great to see mel and jen on:) i've been pretty inactive on the site, partially because of my recent visitors...and also because of my dying computer. after my repeated fits of pounding on my keyboard, i finally managed to to squeeze out some words here on the blog:-p

hey mel - i'm toying with the idea of going back to school. i guess i've always been thinking about it...just didn't know how soon (still haven't taken the gre). when lenissa was here, we talked about me going back to school for an m.arch as soon as fall 2004. the only thing is...i'd like to stay in chicago, which doesn't give me too many options as far as m.arch programs go. where have you been looking? however, if i were to find a good job sometime in the near future, i'd probably put off the m.arch idea until a few years down the road.

jen - guess i won't be able to give you much advice on your move. although...i know that elaine & yasha are in san fran (and vincinity); amanda is around LA; and beth in san diego:)

guess i will end this soon before my computer starts acting up again. talk to you all later.
