17 days

i believe that's how long it's been since i last talked to you. and i'm so so so sorry. i'm a terrible person, i know. but i've been away soaking up mom and dad's company, banking it away so i can dig it out in the next six months before i see them again. then i was in china hanging out with val for four more days of the great beijing, where i could've had some time to blog, but the chinese gov't blocked blogger so no dice.

but now i'm home in suphan for a hot minute and you best believe i've got some stories for you, bloggy friends. pictures will include bikes, nests, fancy drinks, protests, and (most importantly) ASIAN BABIES! coming soon. now it's almost four in the morning and i'm doing that thing i always do when i get home from a trip and spend too much time on the internet doing nothing. sleep now.
