the sky in las vegas looks fake. honestly. if you've ever been inside the forum shops at caesar's palace and looked at the sky painted on the ceiling, that's what it looks like outside here. and the clouds are orange. it's nothing like home. except that it is home. because i live here. i remember growing up when i would vacation here ad we would be flying home and we would be able to see the city lit up at night, and you would notice that outside of the strip there were houses and it occurred to me that people actually lived here. i always thought about how absolutely bizarre it was that anyone would want to live in las vegas. and now here i am, 1200 miles from the people in my life that i love the most. and the state that i miss like crazy.
i can see the stratosphere and the light from the luxor in my backyard. it's unreal. and not in the good way.
the 2 day drive here was interesting. my momma and i played fun road trip games, like name that roadkill and spot the cell-tower. i think the nevada department of transportation is playing a very sick joke on people because on highway 50 they advertise these little towns like 90 miles before you get to them, and then you get there and it's like nothing. they don't even have gas stations or bathrooms or grassy patches for your fussy dog to piss on. it's like a sign that says welcome to *insert town name here* and then another sign that says, *only 132 miles from the fabulous town on -insert the name of a town with absolutely nothing here-* we got into tonopah and finally had cell service for the first time in 2 days and i wanted to move there and make that town my life for the sole purpose of not losing cell service. it was awful.
i feel like a big shithead for not really saying goodbye to everyone. i just couldn't handle reality so i ran off and hid at adam's house pretending i wasn't moving for my whole last week. adam and i are going to try the long distance thing, which is weird because i'm not usually one to actually give a shit about the people im in a relationship with. and i care so much about this guy i'm giving up my dating rights in sin-city to be with him, 1200 miles apart from each other. that my friends, is dedication.
i start abercrombie again tomorrow. it should be good. the condo is all set up and i should have full internet access by tomorrow. it will be nice to talk to everyone again. i should be home in september sometime for a few days. ill keep y'all posted. i love and miss everyone like crazy. come visit me!!!
