Newness

It's 2009, but after this long semester it feels like it should be 2011 already. I'm so excited about this new year. Opportunities may slip away, but new ones will come. I worked my ass off this semester and it payed off. I'm not really looking forward to the start of work again just yet -- I do enjoy time off -- but I'm pumped deep down inside.

This slight hiatus from work has given me time for some deeper introspection. When I lay down in bed, I think. I remember why it is I wrote so much before, and I ask myself why I don't anymore. I have notebooks filled with words. I don't have new notebooks anymore, so I'll have to make some.

I went on another adventure this last couple of weeks, explored Kentucky and everything that Serge has been surrounded with, and realized that I don't always panic on planes (I didn't today!).

He's going away, though.
I couldn't help but feel like today was the last time I'd see him.
I'm afraid.
Maybe that's why the plane wasn't so bad -- I just had something else to panic about.

Here's to the start of a new year. Let's make it a good one.
