Well, it's been almost 2 months...

... and lots of things have happened, but I have not written. I could say that it is because I have been busy, but that would not be entirely true. I have been busy, but not so busy I haven't had time to waste at the computer.

Right now I am simultaneously talking to an old high school friend on AIM. Whenever I talk to a friend I haven't seen in awhile, she always asks what I am doing these days, and I usually find that question uncomfortable, for though I am always busy, I can usually find nothing to say that doesn't sound trivial.

That is one of the reasons I am reluctant to write on my blog. I do a lot of things in a day, but none of them seem important enough to chronicle. However, as I sit here trying to tell my friend how I spend my time, I realize that for most people, doing lots of little things is what life is all about. Every achievement, small or great, is a collection of little tasks performed faithfully, or performed poorly.

On a less philosophical note, we are spending the weekend at a nice little house in the woods. It should be a fun mini-vacation.
