Friends...

So, second wedding in a month, and I am thoroughly done with rented shoes.

I was in Travis' wedding, standing up with him as his best man I couldn't have been more proud standing next to him as he married Sara. Then it was TJ's wedding, and to stand there as a groomsman to support him as he supported me almost eight years ago was very special. But there was something that deeply warmed my heart, and that was seeing friends I hadn't seen in a long time. Too long.

I will be one of the first to say that I have done a very bad job at staying in touch with my friends as time and/or distance has come between us. For that matter I am going to throw family in there, too. I can't say I will immediately be calling, emailing and visiting everyone I know, but I will promise to do a better job, make a better effort than I have done. First I will publish here every few days or so, and I will re-email everyone about the revival of this blog. I will start tonight and start emailing people I haven't seen in a while, or talked to in a while. Be patient with me, and I will do my best.

This time with people I haven't seen in a while has been very humbling and I want to thank every one of you for helping me see what I've been missing.
