SP:"What does she do?"
FP:"Oh, she's a full time psycho."This year, I do think I will start writing more. There's been a lot in my head that could use to get out lately, and not many opportunities for me to say all I'd like to, when I'd like to

It is true that some things have changed in your absence, that some social angst has been stirred up. I assure you it existed before, it is sporradic, it always will be like that. You were never personally involved before, and now you are being often squashed into a mediator position or asked to accept things which take time to adjust to.

I also think us folks back home are not the only ones who have changed. Perhaps part of this is *you* have changed and are seeing this ol' town and your friends though different eyes.

Rest assured, however, everyone was so gleefuly happy to have you back in the fold. I know I am trying not to think too much about you leaving because I am going to miss you so much all over again! It is unlikely that you will "lose your social place." Those of us who are your friends, at least I speak for myself, truly value your friendship. You do need a balance, as do I, between lone wolf and social butterfly. You need time to rest and recharge, and as a "visitor" one rarely gets that time. If you were living here, I think, although it might take some time you'd fit back in again and become accustomed to the social ideocyncrasies once more. I too get wander lust. I love to travel, to meet new people, have new experiences. I always like to come back to this old town. You might find you are done with Thunder Bay as your home, or you may come back here. As long as I am here, I will look forward to you being here again, either for a visit or to live for a while.

Have a good flight back to Toronto, and I am sure I will see you again before too very long.

*love*
