That last entry was a huge relief to write out. Things have gotten better. Ryan bought a car, which puts us slightly further into debt, but it's a step in the right direction. It's enough for now and we'll gain some capital in the meantime. He's got a way to get to where he needs to go. It's pretty awesome and I was fortunate enough to use the new car for a few days instead of an ancient station wagon. I mean, it has air conditioning and functioning windows and a radio and everything. Lowered expectations and frivolity aside, it really is fantastic.

Helmut (Volkswagen, so of course the name is German) is a tangible indicator that we're no longer stagnant. So is the acceptance letter I received yesterday. It was a foregone conclusion, but nonetheless, holding the thick envelope in my hand for a moment before opening it made it real.

As long as we're moving forward.

Oh, remember the rings we're looking at getting? They have new colors, which is awesome. I can't find a picture of the combination I want, so it's this design:


With this color:
