warning

just a few more days and four more shifts and then im on the road. kind of crazy. despite how much it means to me that everyone keeps telling me how much theyll miss me and they dont want me to go, i have a good feeling about all of this. it feels like my life is finally about to start being exactly what ive always felt it was supposed to be like. 

i went and got a new phone number. an alabama phone number. never in my life did i ever ever ever think id be calling alabama ‘home.’ so weird.

as of saturday my 815 area code will be no longer. its nice to feel that little bit of permanence before i actually get there. feels like i actually have something to reach and call my own in this weird crazy transitional time. 

logan will be here sunday, we spend the day with family and saying my final goodbyes. my stomach’s all twisted up with the bittersweetness of it all…but i wouldnt change any of this.
