I blame it largely on the job. And also on you coming through Atlanta last summer.
It certainly weren't the Mortimers keeping me away. ::smile::

that's good to know. though you weren't around for the worst of it. *shudder*
and yeah, work's been keeping you pretty continually busy,

RE interesting house, etc: Not to take anything away from my parents and, especially, how hard they've worked to get there, but it saddens me to know that I'll probably never be in the sort of position they're in to so fully be able to afford most of what they enjoy doing.
Ah well. Im sure I'll get by.

*nod* understood. :/
but...yeah. as long as you can get by, you'll be ok. and you should still be able to afford a bike or two, i'd think. :)
