After a rather long hiatus, I would like to say: I'm back. :) Back in the U.S., back on Tumblr, back to being, well, me.

Missed you all.

Kickass Kid of the Day: As 9-year-old Josef Miles and his mother walked around Kansas’ Washburn University campus last weekend, he noticed a group of Westboro Baptist Church members picketing as people headed to graduation ceremonies.

Josef asked mom if he could create his own sign, and promptly staged a one-man protest. His sign, written in pencil on a tiny sketchpad, read simply, “God Hates No One.”

Sometimes I have the strangest feeling about you. Especially when you are near me as you are now. It feels as though I had a string tied here under my left rib where my heart is, tightly knotted to you in a similar fashion. And when you go to Ireland, with all that distance between us, I am afraid that this cord will be snapped, and I shall bleed inwardly.

How far along am I?

JUST starting to outline.

Everyone in my program has been posting for the last 10 days on our Facebook group page about all the work they're doing.

Most of them are done right now.

Me? Not so much.

Don't ever tell anybody anything. If you do, you start missing everybody.

Also at tonight's pub quiz was a team called: Better late than never. (They walked in 10 minutes late.) All I could think was:

1. Lame name.

2. It should have been "Better late than pregnant."

On a side--but related--note: Quizmaster Joe found our name offensive enough that he wouldn't read it aloud.

Oh, for s*&t's sake.
