bittersweet evidence




I came across a little invention called the "chat transcript viewer" for adium today and decided to look at a few past conversations that I had with people online.
old friends, new friends, strangers, people I don't talk to anymore.
some date all the way back to the beginning of freshman year.
some are from just a day ago.
how can I put this...
I guess I felt waves of nostalgia.
gentle ones and great big ones.
cringing at some things I've said, laughing at others--it definitely takes me back.
so much has changed in the course of two years.

lesson learned: one should never dwell too long in the past.
