clouds of butterflies ev-er-y-where

hello everyone. i just got back from texas. other than missing my 6am flight back to california, events back east couldn't have gone better. i miss all of you so much, and it was fantastic to see the few of you out there again. tiny trips like this result in the unique opportunity to stuff a ton of fantastic memories into my brain over a short amount of time - to have fantastic conversations - to "catch up" as never before. man, i miss my family already. geeeez. and diane (um, THANK YOU). and amanda it was so super good to freaking talk to your face again. and i got to see maaar-tha (what a fantastic new addition to the south-central texas experience). so much happened, but rather than tell stories - i will post photos of texas-week later on...

but for now, it's photo catch-up time:
