Heading home this weekend for the first time since July 2004 when I was there for my Grandmother's funeral. It's odd to be so separated from my family for such a long time and I don't really try to think about why it is that way or what it means. I suppose I'd always had a bit of distance from my family when I was a teenager because I knew I wanted to get out of Kentucky and go someplace that I thought would be a little more tolerant towards the things that make people different.
I'm sure the landscape will be beautiful and I'm hoping to get some writing done.
Feeling a tad introspective and sad today. Let myself fall a little bit in love recently... partly just to know if I still could (and I CAN) and partly because I had no choice in the matter. I was simply overcome by the friendship and sweetness of, and positive energy of, and flattery by this terrific guy. Anyway, this particular object of my affections is leaving town for awhile... til at least January. It's happening while I'm dreamily lost in that 'where have you been til now?' phase -- before the euphoria wears off and you realize that the other person does indeed have faults that bug and annoy you -- so he still seems perfect to me. I think I kinda like that.
hey....if you are look'n for some moonshine or just want to hang...you know where my trailer is.
