something to smile about

not that there hasn't been much to smile about actually. but the past few weeks have been particularly trying in many ways. I've been forced to regress my actions to reflect those of a year ago, but the way i look at it, if you to get someplace badly enough, a tough journey only makes your arrival all the sweeter.

the journey of these two books took over two weeks, from the amazon(ian) godowns in lexington, kentucky all the way to lil old singapore, but the emotions involved upon receiving them took me on a trip to the moon that makes the journey of the books resemble a hop to the nearest provision store.

"dear b, i FOUND you even when you were neither lost, tossed or forgotten. good find hor?"

with a note like that to accompany such a surprise, is it any wonder why i love her to bits?
