I'm sitting in Austin about to depart for LA, coming home from a wonderful week with family for thanksgiving...
I needed to see them so much and am glad I did. things are about to change in a major way and 2009 will find me in a new pattern of things, new job, new direction, and with an ultimately better outlook on life. it's in my hands; i accept that now. i've let this "situation" (well there are many) compel me to play a victim. can't do that anymore.
so i'm looking forward to who knows what.
oh wait--croatia. i'm going to dubrovnik, a coastal mediterranean village bordering serbia but facing the adriatic sea. i cannot wait, and i cannot thank T enough for the idea and for the suggestion that i do something good for myself and come along. gotta get out of this country, especially if i want to have any perspective on it.
things feel...better. i had las palapas for breakfast while A and i drove back from san antonio and had girl talk, which was awesome and i miss it. we watched as many episodes of the office on her iTunes last night and i had a blast. i missed seeing a few people but will be back in a couple weeks and would love to catch up with as many TX kids as possible!
peace and love
i hope to write again soon...am
