April Smiles

Ususally the old saying goes something like, "April Showers bring May Flowers." Yet, for me, this April has brought me many smiles! And for a number of reasons, including my birthday on the 2nd, an AWESOME Moby Concert on the 11th, a delectable concert for Elvis Costello on the 26th, and a real feeling of connectedness here in Richmond, VA. i HATED Richmond when i moved here the first time in April 2002. i LOATHED its closed-mindedness, lack of cosmoplitan flavor, etc. Living here the 2nd time has caused it to really get into my soul and i have learned to appreciate its myriad of eclecticness. i have forged new friendships, found a group of fellow pilgrims i enjoy journeying with, and getting out and about the city.
