welcome back. i fell out of posting about the year 2-6 after returning from mongolia. i'm also bad at keeping in touch with people on a regular basis, so this might help.
a lot of changes since last january 7th: a new job, new state, new home, new $15 eyeglasses.
as my friend robin wrote in the card she sent me, this is my first full year as a "real" adult (the card had bananas on it, so it's pretty authoritative).
it's strange, i very sincerely thought i was never going to find anything i liked doing, that i would spend my life in jobs that i hated, being generally unhappy for roughly 40 hours per week. i don't know why working in a library didn't occur to me until after i was already done with college, but i'm glad to have found it and am so grateful to have the job i do now. it may be far away from most people i know, but it sure feels like the right place for this moment, for this twenty-seventh year.
but i still wish we were all having cake together tonight.
