Note: I apologize to those of you who have been trying to reach me to no avail... i am going to California for a week and will likely be unreachable- though you are welcome to try. I do love you all. Special apologies go out to Java and Harrison-- the whole time zone difference is not helpful... but its my turn to try again, please forgive me.
-------------------------------------
- i don't really get the whole "FRIEND" thing on xanga... they must be losing business to myspace... but oh well... que sera sera.
- my grandfather has pneumonia. he is quite old. has already been diagnosed with parkinsons and cancer... evan and i have been planning a road trip to cali over spring break to celebrate in the sun... but it seems the visit may become less than celebratory. it gets harder for me everytime i see them... they are becomming so frail... and i am starting to really understand how short the time is. if you have time, desire, and energy, please say a prayer for my grandparents.
- my cat died this weekend. i went home to see my parents. it was the first time since i was 6 she hasn't been there. she lived for 16 years so that is rather amazing. still... feels ominous.
-not everything is sad. i got to spend friday night with a dear friend whom i have not seen much of for too long. she and her new husband provided company and shelter, and a mini tea party in the morning with my old landlord while the boys all went to a sort of impromptu men's breakfast... i was enriched just to get to see her.
-i am feeling so torn about future plans... and making them. even telling someone what schools i'm applying to carries some weighty finality i avoid with the pronoun game. there are so many things my heart longs for... and i am not yet willing to abandon one dream for another... oh my impatience...
...have i always been this afraid of commitment? ...i feel it now more than ever.

thank you for inviting me to be your friend =)
i don't understand anything about it yet, but i feel special.
richest of grace to you. you are so amazingly beautiful in every way
aww erin i am so sorry about your grandad and you cat. my prayers will certainly be with you all.
I am visiting your lovely country next year.. am going with Chris's family and another family (do you remember Vince, he came to lazer quest with us?) to Florida for 2 weeks. I'm really excited.
Well take care Erin, i wish you all the best of happiness.
i don't get the friend thing either... my future plans are looking interesting right now as well.
not sure. Yeah i would love to come visit you. I have been to America once before, Chris proposed to me there!
I firmly believe your phone hates my phone. Don't know why it won't take the booklist, but my phone seems determined to undermine me! Can you email it to me, or just toss it up as a comment or something? Xiexie Ni =). I love you dear friend. *HUG*
