I'm sitting in a coffee shop, writing. It feels familiar but at the same time, so strange, because I know the second I step outside I'll be in Colorado instead of Washington. I'm in this tiny boat of familiarity in a sea of homesickness. (heh, how's that for a cheesy metaphor?) But I might be going home soon. :)
Let Go - Frou Frou
This is my song of choice at the moment. It will probably always feel weird to me to be able to hear something when no one else can. I'm listening and watching everyone else; all these people full of life while I sit here stagnant.
Hear Me Out by the same group is also really good.
I used to sit in the Atlas and write on this blog, long, rambling posts about how wonderful and strange life was. I couldn't imagine that someday I might see those same crazy quirks as something that took me away from my home to a much less magical place.
Although, let's be honest, we can blame a lot of that on me. I left. I didn't need to. I didn't even want to. I did it for someone else, because I couldn't stomach the thought of letting anyone go through that alone. I don't know where the line is between "really nice" and "doormat", but I imagine I've crossed it.
Odd how unlike me that is.
Radio - He Is We
My "basically best" friend from home just sent me that, to show me what "girly" was. I miss James dreadfully, perhaps the most of all my friends. But not more than my little sister. :(
Starlight - Muse
A bit of a flashback, and also something to make me feel better, because this song, without fail, always makes me feel better. Not sure why. The first part is just so damn cheerful.
I'm about to give someone the address to this blog.
James, don't abuse it!
