Okay, so first of all, for the three of you who don't find me quite dickish, or rather, lovably capricious, enough to care where I've been for the past several months, I'm not dead. *waves away chorus of dissapointed boos* Au contraire, I've been better than ever. Flying the coop at last on the eve of my college years to move in with an awesome bud will do that for ya.

So now I'm hunkering down waaaay at the south end of North Carolina with my roomate/beau, enjoying freedom, enjoyable conversation, oppurtunities aplenty, and a much welcome sabbatical from this freakfest, as internet access is a library-provided luxury for the time being. Just thought I'd pop back in to share some photos I snapped when we went up to the mountains for a day trip not long ago. Hope you guys are staying cool, writing is in the works. Adios.
