Where does the time go???

It's funny to me that the last posting to this blog was written sometime amidst a North Carolina snowstorm in 2005. My life was so different then... and so much has changed.

Back then, I was in a committed relationship with someone I thought I was going to spend my life with. Now, I'm single, and have been for nearly two years (oh. em. gee.)

Back then, I lived in a two-bedroom house in the mountains of North Carolina that I rented from my parents. Now, I share a townhouse in the middle of Virginia with a roommate and two chihuahuas. And of course, my beloved Nellie.

Back then, I was struggling to find myself. Now... oh, wait. That's still the case.

I've lived in five states. I've held five real jobs. I've adopted two cats (one of which has relocated to what I just call, "The Farm"). I've watched in disbelief as my baby brothers have grown up. I've seen my parents continue to support me no matter how stupid my behavior. I've learned a lot about God.

So, as with everyone else in the world, I'm on the journey. For what, I'm not sure. But I hope to learn, love, laugh and live along the way.
