You never know how much you use a part of your body until it's painful to do so.

I never knew my shoulder was connected to so many parts of my body. I never knew I used it to complete so many tasks.

Things I like:

  1. Driving to another state
  2. Frisbee
  3. Dunkin' Doughnuts
  4. Wawa
  5. Cycling
  6. Hanging with friends
  7. Sleeping in

And in the past 72 hours, I have done all of the above.

Monday only reinforced my detest for drivers in this state. And I'm ready to go on vacation. Can't I just fast-forward life?

5 more days. I think I can make it.

crash [dummy]

I saw it coming. But there was no avoiding it. No escape. Cars to the left; pedestrians to the right. I had to go straight in and take it.

Fourteen seconds earlier, I was on my way to Blockbuster to return my overdue movie. My left hand rested on top of the wheel; my right hand lingered on the stick shift. My seatbelt ran from my left shoulder to the buckle and across my lower waist. My speed was in the high 20's.

Then I saw it. The green SUV pulling across my intended direction of travel. And all of a sudden, the little things that I thought mattted, didn't.

The stick smoothly slipped into second gear as my foot depressed the brake and I tried, to no avail however, to keep the tires from locking up on the slick pavement.

A myriad of thoughts ran through my head. From, "Why did you pull in front of me?", to, "I just fixed that engine."

IMPACT. And both vehicles stopped. I jumped out and ran to see if the woman I hit was ok. A little dazed, fortunately, she wasn't hurt at all.

And as emergency services arrived on scene, for just a moment, Tyler Durden's voice played in my head:
"You just had a near-life expierience!"

Almost there...

Except for a couch, a desk, and a dresser, I have moved all of my earthly belongings into my new residence.

Thanks to Michael for the huge hand he provided to me. But this was not a time of only moving. We also made some important discoveries. We found out that cookies are good-especially when you eat the entire bag. We also discovered that you can fit unbelievable amounts of material inside a regular sedan.

Good bye, Blossom Street. Nice to know you.

Maybe it's just the way I am, but I really want to move. Some place different. The list is growing everyday. Charlotte, NC. New Jersey. Anchorage, AK. Los Angeles, CA. Monroe County, FL. Washington, DC. Honolulu, HI.

And I wanted to share that.

America's Star

I walked by myself today. On the way out to the car, there I was. Five years ago. I passed myself, and continued walking. I stared at myself, struck by the similarities, yet, also the differences.

I'm sure the teenager who walked by me on his way to the high school around the corner from my house had no idea that he reminded me of myself. That gait, that look, that way me carried his bag the way I used to. Myself five years ago-as a junior in high school.

I wanted to tell me what to do, what not to do, what to say, what not to say, but then I realize that me won't turn out as I have. All the mistakes (and there's more than I can remember) I've made and all the places I've screwed up. Yet, I'm here. I walked into a building today, the inside of which few people in their lives will ever see. That's where I've come. And I don't know where I'm going.

But seeing me today in front of the house reminded I of one thing: I'm glad the Navigator is plotting my course.

Today was my first day at my internship. Aside from meeting a lot of people's whose names I forgot fairly quickly, I sorted things all day. I did get to ride around for a little bit, and that was fun. I'm thankful for it

But I'm still trying to figure out this whirlwind of a weekend.

I walk in Friday, and that person who's played a substantial part of my development over the past two years is gone. L-T told me that that person wasn't to come here anymore, and that I was to quash any rumors. Rumors of what? He didn't tell me the truth to quash the rumors with.
