Book of faces.

I've become a Facebook addict. Well, not addict really. I mean, I can't stand all those little apps. At first it was fun, but then it became overwhelming and I just kinda erased almost all of them. It seems like I get a bunch of app-related requests every day and it pains me to click ignore, so I end up just letting them sit there.

Yesterday, I did the email check thing and discovered that a long lost friend had signed up! Rob. The famous Rob. The Rob that occupies such a significant portion of my personal timeline that my life is divided into BR and AR (Before Rob and... you get the point).

His profile pic is that of one of the most adorable baby pictures I've ever seen. Apparently he got married a couple of years ago and his son is now 8 months old.
We chatted in Facebook chat for a while. He's happy. He loves being married, he lives in astonished amazement at the little person that has made him a dad, and he enjoys his job. It's tough to describe how I feel about this. I'm not a religious person, but I imagine this is what it feels like when someone's prayers are answered.
I love Rob. He is one of the most kind, funny, dear, dear people that exist on this planet. In fact, I think in one of my previous posts on this blog I discussed how I felt about him and why I broke up with him. It's a long story; I won't rehash.
Suffice it to say that the conversation I had with him yesterday has made me happy too, down to my very soul. I wish him nothing but good things, just as I always have.

Jenna Bo Benna

I haven't gone back to WoW at all, but neither have I felt much inclined to post here. There are things I'd love to write down and save just for the sake of journaling, but there are so few things I want to share with the world - if you know what I mean. I guess that frustration has just led me to sort of abandon my little blog here.

The email I got from blogger alerting me to Jenna's recent comment brought me back. Jenna! I got your Xmas card but lost it before I had a chance to respond! Email me or something. I miss you.

So not much has changed in the months since I've written here. I finished the Fall semester with good grades and have since started a Spring semester, which of course I feel like I'm failing. I always feel like I'm failing. This is good though because history has shown that when I do not feel like I'm failing, I actually fail.
