Yesterday was my mother's birthday + excuses, excuses, excuses...

So happy birthday, Mommy.

I haven't intentionally neglected this blog. The problem is that I've sort of lost my desire to write. Words are all I have, so when they start to fail me, it's a sign that my head and heart are going through shit - shit that I should probably address, but that wouldn't be like me, would it? Eh. I'll bounce back, I always do. In my final evaluation for my RW1 class, my prof wrote: "[Josephine] demonstrated ... a remarkable dexterity with details. Similarly, in [an assigned] court story about a couple in a custody battle over a son with cerebral palsy, Josie showed a real command of the material and understood how to portray the emotion of the proceedings and not just the legal entanglements played out before the judge." So you'd think I'd be better off, but no.

Some quick updates -

I turned 23 last month.

Lanie came to visit.

Matt became a farmer. Not really, but I ♥ this picture.

Erin gave birth to a baby boy, Odinn.

Kaja and I hung out while we were waiting for his arrival. I fed her. A lot.

Tasha gave birth to Ameiha.

Who then tried to eat me.

That's all. Maybe I'll update again sometime before 2008.
