Hey world....
Like...woah.
There are still a bunch of you who have me friended. I take this to mean that either you are very bad at pruning your flists or you are better friends than I deserve.
Anyway, I don't know if I'll be coming back to LJ any time soon...I have this weird guilt thing going on where the longer I stay away, the more guilty I feel for being gone, and it just starts seeming easier to not even visit. Which is stupid, I know. Sorry everybody :(
But I just wanted to say "hi" to everyone. I miss LJ still sometimes...it and you all were a really big part of my life.
Some updates:
1) Yes, I'm still alive for real (I'm not just elizabuffy's imaginary friend, though she is still very much my best friend *snuggle* and gives me occasional updates on the LJ world)
2) I'm no longer in Seattle. I graduated with my Masters and got a job down in the southwest US. Of course I will honestly say it's a job I can't talk much about (at least not on anything so public as a blog).
3) I love that job. It's so cool! Way better than I expected to be able to get this early in my career. And yeah, I do sometimes get to play with robots like I always wanted to :)
4) I got a boyfriend. A very nice one who makes me smile (but who left me alone tonight while he goes off to eat sushi with his brother). Anyway, he's cute and a nice cuddler, even if he and his family have a strange affection for raw fish.
5) I got my first apartment without roommates and have lived in it almost a year now. Yes, I had some good roommates, but it's so nice to have a place all my own. It always sucked that all I had of my own was a single room in addition to access to some common areas. Now it's all mine. Bedrooms? Mine. Bathroom? Mine. Kitchen? Mine. Living room Mine, mine, mine! *bwah ha ha ha!* I can decorate them any way I want and walk around naked and no one cares...and also (1) I can leave my stuff anywhere with out bugging anyone and (2) no one else is leaving their crap around to bug me.
6) My mouse is an elderly mouse, but he's still alive and doing well. Cute little Dante *smile*
7) I did finally get my phoenix tattoo. It's on my hip and very pretty.
So that's the brief on me...now, what about all of you? I've missed so much...but what's going on in your lives?
