Updates: Goodbye Chicago, hello Boscobel 24/7! I left the bank at the end of March and moved into this big old house for good. No more 3AM runs to catch the train to the Windy City. This is a good thing and was way overdue. Sleep deprivation and stress make you ugly inside and out :). I do miss the energy of Chicago but she's there waiting anytime for me and anyone else who wants to visit. You know who you are pals! If you're curious about Chicago, Devil In the White City is an excellent historical fiction about the city and the World's Exposition of 1893.
Busy now working as the Boscobel city librarian, making time to dig in the garden, strip floors in the house and go fishing on the weekends. Writing and painting will come again soon- takes a while to rediscover thyself.
Also have been playing online at secondlife.com, myspace.com and meez.com. This started in an effort to better understand the POV of the teens who frequent the library, but its changing my own point of view. Social networking tools present some compelling possibilites for defining new identities within the parallel universe of cyberspace. Here's our library avatar. More soon.
