sleep does not come to the teary eyed. I feel so terribly alone... when I'm really not, just separated by an immense distance, and i'm sure you can relate ns. If logic and reasoning didn't prevail i'd probably be out on the road attempting to hitch hike through the blizzard.

Hey Simer

Let's do another hike. Our last one was masked by introductions and unexpectedted interuptions...such as Whiskey Trek 2003...oh man you friggin age liar....

any way...LET'S DO ANOTHER HIKE WUSSIE!!!


P.S. - I say that knowing Matt, he is one tough Mofo hiker. You better be in top condition if you want to spend a day hiking with Simer.

Simer190 - Nowslimmer's right. I feel your pain dude, trust me, it gets easier with time. I'm 31 now, and wasn't able to really control my emotions until I was somewhere in my mid to late 20's. It's hard to brush things off and not feel like an ass. But with wisdom, you'll learn how to do it, and still not truly be an ass. Unfortunately, wisdom only comes with age, so hang in there bro. Things will get better, and a whole lot funner (is that a word?), just enjoy the ride. Easier said than done, right? ;-)

Alrighty, coffee is brewing, and I'm going to spend another exciting weekend not backpacking. I may go kayaking later today, but really need to give my place a massive cleaning. I will definitely get in a run today though. I know you guys are excited about all of that as I am, so your welcome in advance.

Hot tea for me this morning; nothing like waking up with heavy sinus drainage and a very sore throat. I hate it when this happens right before the holidays!

Hi ho, hi ho its off to work I go...

Two meetings (one to begin recruiting an additional person) and a day of taking photomicrographs and literature searching. Or I could go to the library and read. I should also go for a walk during lunch. I love being "off service".

divinity - Great, I'd love to see you there. Leaving Florida next Thursday. Did you see that I'm getting a free week in a fitness place up there? As if I'll have enough energy left for it!!!

MDSHiker - It's better to hold divinity with hugs, rather than handcuffs. Since you're married, please just get her here and I'll give her plenty of hugging. To quote baume 66,

ooooooooohhhhhhhh lllllaaaaa llllaaaaaa !!!!"

divinity -So anxious to respoond, I just spilt a cup of coffee over all the papers at my side here. Well, it will dry.

I don't dare stop on the way to see you. I might never get to Minnesota!!! (Hmmmmm. It might not be all that bad.) But I do have to get up there to bring my baby daughter(20) home from her college in Iowa.

But I do need to do something soon. Roam Around is making me jealous!
