I finally found my way to your blog and I really enjoyed what I read. You should consider adding a more current installment :) That is such a kyle sort of response ;)

I like it. However, your comment about what you think I think about what you think (that's a lot of thinking!) isn't quite fair. It's funny, and makes a good transition, so that's fine. But taking a step back, I hope you think I know you better than that... Interesting perspective on waiting. I like it.

Eugene Peterson says that good writing opens your eyes to what has always been there, so that you see it in a new way, more deeply. I've been starting to think that good writers are thus good at being able to notice little details and unique particularities, the small ironies of situations and the subtle movements that betray the depths of people. And they write about those things in such a way that they somehow connect in a profound way to larger emotions and themes. Anyways, I think this is that kind of description. You write about the details of your new apartment in a way that connects to that whole spectrum of feelings that come along with beginning a new chapter in life; dreams of adventure, knowing that reality doesn't quite live up to these dreams we have, and finding the real adventure to be different but nevertheless still exciting in its own way. Ack, this all sounds so academic, so overly wordy. But I am quite serious. Its just hard to convey thoughts sometimes, and I want to convey them vividly, so I use lots of words. Write more. =) I like this a lot- you write very descriptively.
