Goodbye Boston!

Jun 15, 2006 13:17

Tonight is my last night in Boston.  I've been really horrible about this "leaving Boston indefinitely" thing.  I haven't told most people the exact date of my departure and have not made any attempt to see people one last time.  The thought of having to say goodbye to so many people really upsets me to the point where I can't even deal with it.  Lame- I know.

Today is my last day at the police station.  Most people don't know that its my last day.  I know that if I had told them, they would have done something like when I went to Scotland.  There was a party, good food, and nice gifts.  The difference this time would be that I would have a total breakdown.  Some of these people are like family to me.  I can't say goodbye knowing that I honestly don't know when I'll see them again.  The worst people that I've avoided here are Sue & Jane.  And I told the Captain this morning.  Well, actually, I told him months ago, but have purposely not reminded him.

Last night Lucille and I met up for coffee, then some Thai.  We did our goodbyes, but Lucille stayed in her character and was as flippant as always and made saying goodbye pretty easy.  She's going to grad school in the city, so I'm actually more likely to see her, than anyone else I know from Boston, since she'll only be a commuter rail ride away for any visits I make to my mom's house.

Tonight I'm having dinner with Jane and possibly Lindsay.  This one is going to be tough, but Jane would beat my ass if I just disappeared on her.  Then Robson's coming over to the apartment for the party Lauren is orchestrating.  I'm terrified of Robson coming.  When I left for Scotland last year, he had this total breakdown.  I don't want to go through that again.

Let's see...who else have I avoided?  Leonard, Leon, Emmett, Jim, & Ava.  Jayde, Kate, Erica, Geoff, Kevin, Dorgan and crew.  Laurie.  Jessie.  Fabio.  Tia & Alexia.  Ben.  Sculls.  Ellen.  Nichole and Jeff.  Meaghan (although that's more timing than avoidance). Katie.  And who knows who else.  I'm so going to hell for this.  I feel bad, but I didn't think it would hit me this hard.  Fuck!

I'm really sorry to those that I won't be able to do a proper goodbye with.  However, keep reading here and send me emails to stay in touch.  The cell will work until I figure out what the hell I'm doing for the summer.  Once those plans are figured out, I will post my snail mail address for some good ole fashioned post!  And the email address will be good until August probably...when I change it, I will most definitely send out a massive 300 person email to notify everyone!  Aim always works too.  And myspace.  And thefacebook...I think you get the picture.

In the words of Mr. Folds:  It's Kim's last night in town!
