let's stay together

hello blogs. i suppose i am back in the blog world. i thought 'we' were 'over' that, but apparently i am still johnny-come-lately and even my seven fish and my frog have their own blog, myspace account, and facebook profile. they just post discreetly, when i am not watching them.
i still live in Davis, but i'm moving; i'm still dating Andrew, but he is in the hills for the summer; i still love books and words, but soon they will be part of my job as an English teacher. big haps - it's odd that i'm going into a profession where i'll be managing over 100 vulnerable, impressionable people daily when i am barely five years older than they are and still in a tender phase of life myself. the real world doesn't wait for you to 'catch up,' but it also doesn't require that of you to keep on spinning. i think i'll take my time.
