So I am back in Florida, and the school year is 1.5 months in and my house is being auctioned this week. Yea, I didn't expect it this soon either, but we have to do what we have to do. I am completely stressed out to the point of not being able to sleep, clenching my jaw and literally pulling out my hair, which btw if you haven't seen, is in fact dreaded. Yea, I didn't make it very long into the national gathering before I had one giant dread. My friend Roger helped me separate them and now they are finally starting to lock up and look pretty cute. I am not Sideshow Bob no matter how many people call me that. :\ .
I had the most amazing experience this summer. I met so many beautiful and wonderful people, saw some of the most breathtaking sights, and explored many new adventures. Even the bad stuff was good. It was a summer of learning and growing and becoming a better human, as well as fun. I brought a friend home (and her dog) to live with me while Mark is out west working because I knew after spending so much time together I (and Zooey) would be a basket-case if I had to be home alone for 4 months. I was right. People here don't get it, they don't understand how my views on life have changed, but really this all was put in motion years ago, lifetimes ago if you think about it. Now we have a 3rd person living here and her dog. The problem is that we are in the middle of selling off everything in the house and I am super stressed out with work and the house and I miss Mark and it's really hard for others to take my feelings into consideration because this combination of craziness has not afflicted them before. Regardless of any of that, I'm having a hard time and I would like that to be taken into consideration when I flip the fuck out. Come on, it's bound to happen.
The book? ah yes, it's all in my head now... I need more info and a computer, but some of the possible chapters so far... There's a drum circle in the kitchen, princess wave, topless Tuesday, infested, pizza anyone?, manifestation, truck stop showers, cattail hollow, and many more. I know, I sound like and infomercial.
I will post more detailing some of the amazing adventures I had, but I need more time for that.
I know you are eager to know what is next for me, and all I can tell you now is that something big is on the horizon. In December Mark and I will reunite and together will begin a new chapter of our adventure.
I think sometime in August is when it really hit me... this man is my soul-mate
