long time no see

what can I say ..... time flies ..... but I bet you know that already

I'm back to the ranks of working people, in addition to being a student. So I guess that maybe explains some of my absence.

News?
I guess I sound repetitive and this is probably the topic most discussed on this blog, but it just keeps surprising me, how warm it is here in DC. Nothing like the winter I know. It's January and the temperatures jump around 5-15C. But then again, I guess it is geographically on the same line with Lisbon.

Other than that - been here and there. Explored some of Chicago, Indiana, and some more of NYC. Chicago was cold, reminded of winter at home. Indiana was sweet and fun - you know, truck people land, and NYC was crowded.

Now back in school and working.
