Resurrection!

I want to write, but I don't know what to write. So I will write what comes to mind.

I'm joining the Peace Corps. I think you both know that, even though I don't think I told you personally. This blog should have been the first to know, officially, considering it was made with the thought of keeping in touch for major movements/life occurrences & whatnot. I found out in June that my official destination is the Federated States of Micronesia & Palau. I leave for LA on September 2; the flight is the morning of the 3rd, but we have orientation stuff the day before. I'm nervous. I wasn't nervous really this whole time, but now it's getting closer, you know? I want to see you both before I go, and I think that will happen. I think my location will overlap with each of you for at least a few days this month, right?

I've been home since early July, and the time has gone slowly & without a lot of fuss. I'm not doing much more than reading occasionally and vegging out often. There's been lots of time for reflection, but very few revelations have occurred. I'd like to talk to you both. Because I miss you, and because hearing from what's new in your lives oftentimes lends me such perspective on my own. Family is wonderful for support & love & going over the details, but they're not the best for perspective. I guess it depends.

Anyway, I miss you both & I've been thinking about you. Hope you're well & that the world is a better place where you are.

Lots of love,
Mollie
