and you may ask yourself, how did i get here?

just in case it was starting to seem as if i had up and left, let me assert the notion that i am in fact still here. alive and kicking. i've been feeling as if i have no words for what has been going on in my head lately, but that isn't true. i am intimidated by the idea of trying to give words to what has been going on in there lately, but that is obviously not the same as not having the words to give. add to that the pace at which i have been living and you have one big ol' excuse to pretend that this isn't happening. but it is, and i suppose i will eventually come around to expressing it.

let's just hope i haven't had any whiskey when that happens.

actually, for the good of everyone and everything, let's hope i never have any whiskey.

regardless, the holiday which just passed was unexpectedly wonderful; relaxed, filled with good food and drink, and spent in my warm house with people who make the idea of suspending the animation of those moments seem like a very wise idea.

now reality returns, at least for the time being. i find myself mildly frightened, altogether enchanted and not at all sure what is happening. there, that's a start.
