i have been a bag of emotions this week. anxious. sad. defeated. disappointed.
i had a big week (don’t get me wrong):
i booked a trip back to dc, where i’ll get to meet one of my idols,
i booked my second wedding for 2013 (yes, 2013),
and this time next week, i’ll be hightailing it to chicago. (a solo trip, not to be read in to)
i think my problem is that i need some time away. time to clear my head.
if i still lived in chicago, it wouldn’t be a problem. i’d simply lace up the sneaks, turn up the music, turn down my thoughts, and walk…east to the lake, north up to division, west to state and south back to chestnut.
sure, i can do that now but it’s not the same. that chaotic solitude of being by yourself with your own thoughts, but never physically alone.
all will return to normal, i’m sure of it. it has to- i have too many things to look forward to. i am a blessed person, i know this for sure.
