hello again

well. it's been almost two weeks and a lot has happened; more in a later posting.

in the meantime....

cliche' of the day: it's always darkest just before the dawn.

cliche', yes. but accurate too.

last week was the darkest time i can remember. she went away for almost three whole days in the middle of the week. i was useless. devastated. and when the third day dawned, i knew that all was lost.

and then she called. and since then we've talked. and talked. serious, important, open talks.

and while things still aren't where we'd both like them to be, we're getting there.

even while knowing that there are no guarantees in life... my mood can best be described as "giddy".
