nothing
October 4, 2008
Nothing feels quite like coming home.
Even after seeing gemsbok (my favorite African antelope), watching a hippo watch us, and spending an evening with a herd of elephants, nothing feels quite like coming home.
Even after a pedicure, a back massage, and the professional hair removal of my, um, nether-regions, nothing feels quite like coming home.
Even after a road trip complete with good music, great conversation, and lots of laughter over an emergency on-the-side-of-the-road pee break, nothing feels quite like coming home.
Nothing, at all, feels quite like coming home.
(I didn’t take very many pictures on safari, but here’s the best of the best.)
The giraffe is fascinating to me. Just fascinating.

roxx — a friend took this picture on our trip to madagascar last year (she treated us to an incredible vacation!). we were watching the sunset over the water. the blurry thing in the bottom right of the picture is a man in a dug-out canoe. so peaceful.
brandy — not a brazilian. just a regular ol’ bikini wax. but i thought of you while i was getting it done. wait… that sounds odder than i intended.
tamster — thank you. i know what you mean. i love you too!
O Alece, I loved the ride home!

What a beautiful picture Leece. I would love to go to a safari! There was a safari park in London that I went to a lot when we were living there and I used to love going there.
I hope all is well with you. I miss you. Sorry I’ve been kind of incognito. Love you lots.

THAT header is one of my favorites. it’s you. and him. i like it.
Yay you. So even though I am not HOME…like in location, Daniel is here now and I am home with him. Dang…finally. Life makes sense once again. I might want to shave or something though…you know…because that sounds kinda interesting. Who knows, maybe the natives will like it.
