Today I am officially 22 and a half. No, I don't really count halves anymore, but I happened to look at the date today and realized that it was my half birthday. In another 6 months I'll be 23. Wow, that's weird. I feel so old... and like I should be a mature, responsible adult, or something. And maybe I am on a certain level, but I still feel like a kid in a lot of ways. I mean, I don't even have a real job or anything ("real" in the sense of a job that's essentially permanent and I'm done with school).
And even though I hate change (like leaving home, and then leaving college), I'm finding that I really enjoy starting each new phase of my life. While I enjoyed high school, I would never go back. And while I really enjoyed college, I'm glad that I'm not in school right now.
And truly the only things that I really care about taking with me from life phase to life phase are my relationships with all my friends and family. And as long as I have you all, I think I can get used to everything else changing.

Hey, I start my position on Monday! Hurray!
hey, how do you think i feel! i'll be 23 next week! SCARY! i also wanted to say, michal, that i love the stories of the boys, considering my major and all, but don't stop, they are wonderful. i bet roni and bill would love to have all those anecdotes as their boys get older, you should print them out or write them down.
also, last thing, can you hang out with my kids, when i have them, because you are so amazingly descriptive, and i want you there anyway. i love you, hey we were supposed to talk, maybe this next weekend, oh no, i'll be backpacking, i don't know, we'll figure it out.
