Open up my eager eyes, 'cause I'm Mr. Brightside
THE NEW YEAR - DEATH CAB FOR CUTIE
So this is the new year
And I have no resolutions
For selfl assigned penance
For problems with easy solutions
So everybody put your best suit or dress on
Let's make believe that we are wealthy for just this once
Lighting firecrackers off on the front lawn
As thirty dialogues bleed into one
I wish the world was flat like the old days
Then i could travel just by folding a map
No more airplanes, or speedtrains, or freeways
There'd be no distance that can hold us back.

So this is the new year
Now that I'm back at Blast! I'm slowly settling back into my little way of life. Much like sand on the bottom of the ocean... it just takes time to settle back down. Or something like that. I'm in Virginia right now. With future plans to head up to Rhode Island. What's there I really don't know. But I will find out soon enough.
Being home was really good for me. It has been so long since I have stayed home for more than a couple of days. By the end of the first week I felt like I was supposed to leave, or get back to rehearsal or something like that. But I could get used to coming home for extended periods of time. I didn't really realize how much I missed my family until they were there24/7. My little brother is getting so big so fast. It's scary. I'm going to make it a point to be a part of his life a lot more from this point on. I wont be the absent older brother, I want to have a part in his life.
I also got to catch up with some people that I haven't talked to in forever. Some people from high school, some people from before that. Which wasn't especially weird... just new. Almost like meeting someone for the first time, but not quite. lol. There weren't a lot of people that I knew that were still hanging around. I didn't really expect there to be, it was just something that I really didn't cross my mind until it actually happened.
Home for me, now, isn't something foreign or weird... it's a place I can go to be myself and be with the people I love. I've been home more times this year than I have in the past 4. I want to keep up this trend, I enjoy it. At times it can be boring because I don't have a car in Houston, so I my mobility is a bit restricted. But it could be much worse.
Ok ... I have to run now... I'll finish this later...
I'm back now... eventhough it is the next day and I was planning on wrapping it up later night, but that ended up not happening. I was reading about my root chakra and then I woke up at 7 am. That was interesting, mainly because I woke up in my jeans, t-shirt, show hair and morning breath that quite possibly made the wallpaper peel. Now don't get me wrong, I'm a person and have morning breath, but not this unfortunate.
