every so often i wander back here in the hopes that someone else has as well. today i opened to page to find a new entry by Shaina dated September 28 of this year! what excitement! but then, as i went to comment after Adam, i noticed his comment was made on March 13? so strange. needless to say, something, somewhere cause a clock to shift.
nevertheless, i miss this place.
sense of place has been something i've been thinking a lot about recently. i'm in-a-sense homeless at the moment, waiting for my apartment to be ready. i sleep on couches and borrowed beds, live out of boxes, bags, and a suitcase. i find myself longing for my own space, somewhere to arrange, decorate, inhabit, claim as my own. and i also find that without that basic need fulfilled, everything else about me feels scattered.
it's a funny place to be in. especially with school underway. it doesn't even feel like it's begun, and yet october is 1/4 done.
anyway, i hope i'm not the only one who peeks in on this little space of ours. i've got some new work i'll put up at some point. or maybe i will just write something altogether new, just for here.
see you around.

You are not the only one who peeks in on here. Thanks for writing these things, there is something special about writing thoughts and feelings in a space where there is no cause for fear, and other people can look into your life, even though they don't know you.
ah, graeme! i've peeked in here a couple times since march 5th--the date my computer still says i posted that old post?--almost even intended to leave a line or two to shake things up...but realized i'd forgotten my username/password...and then realized i didn't have anything worth saying anyways...in any case, i feel ya on the perpetual vagrant scene. i moved into this apartment may 1st. i finally unpacked last week. it was a rough summer. but..i think it's finally time to inhabit something. how's yours coming along? i hope to see a post or two from you soon! it's late..but maybe i can scrounge something up here...we'll see!
p.s. hey jumo! i always think it's cool that you come by here...you seem familiar in that you're friends with a random sampling of my friends...so i think it's neat that you stop in to read our words :)
