Busy as hell. Suffice it to say that FALCON has picked up. I have also been writing a lot, which has been shear joy.
Since everyone else was commenting about relationships, I thought I would:
It has been two years since I've been in any serious relationship, really two and a half. With the exception of some random cuddliness, that's it.
The strange thing is, I really don't mind. In fact, I'm pretty happy.
My response when people ask me is "I read The Dream of the Red Chamber and awoke to Love's Folly." Which is funny, but somewhat true. I reccommend the book to, well, anyone, but especially to my friends who are depressed about their love lives.
But I think I've finally just gotten the hormones that took me over 8 years ago under moderate control, and some of the emotional holes from the abuse have been filled. This is not to say that I've become asexual (tell that to the girl I was flirting with on the bus this morning.) I just don't need to define myself with sexual relationships.
Of course, next year, I'll be in China, where the women apparently throw themselves on American men. We'll see how long I hold out under the pressure of a racial fetish.
Yecch.

You just gave the Everlasting Gobstopper back to Mr. Wonka, and won the prize. Congratulations.
