ooo excitement

oh life.
so i was headed out to oregon around a month ago... stopped in st louis to check out the arch. we also ended up checking out the AWESOME St Louis City Museum It was amazing. Truly a great experience to go there. You remember those places or experiences you had when you were a child that you were able to return to as an adult only to find they lacked any of the luster they had before? Well...this place was lacking in nothing....a place where an adult returns to childhood and can dream again...anyways...i had a lot of fun. it was one of the best days of my life....and then when we returned back to city parking where our cars were supposedly waiting in the paid-for-parking-spots...we found quite the surprise. my friend's car was broken into and my car (and all life possessions) were altogether gone. this was only the beginning of a tail chasing tangle of job searches, identity thefts, insurance policies, and country crossing attempts. i spent a few weeks in oregon just hanging with some family and after 3 1/2 weeks of it my car was found in st louis!! i traveled back to check her out only to find her in precisely the same condition i had left her...minus a working lock on the driver's side door and numerous valuable possessions. i couldn't believe my luck!!!! i kissed her steering wheel and drove her home! since then i checked back with my old job and found there was still a position available with better hours and more pay so i hopped on it. although my dream was to hit the west coast, i suppose a few more months of the bluegrass won't hurt me... life. so incredibly unexpected and pleasant. i've really enjoyed all the excitement, but wouldn't mind some stability for a little while. maybe i can hit haiti up during the week a couple times this summer...spread some love.

maybe i'll wait for the hectic to quiet down a bit..
