trying out some new blogging software, so you are going to have to bear with me in this post. firstly, i have taken to using bloglines to check out the updates for my blogroll. thus far, the practice is serving me well. i will keep you posted.
secondly, i downloaded the new widget that posts to blogger from your dashboard. i already recognize that i do not know how to choose the title using this format. i will make an attempt to figure that out. however, i enjoy being able to jot down a line here and there in class by pressing F12.
and...just in case you were a doubting thomas, sometimes talking does help. Steve and i had a very long, and sometime heated though at others filled with silence, discussion regarding not only our discussion last week-end, but also our lives in general. we decided that we would both like our relationship to work out. this is a start. that we both enjoy spending time together, sharing what happens when we are apart, and knowing that the other person is there (somewhere in the world) and caring about what happens to us. i dare anyone to better define what a long-term relationship, with the possibility of it suddenly becoming a long-distance one in the future. we also talked about our conflicting life goals...which still pose quite a problem, but i think we both feel better about being on this boat. we then proceeded to go out for dinner at Mikes, where my order was screwed up yet again but good anyways, so the waitress was forgiven.
i couldn't decide whether to post about something more thoughtful today instead of sharing this daily update, but, realizing that the majority of my readers are also friends who have shown some interest in my relationship status, i decided to bore the rest of you. to compensate, tomorrow's post is planned to be on giving presentations and quiet vs. loud/obnoxious people.
