Mess and Happiness

Oh, hello friends.
How are you?
I know I've been a bad blogger.
I've tried keeping up with your stories and letting you know that I'm still alive here and there, but this whole life-school-work thing is almost more than I can do.
I've just sprinted through a particularly grueling season, if I do say so myself and tonight, I've given myself a few hours off, just to do absolutely nothing. My body knows that some rest is around the corner and has started to give out. I have definitely learned that being in college doesn't mean I can treat my body like it's 20! Busting it like I have lately, though, has earned me a bit of mad money and I am so excited to announce that I've ordered a big girl camera lens! I absolutely can't wait till it gets here!
We have lots going on, as always, but it's all just bits of news - little items that don't, in themselves, make a good story.
Without rambling further, I just want to say that I've missed you. We'll catch up soon, even if it's brief, but sleep is calling out to me. That's a bit unusual. We're not usually on speaking terms, sleep and I. I think I'll answer that call.
