icourtland!

been a long time, i know. just has been a whole lot of the day-to-day going on without a lot of excitement.

the 4th of July was just a day – one with a few “booms” off in the distance. we did make it up to Alamo Square to see some of the Embarcadero fireworks. they were pretty and all, but i can not help but wonder what they were like down at Fisherman’s Wharf, or on the other side of the little water and the big bridge. maybe next year…

been working but making effort to stay low-stressed. seems to be working, but seems weird as well. i just kind of give up and give in, do what i need to do, but stop letting it make me crazy. reading a lot, going to the library a lot and generally hanging out instead of sitting in front of this screen trying to force something to happen. we will see how it goes.

Shelley pointed out to me today that later in the summer she and i will have a 25th anniversary of our friendship. i can not believe that that much time has gone by. i would really love for her to be out here, it would be pretty great. i think i need to find a way to get here out here for a week or so of vacation, i think that would be good for her and i would love to have her here for a little while.

i loves that girl, ya know…
