It wasn’t until we got to Myrtle Beach today and walked out on the beach and hit the water before I realized something. I realized that I really, really miss the ocean. It was a place I got to as a kid every summer, living in NYC, but I haven’t been to an ocean beach in years and years. How could I have forgotten? There’s something sort of sad about that..
I was reminded yesterday that, despite everything that went on in my childhood with the abuse, the lack of self-exteem, the depression, etc. there were actually some happy times.

It’s only been about a…
Hi there, remember me? 🙂 OK so it hasn’t been that long since I posted anything over here, but I can’t help but feel a little like I’ve been neglecting things over here. It’s true, I’ve been working head-down in technology for a while now, and really haven’t had time to put together too many…
