Shit's all sorts of different now.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.

I'm glad Aimee and the clan are home now.

I've posted pictures of Carmarthen, the place I'm staying at here in Wales.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

I'm not sure who I've been keeping in the loop on this, but now that things are settled, I figure it's safe to share.

We've been hoping to buy the family home, which I guess makes us crazy enough to participate in LA real estate, but at least gives us a leg up. Anyway, we made an offer and my siblings accepted it. We've secured a loan. Looks like it's official.

We own our very own DUMP! um, yay?!

I'm off to Germany. I'll be gone until Monday, not completely sure about the internet situation. I'm a little freaked, what with the complete lack of planning I've done for this trip, not knowing the language, not knowing what to see, etc. So I'd appreciate any travel-ma and don't-act-stupid-ma that you feel inclined to send across the ocean. Ta, and bye.

It really doesn't matter. It's just an opinion. Don't worry about it. Not worth the hassle.
