Home Sweet Home

I swear, I'm going to change the title of this blog to "I know I haven't blogged in awhile, but..." Sorry guys, I just have so many things going on in my ultra exciting universe.

I went to Louisiana last week, because I was homesick, and there were some folks that I just couldn't stay away from anymore. It was an amazing trip, and a great deal of my life's wishes came true. There were lots of tears,and lots of laughter, and of course, I ate lots of food.

It was wonderful to see my family and my friends again, the people that I love and have missed so dearly. The more things change, the more they stay the same. One of the best things was seeing that everyone is sprouting little minature versions of themselves. Crystal's got a little devil with the face of an angel, Mitzi's got a little showoff, and Skipper has got a little bohemian. Though, there was a couple of upsetting moments... seeing Sam actually order her own alcohol, and the horrifying discovery that one of my best friends made out with my ex-boyfriend during ring ceremony (her name has been intentionally left out, because I am a MUCH better friend than she is, and would never get her in trouble.... hahaha).

A great deal of my adventure was far to special for me to even write about. I think I'll keep those precious memories tucked safely inside my heart for awhile.

Of course, the visit wasn't near long enough; I wish I had a month to spare. And of course, now I am even more homesick than I was before. But the anxiety is gone, and I doubt it will resurface again. I am finally beginning to find a place for my past. And I certainly won't be staying away for very long.

Now I am back in Virginia Beach, and glad to be with my Peanut again. Back to the tourists, and the beach, and the aggravations of real life. Golly wouldn't it be great if we could just pick up and go?
