But if you never try then you'll never know...

Sorry I've been gone for a while. Just when I think things are slowing down I get all busy again.

A big nice thing: I went to a Halloween party with Sam on Friday in Charlottesville, VA and met a cute boy who has played the guitar for 11 years and is studying music and loves Savannah and we talked all night. The party was at a really amazing cabin in the woods, down a long windy road with much foliage and shrubbery on the edges that looked perfect for a haunted trail, and the sky was clear so I got to see the stars. Ah, my beautiful sparkling stars... And I woke up underneath a skylight in the cabin in the woods and saw my trees, like I was sleeping underneath the leaves. And all was green-gold and happy.

The rest of my weekend didn't quite compare to that moment of waking up happiness, but it will do. Things right now seem disjointed and strange sometimes and it really helps to go outside and be back in rural areas so I can remember I'm just a country girl at heart and that doesn't have to change even though I'm in the big city.

I ended up not going to the Rufus Wainwright concert last night because I'm house-sitting with Rachel (who has a fractured foot courtesy the wet Metro escalator steps) for the next two weeks and we had a last minute Halloween party instead, involving Rachel, Roslyn, and me. LoL. We watched A Clockwork Orange, which was really weird and pretty offensive, because none of us had ever seen it. And now I'm okay with not ever seeing it again, honestly. But that's ok...we had some really cute Trick-or-Treaters come for candy so that was entertaining.

I'll be house-sitting for the next couple weeks, actually, so I may not be updating for a little while. Don't be worried. Just give me a call!
