 Wow, so it's been 9 years and 11 months so I wrote in this blog. I'm kind of surprised to see that it still exists actually. 

Anyway, I'm not going to try to catch you up on the last decade but instead tell you about something cool I got in my mailbox the other day.

Several years ago I wrote to Juliet -- yeah that Juliet in Verona, Italy. I asked her what the secret to lasting love was -- which I honestly didn't realize until after I maled the letter might have been an insensitive question to ask somebody who died at age 13. But she wrote me back and gave great advice, The letter's been hanging on my bulletin board ever since.

Then they made a movie about Juliet's rebirth as a romantic penpal and all of a sudden everybody was writing to Juliet. After a while I started to feel kinda bad for Romeo cuz he was half of one of the greatest love stories of all time but nobody wanted to give him credit or ask him advice. So I wrote to him. He  must have been surprised to receive my missive cuz it took him several months to respond. But it was worth waiting for.
