Haven't written much in a while, but I'm in one of those "Sentimental" moods--must be the New Year and everything. 2006--oh my god, where did the time go?!! I can't believe that this year, I will be able to say "Oh, I graduated from LSU 2 years ago..." "oh yea, Garth and I broke up 2 years ago..." "I went to San Francisco 2 years ago..." "I moved from Baton Rouge a year ago"...oh man, all those things seem like they happened yesterday!!! Time sure does fly...
I was just thinking this morning how with all this time passing me by, I'm starting to forget what it was like living in Baton Rouge..all those routines I picked up my last year there..running the lakes, going to the rec, shopping at the Winn Dixie (haha), eating at Chimes, driving around campus...I have serioulsy not spent a lot of time there in SO long, I'm starting to lose a lot of those simple memories. I forgot about the whole "andy" thing...when I got my new dog, when Jess and Travis got married, when I was at Pelican Point, driving out to Gonzales everyday..It's been a year since Mandy and brad got married--oh my gosh!!
Sorry, all these realizations are just now getting to me--geez!
The cool thing is that I have vowed to spend more time there next football season for sure...i want to go back as much as possible in the fall--I think I was a teeensy bit scared this year that the overload of 'memories' and stuff would get to me too much--yes, I know, I'm retarded, but it's true--I miss it a lot sometimes, and being there makes me second guess some of the decisions I made, and I hate to feel that way. But...I've felt like that in a while, so I think this year, I'll make many more trips to BR, to visit Jess and Travis, and hopefully Pat when he moves there, provided things work out with us, but who knows.
That's a WHooooooole 'nother story:) How can you date someone when they're gone 1 and 2 months at a time? Answer me that...ugh, it's kinda frustrating. But, we're just taking baby steps. Going to a wedding together next month that I'm really excited about...and one of my cousins is getting married too, so we may go to that one together also. Should be fun.
Had such a great time hanging out with Robyn, mandy, meredith, all the old friends while they were here for the holidays. It's depressing when everyone leaves and Christmas is over:( boo...I already miss everyone!
Well, I should get back to work..just though I'd write about how incredibly INSANE it is to think about 2005, that it's over, and now for another new year...
OH and how about that Orange Bowl game last night--good lord, I thought it would never end! My suggestion was for JoePa and Bowden to meet in the center of the field and play a little "Rock, Paper, Scissors" to figure that one out...geez.
Hook 'Em Horns tonight!! GEAUX TX:)
Happy New Year,
