Here I Am

This blog has been on my mind lately, although I have still been noticeably absent. I am currently far-ish from home at the wedding of two friends and was reminded, in a not-so-subtle way, that I have let way too much time pass between postings. So, Ashley this one is for you! (Ashely, come back soon for the list of ridiculous things C and I came up with on our drive here that we were going to miss your wedding for. Need a hint? "We are sorry, Jim and Ashley, we were going to come to your wedding, but then we became involved in Naval Support Activities. We're sure you understand.")

I need to back into writing again, for many reasons, so I am making it a priority to come back to my blogging home. While I sit here in a hotel lobby, drinking coffee and waiting for a sleeping friend, I realize that writing is very often how I have been able to work through things in my life and that recently there have been too many things that I really do need to address, both in my mind and out in the world. Let your blog-reading friends know...here I am!
