I've been busy making lots of jewelry for the web page! I am also working on finding hosting for www.how-lovely.com, and learning how to photograph my items properly. If anybody out there knows about lighting, and places where I can find supplies for such an endeavor, please drop me a line.

I have also been spending time creating a profile at Friendster, and getting back in touch with people I haven't talked to in ages.

It's a strange place I'm in right now. I very much feel like I am pulling myself in too many directions, and not getting any closer to a single one. I am so goal-oriented that having a wide expanse of space, as opposed to a little tube with a bit of cheese at the end, is disorienting to me.

Carol, if you're reading, I miss you a lot. I'm coming back, I promise. Maybe not forever, but for a little while.
