the mysterious disappearance of 2008

so today . . . i cannot blog. all my photos from 2008 seem to have disappeared, and i need one of them to blog...

why, you may wonder, do i need a photo from 2008 in order to write a blog, which is really more about the words than about the pictures? well, because, i just do.

yesterday a friend of mine was in town for a short vacation, and i got to go see her. it made me smile and i came right home and started to blog about it. i added a photo that was taken of us. i wrote some more. then i went looking for that 2008 photo...and the folder with my 2008 photos seems to have gone awol!

i suppose i could post the blog without the picture--you wouldn't even know the difference--but it would feel incomplete to me. i must have it!!!!!

i don't know what could have happened to those pictures. i have been organizing my picture files (yes, still!) and am hoping i have not accidentally deleted 2008! it was a good year, and i would hate to lose it...

hopefully i will find the missing year of pictures. and when i do, you will get to read the blog i wrote yesterday. it will say "so today..." but it won't be about the day that it is posted--it will be about yesterday. which might confuse some of you...

...but that's what keeps things interesting :)
