anniversary...

wow. so, two years ago this afternoon, i had a couple of seizures that totally changed my life. two years! time sure flies when you're having fun. (or something?)

it really did change my life. and that may be the most gratuitous sentence i've EVER written, given the content of various posts on this blog. it's been one hell of a two years, though. lots of adjustments, lots of reflecting, lots of figuring out emily.

in all honesty, i'm so grateful for that period of my life in 2004. despite all the chaos and the uncertainty and the fear and the horror and the worry, i came out okay. i came out better, even. it's that whole "gold is tested in fire" thing, i suppose. we don't get to see what we're made of until who we are gets truly challenged.

so, to all the people in my life (folks who read this site and folks who don't) who have been so amazingly supportive and funny and kind and important and so many good things, i love you all. i'm pretty gosh darn grateful for you, too.

xo,
emily
