Let's fix this! You're right, really. It's all kinda like a complicated break up with Swat, where we want to be friends, but needed to give each other some space, so we could come back and renegotiate the terms of our friendship, figure out how we can now interact. And I feel like I've just made a chunk of progress on that. Hopeless indeed, but I’m not much better. Let’s fix this!

I found it profounding disconcerting when I visited and knew lots of people but was no longer actually a participant in any of the things they were doing. I could bother them on the beach, but had no reading to actually go attend to, could hang out at an event but didn't have classes to relate it back to, that sort of thing. In other news, I just discovered this blog! I know I'm entirely hopeless about keeping in touch, but it is nice to "hear" from you again!

Do you work on campus? I'd like to say hello next time I'm in the area. You're only an hour and a half from where I live now, I have easy access to a hybrid car, and you're extremely close to some friends I'd like to visit soon. --Blake. Kit,
