hi again

I do not know why I stopped writing in my own journal and went on to merely commenting in the journals of others.

I suspect it was a gradual process. the desire to share my life passed with the realization that my opinionated life wasn't quite shareable anymore. maybe it had to do with certain conflicts which were escalating at the time and which I, true to form, withdrew from. maybe it was a function of less time alone and less time online (we've been having cable trouble). or maybe I just successfully managed to quit a bad habit.

successfully up until now, that is.

I think I'll use this post as a recap. of sorts.

memorable moments of the last two months:

• my birthday. Callie's cod, the Settlers, Ultra-Energized Brownies (we ate the last ones yesterday) and The Chamber of Secrets.
  
• working with René in the cold and presenting Maragor's string quartet to Soon-Mi Chung.
  
• getting money I had earned again.
  
• selling cable subscriptions by phone
  
• cutting and baking funny cookies with Callie
  
• watching Callie make xmas gifts
  
• discovering who one of my co-workers was
  
• breakfasts with Maragor
  
• Halloween at the Trumpet
  
• two nachspiels with fun people Callie had stumbled across
  
• solo play sessions with Stephan
  
• getting a DSL connection! finally!
  
• getting consolating emails from old acquaintances
  
• meeting SHS again on his birthday

that's not it, but reviewing this short list makes me feel warm&mushy. =)
