the ties that bind.

it's nice to know that some things, even after 15 years, never change. we're both different, but our relationship remains the same. it gives me that warm, fuzzy feeling people are always talking about.

not very talkative recently. holding my own, looking forward to my vacation. it can't come soon enough.
