I found my old old old blog from senior year in high school. It's funny how four years later, I feel almost exactly the same way as I did then.
Plenty has changed. Four years ago, I had no idea that I would be going to the school that spawned Bob Ross and his Happy Trees (or, most recently, was the site of the filming of some vampire porn). I didn't know that I would be working for the internet and not getting paid. I didn't know that I cold hold together a relationship over long distance and several years.
At the same time, though, I spent a lot of saturdays in high school doing what I'm doing tonight - sitting at home, at my computer. I finished the draft of my nightmare campaigns paper today, and drove to Upland to get ice cream. Tonight, I need to go get beer for the super bowl party, clean my room, and practice dj-ing / make a playlist.
The new version of my wonderscarf is coming along alright. I can work on that while I try to figure out how to be a DJ with no headphones, mixer or training.
As much as I do love my alone time, I wish I could share it. I miss all of the days over breaks that Colin and I sit around in his living room, or up at the Lamplighter, just drinking beer and doing our own separate things. There's something comfortable about doing your separate things together.
I hope my pageant winnings get here soon. I really need a mini-vacation to Indianapolis.
Four years ago, I also didn't know that having the money to go to Indianapolis would be such a wonderful thing.
I am a man filled with longing desire,
Kerry
