I can't believe it......I'm homesick.
I thought I'd be immune to homesickness. I couldn't wait to get away from my family (one person specifically). I wanted to be all alone and not have to deal with their bullshit anymore.
I didn't think that I'd feel all alone. I didn't think that there would be things from home that I'd miss so much.
I miss having a vehicle. Whenever I would get sad/angry/bored etc. I'd hop in my vehicle, grab some good mix cds, and a pack of camel lights and just drive....to nowhere in particular, but just drive....for hours. I REALLY miss that.
I miss the local 'scene' I miss going to BaakGwai and Model Citizen shows. I miss hanging out with all the kids too emo for their own good.
I miss having a movie buddy. In fact I miss the whole Cobb (well Ex-Cobb now) Crew. As much as I bitched about that place...for the most part, I liked working there.
I miss Kylie. Not just a best friend, but a sister...that was always up for anything....no matter how geeky or silly it was. I miss going to Hooligans with her and eating greek salads and gyros.
I miss Jesse. Even though he's coming to visit soon..I still miss him. I miss just chillin' watching Aqua Teen or Family Guy.
I miss having a kitchen. Yes, I know I don't cook that often...but I miss being able to cook tacos and black beans and yellow rice.
I miss that old apartment in Downtown Tuscaloosa. That was such a great place...sure there were problems (the attack of the termites-and the random fire alarms at 2am) but I miss it. I miss the hardwood floors, and vibe of the place. I miss having 'rooms' and a window in my bathroom.
I miss living next to the gay bar. I loved the noises on Friday and Saturday nights.
I actually miss the changing of the weather. The kind where it's not warm enough to wear short skirts, but not cold enough for a full on jacket.
I miss being just a 5 hour drive from Destin. (Yes, I know I live just 1 block from the beach now....but there are no boys I grew up with on this beach)
I could probably list a million more things that I miss, but I'm just too depressed.
I wish it were already Thanksgiving so I could go home.

Oh, and I totally forgot...you still live next door to a gay bar. Hulas, the 2nd floor open air bar one or two buildings up the road from your place.

AH yes. Family is good, but in small small doses.
