chris, thank you so much for your amazingly kind comment. i've just been under so much fire from my ex and the guy i'm dating's ex. it's a mess, and though fouls were committed on all sides, they all blame me because i'm so convenient to blame because i'm leaving austin soon and won't be in their lives anymore. so they're unleashing all their wrath upon me, and i tried to ignore it for awhile, but it just got ridiculous--strangers threatening me with physical violence. so that's basically what's happening. thanks for your support though, chris. i can't tell you how much i appreciate it in this heinous time. anyway, i'm in austin until mid-august (with the exception of this upcoming week), so we should hang out. -a
