College life for me?

As many of you may already know I have been thrown into an unintentional vacation to visit Luke's amazing Grandparents in San Antonio, Texas. Although, I do wish that I had come her of my own free will, I love taking this opportunity to spend some much needed time with them. They have both had to work this week. So, over the last few days I have joined John at his school, UTSA. There is one close to the house and one in down town San Antonio. Today I sit in the common area that has a a name kind of like sombrero. As I watch the young adults mingle over coffee, I find it hard to see myself in this world long term. Yes, if I had had to chance to go to college directly after high school I would have fit in very well. Although, now, I find it hard to put aside my feelings of jealousy and contempt for most these people. They are living the life that I wanted for so very long. School IS their job. Perhaps, if I start in a community college I wil feel differently. What do you think?

Away I go

Luke and I have been together for over 4 years. During this time we have never been apart for an extended period of time. We have been extremely lucky in this. Now, I have offered my shoulder for a friend. Her name is Ariel McAllister Ratzlaff. Her husband is currently away in the army. She has the daunting task of moving away from El Paso. Together we will sell/organize/move everything they own. oh AND she has a 4 1/2 month old son. :D We will be leaving on the 15th till October 15th. I am very excited to go. But, a month is a very long time for Luke and I. So, wish us luck in our adventures this month and I will see you all next month!

Sleepy Weekend Over

This weekend was difficult. Not in the sense of cash, time, or expectations. Simply put, I slept most all weekend. If I was not sleeping I was tired and upset. I am glad that it is over and I can get back to feeling alive in the middle of the night again. I know that I am likely turning into a vampire but for now I am okay with that. :D
