hey!  how's it being back?  it takes some adjusting huh?  i just found an apartment in LA kinda close to Culver City and i'm in the process of moving in.  i start school in about a week.  eek!  i dunno if i'm ready!  what are you up to?  ryan tells me you're working at an izakaya??  that's awesome - i'll have to come check that out.  i know we're not living very close to each other, but we should definitely try to get together some time.  DANCING!!  oh yeah, so you're taking another trip out to vegas i hear?  haha, nice.  and i can't believe you ran into sally in SF!  small freakin' world . . .

anyways, take care!  we'll talk soon.
