Hi.

I know, I know. It's been forever - or, several months since my last post. After three years of living in the dark ages, we got home internet.  We used to just glom off of free networks in our building or neighborhood. But now, we've got regular, reliable internet and I'm glad to be back on the blog.

I'm reading a book about fiction writing right now, and it is absolutely revolutionizing my life. For the first time in a long time, my passion for writing and being a writer (one day) has come into the forefront of my mind. Normally, I'm just too busy for anything but working, sleeping, eating, and Starbucks. (Yes, I have kept my priorities in line, Starbucks is still on the list.) My ultimate dream is still to be a published fiction writer. And as skeptical as I am about the internet and its implications on books, music, etc., I am realizing that I can use this small platform as a way to get my writing read, even if only by family and friends. So, I won't promise it, because my track record on here isn't exactly stellar, but I am hoping to share some of my writing with you. So, stay tuned.

In the meantime, just an update on us...we are happily living year-to-year, seeing what life holds for us and being open to the future. We still love New York, with all its glories and expenses, but if Spring doesn't come here soon, we will be needing a therapist.
