1/3

Dear blog, I am done with my first semester of grad school. Well, after I have my last class today, I will be. I can't believe it. I am 1/3 of the way toward getting my master's degree! It's been a long, hard road, little blog. Thank you for being there for me, even when I wasn't! You're the best. I am really glad I started you. Wow, the delirium is still with me. I was up till 3am working on a story. And I'm sure it all went to the dogs. Haha. It was a story about dog walking. And now it's DONE. DONE DONE DONE. I'm free! I'm sooo excited to go home and see my family and friends and my dear little nephew. I need respite. Thank you, NYU, for kicking my ass. And getting it into shape.

Hello blog

It's been awhile since I've posted. I've been so busy with school, and so tired that I now understand the expression "I can feel it in my bones." I no longer know if I'm depressed or physically tired. Probably both. Good times! I'm just looking forward to having a break, to going home for Christmas and seeing my wonderful family and friends. I need to feel loved for awhile. New York City does not provide this kind of love. It does, however, provide a way of forcing one to be completely alert and aware of all that's around you. And I think I have developed a toughness that I could never get anywhere else. Thank you, Big Apple.
