Lobe Katie!

...I miss having Kellie, Dan, Steph, and usually Seth at my beck and call. And me at theirs. I miss going out after work and driving around... I miss adventuring at the mall and lusting after priests. I miss Krystal. I haven't seen her since the night we sat out in the middle of the parking lot at Hotel 8 and ate an entire carton of ice cream... As much as they hated it, I'm going to miss having Dan, Kellie, and Stephanie all in one place so I know where to find them... And next year, I'm not sure how much interest my college friends are going to have in hanging out with me. For instance, only the Alleged God knows what Kellie's going to be doing. All her talk about a traveling theatre company scares the shit out of me. Where will she be? If she's in Paris, she won't be available to me... --KatieMakesPie

If it's any comfort... to Katie or to anyone else... As far as I know, I will be in Normal this summer, and I will finish my degree at Illinois State University. This isn't for sure, and I'm still exploring some other options. But right now, I just want want to be in Normal and to direct for Shoes again. More than anything, I want to go back home and do what I love, with the people I love.

And... I didn't hate living with Steph and Dan. I don't know how they felt living with me, but I don't think they hated it either... It was hard. Really hard. We drank too much, we didn't eat or sleep enough. We were broke. We got on each other's nerves more than we thought we would, and we - or at least I - didn't always handle it well. I can admit, I had a lot of really hard nights and even harder morning-afters. And when I left for Bing, I was still carrying around a lot of anger towards my old friends. But just as I hoped, the bad times are fading away, and I'm letting go of the petty and the bitter and basking in the love.
