Considering my life is vastly different from how things were left as of my last musing, i figure i can fend off some of the more common questions and make room for the less common ones.

When Last we left our hero, he was in the process of buying a dwelling to inhabit with his
trusty sidekick
and their fearsome canine companion. Things went horribly awry somewhere in mid september and, to make a long and painful story very short, we went our separate ways. Mostly.

For a while i tried to divine a way to keep the whole house venture going. But in the end i realized that w/o the extra income, set of hands, etc… of having Heidi there, i would be constantly treading along the precipice of financial ruin if everything went well.. and hurling myself over it if not. Alas, soon after i gave up the girl, i gave up the house. woe

All of this turned out really well, however, for my friend Dave. His cousin had just moved out to move in with a girl in virginia, and Dave was stuck paying all the rent on a quainl little house just outside the also-quaint village of Rhinebeck. Rhinebeck is a very cute little town just north of the world famous Staatsburg, which i know needs no introduction.

So that’s where i am right now. Still working my day job, doing some side projects, and trying to get my housemate to do his own dishes.

I made my annual pilgrimage to Zhills and had the usual stupid amounts of fun

Heidi and I have managed to remain close and, though we’re dating other people, still be a part of each other’s lives.

I think that’s all the big stuff.

oh yeah.. anyone want a cat?
