Apologies for the lack of update today. To be honest, it was a boring day--errands, chores, World of Warcraft, TV. The highlight of my day was my phone call with my dad*, followed by hanging out and bullshitting with the household.
Tomorrow, however, should be fun and exciting! Our friend Dan, and his girlfriend Kathleen, will be stopping by for lunch near the middle of the day. Ryan has known Dan since middle school, and we all met in high school. Since then, Dan has gone to college to Boston, and lived in New York and Chicago. Ironically, a month after Ryan and I move within 2 hours' drive of where Dan is--closer than we've been in years--Dan and Kathleen are moving to Arizona, by way of Pittsburg and South Carolina. Sadly, this will be our first and last chance to see him for quite a while.
I consider Dan one of my favorite friends. There are few people in life you can just hang out and bullshit with, no masks, no expectations, and still have pure fun. Dan is one of them, not to mention one of the funniest people in the entire world, and a ridiculously talented actor, writer, singer, etc etc.
Sorry, I'm gushing. I'm just very excited to see him tomorrow, finally meet his girlfriend, and have a chance to spend some time and get a good hug before they go off again.
I'll admit, I'm worried about how this will affect my emotions for the rest of the day, or even the week. Not only will it be the first time seeing one of my dearest friends in almost two years, for the last time for who knows how long...this will be the first "Connecticut person" we've seen since moving. I've been feeling a little more nostalgic and homesick the past week, so it might hit me harder than it should. I guess we'll see.
Anyway. That was today, and that will be tomorrow. For now, the sleep that comes in between. My aren't I creative.
*Hey, Dad, that weird tone-and-voice-cut-out I mentioned at the end of the call? Turns out it was my phone telling me I had low battery. Ha!
