I am not sure why I’ve not been writing lately. Sometimes it seems as if I just go into hibernation from the net from people as a way to refuel and energize myself for the upcoming months.

I’ve been good, I am adjusting to the new pad to the new life and slowly making my way out and about.

My relationship with my father is definitely different than it has been in the past. I’m not sure how to explain it. I’ve been out of the house before. I spent two years living in Athens and the relationship kept the same basic structure. Now that I’ve moved out of the house we converse more, it’s more cordial with each other. The tension that I felt when living at home is gone.

Work has been work, the vacation freeze is up in November and I already have my ticket to fly out to LA and then up to San Fran for ten days. It will be a much needed vacation and a chance for me to see some people I’ve not seen in a while.

This is your notice: Gray, Des, Kelsey and Steph…. I’m coming, prepare yourselves kids!

I’ll also get to see San Fran for the fist time and hang out with Mikey for a bit.

I’m down to the single digits with school, and that’s an amazing feeling.

In January I start the MBA program and will be a full fledged Graduate student.

I’ve been running and spinning at the gym and I’ve really begun to like both of them. I’ve not really ran since the 5k back in April or May so I’ve been slowly working my way back into running. The great thing is that the loop where I live is approximately 1.7 miles. I know once I can run that twice I’m in better shape than I was during the 5k.

Well… it’s time for bed.

But, here’s a pic of me out and about with some coworkers.

And no, the cigar thing will not be a recurrent trend in my life.
