Partially unstrung..

Heartstrings pluck off tune of late, something I'm trying to figure out still. I know it has a lot to do with missing home and people there, as well as a host of other things I've gone over again and again. *shrug*

Been making nifty gifts for Burning Man in the evenings lately, after running errands and collecting the last bits we still need. Slowly getting closer to being ready to pack up and head to Reno. Definitely nervous. I sort of feel like I'm going to the moon.

And then we've got a little time to rest and clean the apartment like crazy before leaving again to spend time with Henri's parents, and then my parents are coming to visit, after which point it will be the beginning of the semester again.

We have been in California for one year today.

As much as I really like the natural biodiversity and the cultural diversity of the state... I'm terrified of earthquakes. It's a constant source of low-level stress, and I'm really looking forward to living again in an area where I can be reasonably sure that the ground will stay put.

Off to sleep now..

Later.
