I don't consider myself very nostalgic, but crossing the border into Pennsylvania was beyond enthralling. I watched the temperature slowly drop as we drove further north, and insisted on stopping at every Sheetz gas station we passed. My old college friends are already making plans to meet up; it's nice to know you are missed.
Apparently I've been the talk of my small hometown lately too. People were excited when they received my Absentee Ballot, I guess because no one really goes anywhere around here. And no I did NOT vote for Obama, thank you very much. Republican all the way and damn proud of it.
Next month I will be off my parent's health insurance, so I've been taking advantage of that while I'm here. I made an appointment with the doc yesterday; two vaccinations and some new prescriptions later, I went ahead and made another appointment in a few weeks for more vaccinations. Booya.
I haven't quite "settled in" yet and I don't think I will either. The 5 suitcases that are my life are currently exploding all over my old room. Things aren't unbearable, but I know they will be; there's a reason I haven't officially been back in 5 years and I'd like to avoid rediscovering that reason.
Besides my work ethic is like an unstoppable, constantly growing being that must feed on the unfinished, the unorganized, and all looming projects. If I ever find myself in a state of boredom, my god... the chaos. In other words, I need to find work or I'll disintegrate into a pile of dust, be sucked up into a vacuum cleaner, thrown into the garbage can, then driven off to some landfill to rot and be forgotten.
Or worse, I'll be bored. *gasp*
