hear ye, hear ye . . .

for all those virginians and marylanders that i love and miss, this is a pathetic group announcement. i use the word pathetic only because i wish there was time in my days to talk to each of you on a regular basis. so that a message like this one would not be necessary.

but this is what you revert to when you move away. group updates over email, group announcements on a blog, group hang-outs when you go back to visit, conference calls where you catch up on 3 weeks on living in an hour's time. it is the nature of moving. of loving people in one place and at the same time trying to begin loving others in another. of change.

mind you, it's better than nothing. i think sometimes how different things would look were we to have been born in another age . . . another century . . . when communication was nothing of what it is now. when 'posting' something on a 'blog' would have seemed like an outlandish, sci-fi concept. we are blessed by technology . . . when we use it for good (that's a whole other blog topic . . .).

as matt robins would say, i digress . . .

this point of this blog was to let you know:
i'm coming to town. flying in to d.c. on 3 apr 08 at 2235. will be staying in d.c. for one day, two nights. then travelling to salisbury on 05 apr 08. i'll be around until 08 apr 08. please let me know who will be free as i want to cram as much hang out time as possible into those shrot five days.
