reality

i just learned tonight that my records have officially arrived in the huntington beach 1st ward.

i don't know why, but it actually made me gasp. there are moments that reality sneaks up on me. in the first couple of weeks after my arrival, it was usually accompanied by fear and trepidation, self-doubt, and uncertainty about the future.

but now it's changed. the uncertainty still exists, but instead of fear and trepidation, it is accompanied by excitement and anticipation. one of my former co-workers farewell to me included the following comment: "six months from now, your life won't remotely resemble the life you have now."

isn't that friggin' awesome!
