it's been so long since i've logged into livejournal that it took me four tries to get my password right.
so, francis (that is this hurricane, right?) is coming for a visit. it couldn't decide which destination in florida to hit, so it's deciding to go everywhere. ha. well, we're prepped with a grill, some candles, and experience from charley so we're all ready to go.
ever get that feeling of sadness where you so heartbreakingly miss something, but you know things will never be the same? i get that sometimes. in reference to a lot of things. last summer, i remember being so miserable in virginia. in hindsight, though, i had some really awesome times. in my last semester at belmont, i was in a really bad place, but now i see that there are so many things i miss, things i wish i'd done before i left, places i wish i'd gone, people i wish i'd seen one more time...
i just want things to be right again. but that'll take a long time. and i want to be able to sit back and relax, to let things go and not be so angry that things aren't right. how do people do that? i've never really gotten the handle on it.
in writing this, i'm getting that angry lump in my throat, even though i don't really know what it is i am trying to say. things don't always make sense, but it's good to get them out, even if it is somewhere as not cool as lj.
mom's bday is in a few days. i'm going to browse the internet for gift ideas.
i won't be online for a while after the hurricane, i presume. power was out for a little while last time. no big deal. i'm not so good at keeping in touch with people via internet, anyway.
