The State of Things

Well, I just got back from Nicaragua on Wednesday evening. It was a life altering experience in more ways than one (emotionally, spiritually, intellectually, socially, and to some extent physically). I must say though, I have returned from this trip with more questions than answers and I have had a lot to process in the last few days. Unfortunately, California didn't stop moving while I was gone and I have massive amounts of catching up to do with school and everything else. I got a little bit of therapy on the flight home by writing a song. By the way, the stranger next to me on the flight seemed to find the process quite interesting. She was looking over my shoulder the whole time.  I finished on Friday morning and immediately posted it to youtube. Unfortunately, I think the person/people that need to see it haven't seen it. And... maybe that's for the best. I probably said too much anyway. 

That's a brief update on the state of things, and I really don't have a lot of time to do creative writing right now even though it might be detrimental to my health to not do so. I'll let the stories marinate for a while and hopefully a few things will work themselves out while I'm busy busy. 

P.S. There have been numerous "so much better in my head moments the past few weeks." I really did title this page aptly.
