after seeing off my girl to Boston, and driving that three hours that have become second nature to me. we picked him up that night at the airport, and the journey began.
We were so excited, always planning what we were going to do next, always on our feet, always together. Nothing's changed, except we now have negative dollars.
The rough patch has passed, thank the Lord, and now it's weird to comprehend that he'll be leaving for Holland again in less than a week. He told me a few days ago that he probably won't be coming back next year because he'll be saving for Australia - where he'll be living Spring 2012. That's weird too. I've never travelled out of the country, and especially never by myself. It's weird to think that within the next few years, if I want to see him, I'll have to fly over seas. I'll have to buy the tickets, and it's going to take a lot of saving and planning. Both of which I am awful at.
That all can change.
Just like the breakdown I had in my living room,
just like your breakdown.
Just like that friendship that's blossoming, and the ones that are fading away-
that all can change.
I'm making rice right now because cookies and bread aren't good, sustainable food. Especially for someone who is hypoglycemic like myself. Just drinking my ice cold Diet Coke, and enjoying this little inkling of solitude I have at my kitchen table.
