Post 34: The Summer of Detox Has Begun (Part 1)
It's been a week and a half back home... and I've never missed it more. Being away so long and being as busy as I was (I'll get to how busy in a minute) I really appreciate being home now. This is my sanctuary, my hideout, my batcave... all of it. I'm kinda surprised that during the time that I've lived in my house in Floral Park, I've never brought any of my friends from school (Kellenberg and UNH) over and they've never come to the house either. It just adds to the mystique of home for me -- I'm in the one place where no one can find me. My cell's never been quieter, I don't get as many IMs (a few friends of mine IM'ed me last night which was nice)... when I'm home I'm truly off the grid and it's an amazing feeling. Nobody can actually find me here and if anybody wants to I don't know if anyone actually can... and I'm so burned out that I actually don't want to be found, no loneliness for me for the time being at least.
It's good to be home. All the stress that had built up throughout the last two months just fell off me like a weight off my shoulders once I got home. Getting home was an experience in itself -- the car stalled on me just as I got off the highway and onto a main street. But once I drove the car into the driveway, I just started breathing heavy like a weight had been lifted and it, figuratively speaking, was. The nightmare that the last few months -- the last week especially -- was over and I was finally in refuge away from the world so that I can refresh and recharge my batteries... cuz I was sho' nuff dead and running on fumes. I'll wrap up the year in the next post. I'm updating my other blog with much more uncensored detail since I hadn't in a long time.
