I've been itching to get back into blogging ever since my computer crapped out. It's funny how you don't know how much you miss something until you actually can't do it i.e my writing. SO pissed my hard drive crashed because I didn't have the edited first chapter of my book saved on a external drive. Oh you better believe I'm goign to constantly save that thing from now on. So happy to have my computer back but not looking forward to re-setting up everything. It's really not that big of a deal I just had a very poor experience with the customer service with microsoft office last time. I'm prayign that it will be a far smoother transition this time.
To make up for my lack of blogging I journaled for a little while but that was on a more limited basis. I was goingt o journal on the beach down in Florida but my hands were all sweaty and I didn't want to smudge the pages. Then I was going to journal on the plane rides to and from the sunshien state but my lack fo elbow room preventing me from writing down my thoughts. All of these excuses make me feel like I didn't have anything super important to write about but in reality I have missed the ability to share my thoughts with all of you out here reading in the blogosphere. Especially because there's been lots of crazy happenings in my life throughout the past couple of weeks. Lots of different feeligns and emotions have been coursing through my body. Sadness, anger, frustration, attraction, lust, happiness, and so many others due to the whirlwind of events and people in my life.
Some of these events I'll keep to myself but I've been down about the departure of my buddy Jeff. We cultivated quite a bromance and he will certainly be missed. I feel bad because when some of my other, older friends left home from places like Georgia and California I don't remember myself being so sad. Maybe because Jeff's departure was such a surprise. I mea I expected to share stories about our student teaching experiences in practicum this fall and instead he'll be down in Texas explainign different funds to potential clients. I'm happy for the guy and I know it's the right move for him but I'm still going to miss him.
Changing gears: In addition to my past weekend in Florida, which peaked when my dad and I fed baby alligators at a mini-golf course, I'll be flying across the Atlantic to the holy land in two days. It'll be great to see the family and attend the nuptuals of my cousin and his bride to be. Israeli weddings are always a blast and I look forward to celebrating the joyous occasion with all of my family members. So excited about it and hopefully I'll keep up the blog when I'm over there. Shouldn't eb a problem because everyone has a computer. The novel will have to be put on hold yet again but I can work on that through my journal. So tired right now. Thanks to a great friend who listened to me vent last night. Sometimes you just need to get the crap in your life off your chest so that you can sleep easy and start over the next day. Until next time, adios, and it feels damn good to be back.
You're back. This is good.
