The community of blogging definitely has a different look and feel now that I’m back in Africa. Things like not having internet for five days really make it hard to retain any semblance of connectedness. It’s not impossible. It’s just not as easy as before.
I miss you guys.

wow- your hairs are still really short. It’s still taking me by surprise even though it’s been months. Hopefully I’ll see it in person before too long… and the rest of you as well.:O We should try and connect before turkey-day. I hasten to say it, but possibly via cell phone?!?! ;) miss you.

Love you, Alece!

annie — my complexion?! oh girl, you should see me live and in person. it would solve the envy issue in a second.
tam — meg ryan lips? ummm… i don’t see it. but thanks!
christen — yes yes yes! sorry i’ve been so out of touch. especially when we can communicate via phone. sheesh.
the pout was too hard to resist!
yes – i agree – community despite miles and oceans and internet failings and busy lives is a difficult thing indeed.
I feel you kitten… I totally feel you…
Hi.
Love you and your pouty no-wi-fi self.
:(
You know, you look like you’re about 16 years old in this picture.
You’re really cute!
Have a great weekend and blessed Sunday!
16!?!?! that would be AMAZING.
It’s totally weird, even though we haven’t had internet since we got here (today is the first day up) I know that I will have more time to connect with my blog friends because living in my families basement and all of the speaking engagements and friends and meetings and and and it was like I had no time to breath in the States. No, silly, I am not complaining…but here, my life makes sense and I have allotted computer time where when I was there, it was like face time with my peeps was more important. And, it should be.
Maybe I need to make more friends on this side of the Ocean.
Cricket, cricket. Oh well…back to blogging.
i’m on this side of the ocean. can we be friends?
