JESS!!!!!
Howdy.

Yeah, the big lake here in Austin, Lake Travis. It's still only thirty minutes or less to downtown, though.

And the area is awesome. It's funny, though. There are small houses out there in some parts, and then sometimes you'll have a multimillion (and I do mean multi) dollar house right across the street. So it's interesting to drive around out there.

Moving to a lake? Wow, that does sound pretty awesome. Meh, you'll miss them because you don't see them, and it never hurts to keep in touch. What's the area like?

Oh yeahhhhh. I knew you were going on that trip, but I thought it wasn't for a month or so.

I wondered why you were gone...

I think we're going to move out by the lake. I'm really hoping that nothing in this falls through. I'll be ten times happier out there, I'll bet, than in a neighborhood. (Although I'll miss my friends in this one. I rarely see them, though, anyway, I guess.)

I was hoping to hear from you. I've really missed you, Jess. I don't know about you, but for the past five days, I was in Hawaii. Family trip. Just stepped through the door, actually.

Hey, where have you been?

No worries.

Did you read those things? Despite how jumbled they were, they still make the most sense to me. Sort of.

I'm on! Sorry for the delay.

Jack, I'm going nuts.

Pleeeease get online.

(Meanwhile, I'm folding clothes and listening to the offspring.)

I'm always up for a chat with a beautiful young woman. And that goes double for a friend. I'll be fine, just some crap I should be done with by now, but probably am finally. I caught a bit on your DA account earlier. If you're still up, I'll check into Live, otherwise feel free to PM me.
