ah kids, i hate to do this to you, but i need to close up shop around here. dust bunnies are collecting in the corners and the cobwebs are hanging from the ceiling. my life has gotten busier, which means less reading and writing, unless it is work-related.
i started this blog a little over a year ago as a fun way to let whoever was curious know what i was reading and doing. reflecting over the past year, so much has changed: back then i was still fairly new to chicago and living in the ukrainian village. chicago has become my home now and i live in a completely different neighborhood with completely different roommates. a year ago i was a lowly secretary trying to find enough work to fill my day; now i am in charge of communications and media, which is much more work than i ever thought it would be but i love it. nearly a year ago i re-met an old friend from school; last week we marked six months of dating and growing together. last year i thought i would stay in chicago forever but had no clue what i would do with my life; now i have started to study for the GRE and will start applying to grad schools for my master's in library science (seems like a fitting profession, huh?).
all this and so much more in a bit more than twelve months. and if all of that can happen in merely one year, just imagine what kind of adventures the rest of my life holds...

As Garrison Keillor would say, "Be well, do good work, and keep in touch!"
oh sadness! i'll miss keeping up on your life via blog. i guess i'll have to find another way... hm, i've heard of this contraption called the "telephone". i'll give it a try!
Awww Kiki, with you retired and Todd on permanent leave, how will I be able to start my days???
But thanks for all the fun and thoughts. And I want my turn to meet the old friend soon.
I'll just say now that I'm not taking you off my bloglines, just in case you get the blog urge again sometime. It's addictive, you know.
and I was just going to add you to my blog roll. It sounds like some good things are in the future.
ps Am I the only non Bockheim reader?
