Hey-- thanks to everyone who replied to my last blog post. I spent a good chunk of the weekend with Lance and Christine down at the Commons at the Italian Festival (third-generation 100% Italian, here!) Met up with a couple of cool people, had a lot of fun with the live music and the parades. This always marks the end of summer, and it always kid of makes me sad...
Anyway, I've not been around the last few days because of the Festival, and also because I've been looking for a second job -- and I may not be around much in the coming days because school is back in session come Tuesday, which means I'm back to work.
Things are going well so far, and I attribute part of that to having found this site -- being able to read about and share experiences common to the SA crowd has been great. Being able to come here and be ecstatic about IMing someone, and having people give me a genuine congratulations, or having people actually sympathize when I say I "just can't" pick up the phone has been huge.
I'm not leaving the site, but if I'm not around for a while/don't get back to you for a while, that's why :) Those of you going back to school/back at school as well, have a great beginning-of-the-year; I'll be sure to let you all know how the first wek goes.
Ja ne, people.
