  I just sat down and evaluated things for a few minutes. Here's what I'm thinking: I am absolutely stunned at where I am right now. Six months ago, if anyone had described this to me, I would have called them a nutjob. Or a flanksucker. I am very much enjoying watching your relationship unfold. As far as vicarious living goes, you guys are great!!
I am even more enjoying watching my own relationship unfold. But it'd be pretty messed up if I didn't. I'm approaching the point where I'm ready to get serious about working out and stuff. I think this is a good thing. I just wish salad were cheaper. I finally feel like I know myself again. I'm glad. I missed me. I'm happy. I was so scared before that I would never be happy, and now I am. If I believed in God, I would be grateful.
Hell, I'm grateful anyway. I have met some neat people lately, and made some very good friends. Thanks. I would much like to see any and all of those friends in Chicago some day fairly soon. I don't get enough visitors (read: any), and I gotta show off the place to somebody ! Okay, that's all for now. Carry on.
