Thank you

Well,
It's a Friday night and a Saturday morning all wrapped into one. About this time of night it blurs; it being my perception of time. I've had some incredible journeys this evening. After a pitcher of superb beer with a few friends, a home-cooked meal to refresh the taste buds, a movie ("Waking Life" - yes Thomas, I finally saw it), a sauntering walk up to a going-away party, hookah, handshakes, hugs, laughs, (inner) tears, AND, finally, a stroll home, I am adding to my blog after a month of silence.

My friends are awesome. I've been forging through novel terrain in my life for the past year now, and so many of my companions have stuck with me, giving 'shoulders' to lean on, cry on, and pound in frustration. Late-night conversations, phone calls, invitations (I wish I could accept them all), have been wonders to my soul. The Love of an amazing woman has kept me sane too; all these elements summing together, flowing into and through me. I have fortune beyond count.

I don't know what adventures are ahead, and that's just plain exciting. Terrifying, but thrilling too, a mix of emotions. I am tired, so adjectives are not coming easy, but I know, somehow, the Sun will shine again. The Sun will shine again. The Sun will shine again.

I Love you all.
