Trees... Lots of Trees
Maryland has been great so far. Much more fun than I had antipated it being. It's nice out here. Except for the huge ass bugs. Ech.
I miss home, but this was the break that I needed. It gives me time and space to think about things.
It's made Grace and I a lot closer with each other, which I'm thankful for. I'm beginning to see a whole new side to her, one which I wouldn't have been able to see if we were back home. It almost feels like I'm getting to know her for the first time everyday.
While we were driving back to her house the other night, I started to talk to her about things that I've never been able to really say much about before with anyone else. I felt completely safe and fearless... which is something very new to me. Well, not since I've been with her, but before that.
I've been taking a lot of pictures. I have around 90 pictures so far. Funny ones of Grace too.
I got an unexpected call from Kiyoshi today. I feel very mixed about it. On one hand, it was great to hear his voice again. I missed him and we got a chance to catch up. But on the other, it hurt me to hear about the things that he's been through. Now more than ever, it's painfully obvious how distant and different we've become to one another. A few years before, we spent almost every day with each other. And we used to have so much in common.
I told him that I would call as soon as I got back from Maryland so we could hang out. I wonder what it's going to be like to spend time with him again. Hopefully, he won't decide to suddenly disappear like he's been doing for the past 3 years.
