It’s been over two weeks since my last post. Anyone still out there?
By a strange coincidence, just over two weeks ago I moved into a new house. I’m back in 29209, maybe 2 miles from the house I grew up in. Now that the ruckus is starting to die down — and I’m not spending all my time drilling holes in walls I just painted — I expect to start posting frequently again.

I hear “Press 1 if you speak English” in my sleep.
The new place is starting to feel like home, though. It helps that every street corner is familiar from childhood. The geographical equivalent of a good peanut-butter-and-jelly sandwich.

She told me her son, who’s around my age, lives on the street right behind me. Now if he lived in the house directly behind mine, that would really be something…
