a new era... of sorts
after spending an embarrassingly long amount of time manipulating the html template... i reached the 'good enough' point. and called it 'good.' ... and, i really am glad that Our Creator didn't have a similar method.
anyway. here i am. and here you are, and having come to terms with the reality that except in rare delightful circumstances (like weddings or conincidental geographic proximity) ...this...e-world will have to do
so. here we go again. if you're reading this and upon noticing yourself not listed among the 'noble minds'... drop me an email... curse at me... you know, whatever.
so basically. where i have been? houghton graduation -> canada -> kenya -> sarasota florida -> recieving the gift of sight -> fort myers -> south india -> sarasota again (where i was attempting to understand the upper middle class mind-set) .... but then Heidi (who graduated with us) called and invited me to come live in her parents house with her in hawaii... and being at a loss for ay reason why not... $310 later and I was moving back to the right ocean (nothing personal against the atlantic) ... so after staying in LA/SanDiego/Orange County for a bit... I became an enthusiastic particpant on aloha airlines flight 346 (i'm completely making up the flight number, i have no idea what it was)
flying over the pacific resulted in increasing amounts of joy... joy no longer suppressed because everyone else on the plane was going to hawaii too... and though they may have thought my delighted squeals a bit odd, they were not jealous.
all that energy must have worn me out because i short nap ensued. ...when i awakened the aroma of fresh chocolate chip cookies filled the cabin and soon delivered to my rumbling stomach along with a glass of cold milk. aloha airlines was getting lots of brownie points.... in fact, i'm now remembering that i think i wrote a song about it... a chart-topper no doubt.
as we landed... glimpses of hawai'i appeared through the clouds:

And this, dear friends is where the next few chapters of life will unfold.
