I Woke Up On The Longest Night of the Year

"So, Stars, hide your fires. These here are my desires, and I will give them up to you this time around. And so, I'll be found with my stake stuck in this ground, marking the territory of this newly impassioned soul. Hide your fires." -- Mumford and Sons

After a number of months of complete lack of energy or motivation, I've suddenly come alive again. The structure of my life is still not quite ideal, but there's suddenly a swirl of activity and energy.

Since last I wrote: I got my master's, I wrote a novel, I dyed my hair red, and I figured out a few things I want out of life (including, but not limited to what I want in a man.)

Much to report, much to do. Ah, so much to do. :-)

Am I really back this time? Out of another cocoon? Butterfly time again? I hope so!
