Hi everyone-- I know it's been over a month, but I'm alive! I really must come out of hiding. I wasn't very active on SG the past month or so. I wast too busy withdrawing from another semester of school and being mopey, annnnnnd getting into a car accident (that wasn't my fault.) Some woman rear-ended me and it messed up my neck for awhile, and basically ruined whatever I had left for the semester.

Things happen though. Through the misfortune of having no car for weeks, I've found, now that it's fixed, that I'm trying to do things that make me happen again. For instance, I took up guitar lessons again with my old instructor. It's been six years! I used to be really good with jazz charts, etc. And, I'm going to the gym every day. I have a lot of time on my hands and I hope people don't see me as lazy. But I really burned out the first years, taking classes during every summer and winter and being an absolute perfectionist. It's kind of my time to heal and to look forward to summer which will be awesome.

Chris is finishing preparations for the new beach store/take-out restaurant he's opening in town. I'm so excited that I'll be able to work every day on the beach with my friends and family. I mean come on, my boyfriend is my boss, and I get first preference for hours. I'm so so excited. It's a business I actually care about and want to work hard at making customers happy. This success of this beach store will play a big part in the success of Chris and I as a couple. And, if we do really well, we'll be comfortable financially. I'm just trying to be a big girl right now and suck it up to the fact that Chris isn't ever around because he's working so hard. I'm trying to take care of myself the best that I can because I know he's so stressed. But hopefully by fall I will be ready to rock n' roll with a new semester.

By the way, I'm making plans to shoot a couple new sets. It's been forever! Oh yes, be excited.
