long time no...anything. sorry...
i've never been one of those people who mark my years. or my months or my days or, really even my hours (much). for me, time flies by and i'm lucky (or unlucky) to remember anything that happened in my past. i've never been one to set goals "by this date" or to say that "this year, i will do this". i do not intend to start now.
all i know is that, for the first time, i can look back on a year of my life and ascertain something about it. for me, 2007 was the year
that
almost
...was.
this time last year i had so many expectations. so many plans. now i find myself still expecting and planning many of those same things. i don't know if i really like that or not, but i guess the better thing to ponder is this: am i where i'm supposed to be? i think i'm okay. it's maddening sometimes, but i think it's okay. i'm making progress.
i'm wanting to add more introspective weirdness here, but i can't at the moment. maybe it will came later...
