That being said…

i am tired. how did i ever have time to work? but things are looking up…and about to get a little crazier. we are going to atl this weekend and that will be good to get away…next weekend i have an interview for a ph.d. program and then 3 days later we close on our new house. i’m excited but not looking forward to packing to move. but shopping for the new house will be most fun!

i don’t think i have ever spent as much time on the internet as i have lately. i much confess that i have been sucked into the wide world of facebook and myspace (though i definitely prefer facebook). it has been good, though, to reconnect with old friends and see where they are and hear their stories. it’s also nice to realize that i have more energy and more energy to put into relationships and other people now. it is amazing how we measure progress. i am still tired and lack the energy i once had, but i don’t know for sure that i will ever get that back anyway. and that’s ok. a very wise man said that as we get older we trade energy for wisdom. now, don’t get me wrong, there are many days i would love to be energetic and blissfully ignorant, but then i wouldn’t be who i am now. wounded though i am, i am a pretty cool person and a much better person by far than i was 3 years ago. it was just a high price to pay to get here.
