Hey There

I've never been a big writer. I hate To Do Lists and I've never kept any kind of journal. But I will try to keep this thing up -- I know it's been months since I've actually written anything here. I am living in Williamsburg, VA now. I am currently living in some married couple's house in the country (they rent 2 rooms out upstairs and I have 1 of them...rent is pretty cheap). Technically, I live in Toano, 15 minutes outside of Willyburg. It's not a bad drive, and I really don't have to make it more than twice a day. I spend most of my time with Elaine or Starbucks when I'm not working.

I work for the Jamestown-Yorktown Foundation, which means I get to work at both museums here in VA. It is pretty cool being able to work at both museums, although I spend most of my time at Jamestown. I am getting ready to do some volunteer work for the curatorial department at J-town, which I'm excited about because it will put me on track for doing that sort of work in the future. I currently do visitor services stuff, which is fine but a little boring to be honest. I mainly answer questions and direct people where to go all day. However, I will start giving tours of the museum in a few weeks and that will be pretty cool.

I am looking forward to warmer weather here so I can kayak. Baylor's marina was OK but it was a little confined. I'll try to get Elaine to canoe with me too sometime, but we'll see how many times we actually do that. ( ; I've started playing racquetball again with this guy (Pat) I met through Elaine's friend (Kristina). It's one small step to being constantly active again. I miss the SLC at Baylor. I miss playing basketball and racquetball for hours upon hours.

That's all for now -- I told you, I hate writing.
