UPDATING

it almost feels weird to be posting again, like it's been so long i've forgotten how to gather my thoughts close and set them down - well, i guess it's usually less ceremoniously, they're more randomly dropped than actually set down by any logical means.

those who know me have no doubt guessed that my life's been shiny and happy ergo the non-blogging state of being.

so what have i been doin? i'm not even sure. in hind sight it seems minimal but suffice it to say that life has been good to me.

i've been dancing 5 nights a week (4 salsa, 1 belly dancing)

i'm only going to the gym once a week now.

my self esteem has been soaring. i'm in great shape, not actually losing any weight but i don't think i've ever looked better. - k - i'm lying. i thought i looked best when i weighed in under 100lbs and everybody thought i was on heroin but this is much healthier.

i've been working - a lot

i'm anxiously waiting for a response on my union application

things with salsa guy (the rippling mass of yum that harlequin romance novels are made of) are gettin on la-di-da

the weather in Vancouver has been gorgeous. it came late this year but it's here. i'm saddened anticipating the end of summer which i know will only come too soon but it's slowed my step and made me appreciate every moment of it that much more

i finished the new Harry Potter last night. OMFG! i found myself pleading with the book for the last 50 pages or so, "please, no...no...no...please no." when i turned the last page and realized there was no more i wept. i wept for the hero and i wept for long wait till the next book.

i'm back to reading the Da Vinci Code and i've started reading Harry Potter and the Philosopher Stone again. i miss reading sooooooo much.

i've said good-bye to some old friends - well i didn't actually get to say it but i've given up hope. i'm sad and will be mourning the loss for a long while coming.

i'm makin new friends, finding new life and reveling in a new joy i never thought possible before.

i am content.

i am happy.

i know who i am.

i know what i'm doing.
