Meme O'licious
That's been me lately. A TON of rather big life things have transpired since I last posted in February. Needless to say, I've been busy changing jobs, directing a new show (sort of), travelling and dealing with the slow dissalution of my relationship. I'm in a state of mind now where I feel peace with everything that has happened, although my new job is opening my eyes to a lot of things and forcing me to re-examine myself and my clinical approach to social work related issues. More will come on that later. For now, just a fun meme to get me back in the blogging groove. Thanks to lovegreendog at blogger.com for this one.
