It's been an interesting year for me so far. It started out pretty rough. I apologize for not commenting/posting for a while. Some intense tragedies hit both mine and K's families, so we spent the first couple of months dealing with that. I really didn't feel up to interacting with other people, even online. I would think I was doing better and start commenting, and then I'd get into a funk again and stop. It took a lot of work, but things started to look up for us by the time February hit.
We had a nice, quiet Valentine's Day. We spent part of the day goofing around on the RIFT beta and then went out to a nice dinner for two and a lovely walk. I spent the next day with my sister, loafing around the mall and driving around singing songs that were popular when we were in high school.
Have you ever had a moment where you realized that you would be fine? Where you just loved everyone, even the woman who cut in front of you at the check-out line? Where it just felt good to be alive and with the ones you love? That's how I felt when we were on our way. That's when I knew that everything was going to improve. I know it sounds corny. Still, I hope I remember how I felt then for the rest of my life.
And things have improved, slowly but steadily. K has started getting job offers again. A close friend of mine finally recovered from the illness she has had since June. Friends whom I haven't spoken to for almost a year started talking to me again. The economy is improving. Of course there are still problem, some of them major, but life as a whole seems to be turning around.
That ended up longer than I meant! Oh well. I'll try to get back to those I owe comments to later today. I might also post about the game I'm playing right now, if anyone is interested. :)
