I've been in Boston for over a month now. I really miss my family but at the same time I'm very happy to be here. It really is a great place to live for someone like me. I never am at a loss for something to do even if I still choose to spend a lot of my time at the computer.

I'm thinking that I'll probably make a trip back to Michigan around the weekend of August 18. That's around Bradley's birthday. He'll be back from his internship in Little Rock (yes it sounds funny to say that, an "Internship in Arkansas" but I think it is doing him good) and Mark will be getting ready to move to Chicago to start his Ph. D at Northwestern. The brothers Bentonio reunited for one last (for now) night.

I don't know even know if any of my family checks this. I suppose some of them probably have once or twice. I'm going to go out on a limb here because I know of only two people for sure who check my page (you know who you are.) If any of my brothers, parents, relatives, coworkers, ex-girlfriend (singular) check this, feel free to leave a comment so I know who my audience is. I realize that there will probably only be you two, but I think I can live with that.
