It's 5:06 pm, and it looks like it's about 10 pm outside. Reason #2 why I don't come back to Moorhead until tomorrow. Reason #1 = ICE. So it's me, Andrea, and Hannah stranded in our comfortable homes, respectively, passing the time until tomorrow morning when (hopefully) the roads will be more...travelable. However, there is that nasty winter storm that's supposed to hit us tonight and tomorrow...so we'll see how that goes.
Worst case scenario, we don't get back till Tuesday. Better than driving on ICE in the DARK for FIVE HOURS. Because we'd be going 20 mph.
So after I emailed my profs and recovered from the guilt, I sat down to yet more homework. But what I hate is that any stress I feel translates directly into gastrointestinal knots for me. Seriously, when I'm stressed it goes to one of two places: my shoulders or my gut. Right now it's in my gut and I feel like I wanna puke. But I won't. Rawr.
I just wanna feel normal again. I haven't felt normal all year. Maybe that's because I'm NOT "normal," but what I'm talking about is my physical and emotional insides. Everything below my skin. This flesh I'm borrowing from God. My mitochondria have cabin fever and I keep losing my balance. Where is my balance? WHERE ARE YOU, MY BALANCE?!
Come back, Little Balance, come back! To no avail.
