
Secondly, but more important, HI! HI YOU! *glomps* It fills my heart with love reading your update. *loves you*
Last, not a lot going on in my life, as you know. So I just live other's people lives - vicariously. It's fun ;)
Doesn't Shelter make you melt? I don't think I've anticipated watching a film so much since Brokeback Mountain. I'm hoping that some kind soul will upload it to Google Video or somewhere after it shows on the here! network. I don't think I can wait until the end of May. ::is so spoiled::
So I just live other's people lives - vicariously.
Please note how I summed up my own life in about a paragraph and then went on and on for several paragraphs (with video!) about other people and characters. Living vicariously is about the only thing that gets me out of the house. ::hee!::
I have missed your presence too. I haven't done anything exciting of late mostly just sticking with the tried and true of a slow and boring life on the hill (and no I'm not at all complaining because I really do appreciate boring!)
Oh, I am doing something a little out of the ordinary. I've started writing. Usually nothing more than about 1K words a day which is a paltry few I know. My 7K as of today was to relay my recollection of my 1st ex husband's visit last year. It was a veritable freak show and I hoped that the humor (and maybe a little pathos) reigned supreme.
I emailed it off tonight to an old friend who knows the party in question. I'm looking forward to hearing what she thought of all the sturm und drang.
I wish you continuing good fortune with life, your job and happiness. Although as far as nursing stuff? blech! as I like to tell my good friend Melinda, a career nurse, I'm just thrilled that there are people like you all out there who will take care of that runny stuff :)
I once tried to write my own story but it sounded so over the top ::hears Steve Martin in The Jerk: I was born a poor black child...:: that I tossed it out. I really admire someone who can look at their own life clear-eyed.
Ahhh, life on the hill. Seriously, I want a hill just like yours.
I'm pretty stoic with the runny stuff but I need to acclimate myself to working more with people. I've spent the last 20 or so years working in a lab on second and third shift so I've gotten use to being on my own. I'm looking forward to school not only for the program but also to brush up my people skills. There should be a 101 class for that, don't you think? How to live and work with the general population without having to retreat to a ladies room stall to calm down. The class would be packed, I'm sure.

I'll look into Raised by Wolves - thanks for the rec and also the photo links from the movie preview!

I really hope you like Raised by Wolves. It's a great summertime read and very moving, which I wasn't expecting.

You're the second person who's told me about mems_derynicat. I'm gonna go parachute into her journal. I really need some Raised by Wolves squee.
