I'm not sure what to write at the moment... but I know I need to force myself to write or else I'll just keep putting it off. So, what comes next will most likely be a bunch of ramblings.
I'm enjoying summer - it's a wonderful time... enjoying the outdoors - the sunshine and cool breeze... The evenings are beautiful. The festivals, the gatherings, the cookouts, the walks with Emma. And a summer with love makes it all so much better. I've dreamed of the day where I would be in love and happy - fantasizing what that would look like with scenes from movies dancing in my head. I've come to see that love isn't what you see in the movies... it's different, but somehow feels so much better. Things may not be perfect, and there may be ruts in the road, but walking through life with someone you can trust makes it all feel easier. I'm having so much fun and learning so much about myself... Nick has blessed my life.
And in five short days we will be on our way to the east coast! I'm so excited to see Boston and New York... to see my pregnant friend Trisha (I can't believe it's been a year Trish! It's a good thing you're moving closer to me so I can spoil that child of yours!)... to go to a Red Sox game... to see Wicked on Broadway (I can't believe we got tickets!)... to spend hours upon hours upon hours in a car with Nick (well, maybe not! just kidding!). This will definately be a good test of our relationship - I suppose that if we can survive this, we can get through pretty much anything.
On another note, I finished my first artist book, but couldn't take a picture of it because I don't have my camera back from the shop... but it turned out okay - not my best work, but I think I'm extremely critical of my own stuff. I did receive my next book, however, and it has me a little perplexed. The title of it is: "N is for Narcolepsy". Um... uh... what? I guess the girl who the book belongs to has narcolepsy so I guess that makes sense for her, but she didn't leave any instructions and I'm a little lost as to what to do with that. I have no frame of reference for narcolepsy... nothing comes to mind that would be worth contributing artistically. At the moment I've hit a wall... but I'll keep thinking and praying... if you have any ideas, let me know.
And that's all for the randomness for now... perhaps one of these days I'll get better at posting regularly. Ciao.

Your first paragraph made me burst into song:
"Love is different than you think, it's never in a song or on a t.v. screen..."
If you haven't sent your artist book on yet, you may use my camera to take a picture of it. Your next assignment seems challenging, but interesting.
I hope you enjoy your trip! THINK OF ME! You should send me a postcard...speaking of which, you still owe me a letter.
By the way, I have your chopsticks. If you come over for some AD after Jazz in June tomorrow, you may have them. ;)
Yeah!! I am excited for you about Nick. I snuck in some glances to watch you interact at your place the other night. He is so fun and very excited and sweet toward you. I hope your adventure doesn't go by too fast.
Yeah for wicked! That is what I would want to see.
If you still have that artist list from Amber, the girls e-mail should be on there. I keep wondering if she wanted to have everyone put a letter and something about their lives or if she truly wanted it to all be about narcolepsy. It seems whoever reponded first sets some kind of tone for the books. My Grace one is coming along quite well - in my head!
I can't believe Trish is pregnant, wow!
Anyway this is trailing on but I enjoyed your post. I agree that summer is lovely.
Hey girl, I hope your trip was fabulous! I hope you had some good talks and some laughable memories. Maybe you can put N is for Nick. This is your allotted window of opportunity to gush and cheese it up.
