I am heading home to spend some time with my dad in Conway, SC for a few days. I'll be taking my dogs with me and doing the long 7 hour drive tomorrow. I used to do this drive alot - a few times a year actually. Now it seems I am always getting on a plane.
I am looking forward to the drive. And to having Bodhi and Fridha with me.
I have been settling in to Old Town Alexandria. I seem to be crying less. Less sad.And just moving on with life. Which just feels good cause I gotta tell ya, depression I can handle - this major transition shit that has me all twisted up is for the fucking birds.
I am finding some comfort in the groundlessness I am feeling these days. I am in this freefall of sorts.
I don't think a trip home will lend any kind of comfort but a nice road trip always does my creative, adventurous side some good.
I can't wait to see who I meet on the road and to take some photos.
More more and more soon.
[das ist gut] I used to look forward to the 9 hour drive to and from college as it was a meditative and uninterrupted space to lose myself in thoughts about the past, present, and future.

Vox cut off the end of my comment which was: Have a safe trip with some time to take perspective of things.
