My parents will be closing a home this week, so mom has requested that I come back to Birmingham sooner than later. So, I should be back in Bham by June 4 or 5. Anywhooo.... the weather is still April-like in Connecticut. Its been sunny all day today. We actually had a couple of days of sunshine last week. But, the occasionally thunderstorm tends to show up every other day. So, despite the sun today the high today was maybe 65 degrees. UGH!!! Can't wait to be home, and certainly can't wait to be living in SUNNY CALI-FOR-NI-YAY!!
I've been thinkin a lot about moving around and experiencing new places and how exciting it is for me. But, honestly my life as a pseudo-loner has been pretty dim at times. I started thinking about all the folks I would consider friends and realized that none of them are my absolute best friends. (no offense if you consider me one). But, seriously, I am sort of the transient buddy of several people, and while that's not altogether bad. Its really not so fun when I am not feeling so well and need to call someone who knows everything thats going on with me. (I guess God and my mom would qualify, but you get the point). The last time I felt this way was exactly 2 years ago. I was about to leave for Thailand, and began to realize that, after two months, I would have to say goodbye to all my wonderful CCP teammates and funny Thai people and begin yet another journey to New England for grad school. (I still laugh and cry when I think of the cheesy Thai music that made Lyndsey cry and hug me all the way in the cab in Bangkok...LOL) Why do I keep doing this to myself?!?!
Oh well, the contract has been signed and there is too much sunshine in California for me to dwell on the sad things!!

EXACTLY!
call me up when you hit the Ham David. Im in a different apartment, as of last night at 1am. Kind of a blitz move out. I'd been planning on moving just ended up doing it all at once.
Anyway call me we'll go hang out and catch up. I'll be your Birmingham transient buddy for a few days.
Seriously I want to catch up so give me a call when you get here.
Call me, too. I've missed my favorite black man! Can't wait to catch up ...
you could call me. but i'll be in thailand. oh whose bald head will i hold if i get sad in a cab. all the boys on my team have hair!
Richard could shave his (and I'm sure he would) but that would be a little sketchy I guess.
Let me know David too, because I should be able to be in the bham on the 4 and 5 tentatively. i do consider you a close friend. talk to you soon brother
