so here i am, at school again. i feel as if i have been here forever, yet i know that i haven't.

things that i realized/were confirmed today -
1 - i AM going to athens tomorrow. i feel sorry for my cats, who have not really seen me much this week, but maybe i can make it home early-ish tonight, and cuddle with them. Judy said i could leave tomorrow around 3, so that is my goal - be out of here by 4 at the latest, and on the road (hopefully not an icy road!)

2- I am living my dreams. What this means, i am not sure. i am not currently living all of them, but who can live all their dreams at once? :)

my dreams - i only applied to UGA for undergrad. okay, not the best choice, but hey. I got in, graduated in four years due to postsecondary options in high school.

i have an absolutely kick ass boyfriend. He loves me to death, doesn't mind that i am overweight, or that i fucked up the pockets on his jacket. we have an open relationship, and not only does he not mind me being bi, he chick hunts with me. how much better could it get? and he doesn't blame me for going off to school and leaving him alone for a year. instead, he drives forever every other weekend to see me, and them drives forever back home, thus leaving himself absolutely no time to get anything done, so the rest of his life is rushed.

the only grad school i applied to was unc-ch. i got accepted. i don't think anyone who knew my skill level though i would be - i know now that i should not have been, honestly. i am making the best of it, though. and sure, i am busy as hell, but what do i expect? living your dream is time consuming. :)

i wanted friends up here - i have met some of the absolute coolest, most wonderful people in raliegh and around, recently. sure, it took me 6 months, but i found them. :)

i have lots of other dreams, and a lot of them have to do with where i go from here, or who i ultimately want to be. but i was just thinking today about how lucky i am, and why was i feeling slightly depressed, because most of the things i need/want, i have gotten. and yes, i have had my share of disappointments, but who hasn't?

on other points - the jacket it going well. i am almost to the point where i should have been weds morning, which is a plus considering how far behnd i am/was. i am done with my silk painting, and moving on to finding things for the next project, fabric stenciling. must get it approved tomorrow.

i have dawdled long enough - time to check my email and go back to working on the facings.

I think it's way cool that you are out there doing what you want to do. I especially respect you for being willing to start over in a new place. That takes guts.
