about me - 08:10 PM
i'm working on a page about me with more than just statistic-like information. it's proving to be quite a task. i'm remembering situations & people that i haven't thought about in years. a real trip down memory lane. (i hate that phrase, i don't know why i just used it.) i thought that i could write it in half a day but i think that it's going to take longer than that. hmm, it's difficult to put into words why it's going to take a while .. it's not that i've done a whole lot in my life, i haven't really. i guess for me it's like unpacking boxes or cleaning out a set of draws with all sorts of junk in them. i can't just look at an item for a second & file it or throw it away. each piece of paper or empty wrapper or old letter brings back memories that cause me to think about my life over the past twenty-eight years. same thing with writing this detailed page about myself. every paragraph that i write brings back a memory which in turn brings back more memories. it's actually kind of mentally draining .. but in a good way.
