Just spent more hours in transit than i'd like to recall to go see max and co down in maryland. Public transportation is SO inefficient. It took me something like seven hours to get from Gaithersburg, Md. to Aberdeen, NJ. (ooh, i put information online. scandalous.) I'm exhausted from nonaction, somehow, but content that I went. I feel oddly committed, though I don't know why. I suppose this means that he'll have to come see where I live, as well, which is kind of eeptastic. Sounds serious. No worries, though, I still have faith that he's lame and will wimp out on me.

We had this weird conversation about who would get to keep which friends if we were to break up. He seems to think he has dibs on em all - no fair! But so it goes. Our solution was to simply stay together (for the kids, you see.) Sounds like a plan.

Odd, too, to be retracing steps - it's so willa-reunion territory. The bus ride kept flashing me back to Bara's mom and our crazy car ride of doom (what? we're here again? but we were here two hours ago! no, don't close your eyes, you're driving!), and I passed (ok, ran, i was running late) by the spot in union station where we held our protest (free monaco!). Makes me think that the world is finite, ultimately, although I know that's not true.

Half of me just wants to start journeying, see more, stop treading the same paths. The other half wants me to keep the secrets of the universe secrets, and unlock them slowly. Ahh, conflict.

Meh, tired. It's going to be a ridiculously crazy next two weeks or so - crunch time for me starts now. Shackles will be removed... sometime before pesach, I figure? And then it's finals again. Whee.
