Beautiful, Yet a Little Too Mushy
I know that I have really been slacking lately. It is probably a mixture of not much going on and me being lazy.
It seems my moving date has been pushed back a whole month. The end of the lease is apparently the end of April instead of the beggining, so that adds another month to my stay here in Chicago. I am kinda glad to have a little extra time here, but when you are prepared for something and it gets pushed back, its just kinda frustrating.
I don't want to just sound like I am complaining though, so I will say that I am sure there is a reason that I will be here in April. I believe there are no mistakes in life. There is an opportunity here for more growth. I must make myself open to it, even though my instinct is to go hide in my room for two months under a thick blanket of smoke.
MB and I have been getting along pretty well again. It is a nice return. Thoughts of missing her assail me. I fight them off, because I want to enjoy our time we have together now.
Sunday I got up and went to brunch with Sarah. She always makes my day just talking to her. We ate more than I had eaten in the three previous days combined. Biscuits and gravy, sausage, bacon, hash browns, omlette, waffles, coffee, bloody marys, and a piece of french toast really hit the spot. After brunch I shuffled into blockbuster to find the remainder of my dreary afternoon. I picked up Garden State by Zach Braff. It is a story of finding home again. Beautiful even if it is a little mushy. I can totally relate.
