it's been over a month since i've posted...and a long while since i really posted anything of worth. but truly, who is to say what worth is?

i'm leaving in 19 days...for North Carolina. i just spent a hour plotting out my adventure, trying to shave off miles while avoiding West Virginia. my signal is horrible in WV. last thing i need is for my good ole cutlass to break down in back-woods WV.

i'm walking the line between eager and anxious. they are two separate things...not by common definition...but they are two different things definitely. part of me doesn't want to miss a day of niece's life. i want to be there for everything, but staying in this area will eventually smother me. it isn't that taylorville lacks things to do; it is that you tire of doing them over and over again. i'll miss my family and friends horribly, i'm sure. but i am a creature of habit...give me classes, a part-time job, and possibly (dare i say it?) some dance classes...and the days between august and november will prolly fly.

i'm ready for an adventure. it is long overdue.

aren't you afraid
or even a little nervous?
yeah, mom, but that's what makes it fun
