Roots or Wings?

Nov 30, 2006 21:02

So I'm watching Sweet Home Alabama, for the hundredth time, and Jake, Reese Witherspoon's estranged husband tells her, "You can't have roots and wings", and it got me thinking about my own situation.

I think I convinced myself that Lafayette was so horrible so it would be easier to leave. I left, and it's like I flew too fast and too high. I dug myself in a hole, and am just now coming up for air.

Every time I go back, I'm surrounded by friends. Not just friends, but people who seem to genuine care about me. Leslie, and Adam and Ryan, just to name a few. Not like here. I can name two people who I honestly think have my back in New Orleans.

But I only have a week and a half left. Maybe I just need to figure out how to fly first. Plus, my mama needs me now, so I'm gonna help her out.

See y'all on the eleventh.
