My unforeseen four-month dip from life has brought forth all sorts of never expected epiphanies. For example, I've been thinking a lot about what's gotten me to exactly here. I went from a decade in Australia to 36-months state-side to this, essentially - now. Australia is roughly the same size as the continental U.S. And there are 23 million people there, just about. In the States, there's 319 million humans - approximately. Sharing my life...
In between about being on about moving, I've had a sad feeling in me about someone I used to know. I've mentioned before how I love Nicki. After packing all of my belongings into the back of an Isuzu earlier, I had the first chance to hear her new album. My favorite track: The crying game.

I guess I should say three siblings, considering how I had to...

I'm edgy and excited over where I'll end up when the next job arrives. Also, I think about my book until it keeps me up at night. The environment around me remains stunning. I've experienced autumn at least three times, traveling up and down the north-east...
