Yes, it has been a long time since I last posted, and I know that a successful blog requires regular updating, but I appeal to your gentler nature, dear reader (all three of you, my mother included), for life has been a hot mess in 2010.

1. We are trying to sell a house. In the market? Please say yes... I am on the verge of begging, here.

Said house:

2. We have a new puppy. He eats everything in sight and has roughly 6500 body parts moving at any given fraction of time.

Said puppy:

(That glow in his eye is the eternal fire of the devil.)

3. I am at a Level 3 Addiction relating to the Outlander series and spend my free time reading any one of seven books of 1000 pages, each.

4. I have medical issues. I like to call them the "Doctors' Full Employment Act of 2010."

Don't worry - no pictures. Trust me when I tell you that you don't wanna see... although I could *maybe* get you a video, if you pay me enough.

5. I am also addicted to Facebook, which is every lazy narcissist's dream.

6. And honestly, a big part of me just wanted to keep my note to Cosmo out in the universe, unobstructed, a little longer. I still miss him every single day.

So nyeah, that about covers it, for now. I will write more... perhaps about the ghost in our house, the astounding increase in concentration of asshat drivers on the streets of Portland, all of the ridiculous house projects I want to work on, my new volunteerism efforts, my failed attempt at redemption, and blah blah blah. Tomorrow. Or the day after.

xoxo,
