too long

it seems like forever since i had the time to sit down and write...time is a relative thing.  i remember being a kid and it seemed like the days til christmas took forever and the summer lasted five months long...now it seems like i can blink and a couple months have gone by...happily i report that i am half way done with grad school...i have dropped almost thirty pounds...my job is swimming along and 2012 is speeding its way here....crazy...i cannot believe that 2011 is almost gone and i am headed full-steam into my 40's (suck)
