Thoughtful Absence

Lake Merritt
It is interesting because I actually have written/ started quite a few blog posts over the past month but they all seemed like the ramblings of my subconscious and more journal entries than thoughts for public knowledge ;-).  I have not come to any great epiphanies during this absence but have spent lots of time with various friends including an incredible trip to the bay area this past weekend.  My friend Madelein lives in Lake Merritt, Oakland and the incredible people, culture, and beauty tucked into this small little part of the bay made me even more determined to move up there in the future (dreams anyways). I flew up on Thursday night and walked Madelein to work on Friday along the lake and into the Oakland metropolis.  I scooted my butt home to put in a full 8 hours for my own work and then went into SF for dinner and drinks with an old friend from Cal.  Saturday was a blur of caffeinated shopping, eating and cooking amazing food (spanakopita) with Dan and KK.  Sunday was more food and board games with other friends.  It was a whirlwind weekend that has left me tired, happy, but already missing my friends up North.  Another trip is definitely on the books soon!

I promise to start writing again (when I actually have something to write about).  Some things may be changing/ added/ deleted from my life so stay tuned! Intrigued? ;-)
