sooooooooo flipping eloquent!

i hope it's just a combination of things these days---tiredness, lots of stuff to think/pray about, not enough time for this thinking and praying, being busy in general, etc...
...but, whatever it is, i've had some difficulty speaking the past few days. real verbal klutz. can't get a sentence out straight, keep stumbling over words--and, if that's not enough, i don't even know what words i'm stumbling over! can't answer a question straight, can't decide how to express what's heaviest on my heart right now.

do i even know what's heaviest on my heart right now?

you'd think that after so many years of being me, i'd have my communication styles figured out by now.

so, just keep trying. pry, drag it out of me, i'll call you journal.

and, be patient...i'll come around...i hope!




meanwhile, i have this MASSIVE craving to be in europe right now. drinking a pint in a little english pub...walking down the champs elysees towards my favourite shops in paris, hanging out at arthur's seat out in edinburgh...oooohhh and listening to westminster abbey's evensong choir... i've got the travel bug bad!
i really want to go back there.
and, i miss you brine!

miss you too.
I have been having the EXACT SAME cravings. We had coffee after dinner the other day, like your family does, and then I got all nostalgic about our big trip. We'll just have to do it again. Italy next?
Someday, if we're millionaires, we'll go every fall. :)

ooooh man. i would LOVE that. actually i was also craving the weirdness of the cheese we had in london. not the baby bells (is that what we called them?) but the stuff we put on our bagels every day. it had a distinctly english taste, and i want it...hehe...weird!?
