I get this way sometimes. Partly due to the anxiety of waiting to know the direction of our lives and partly because physics is a bitch. Maybe it’s that I get a little depressed in life every few years. Or maybe it’s not. You know when you walk around the house feeling lonely? It could be that I grew up in a family of 8 so there was NO trouble finding someone in your space. It was annoying and comforting all at the same time. Did I mention all us kids shared a bathroom. Touching. It’s that feeling when you just want everyone you love in the same room. Just sitting there.
For now, I am listening to fleet foxes, which isn’t entirely helping but it is perpetuating the sad which feels kinda good. I am mixing up a batch of mac and cheese, what else can I say?
It will feel good to be around my family in a few months. I miss you.

I understand completely. I miss you so much! I cannot wait to see you.
I had a day like this today…I did a lot of laying on the couch with my blanket and drinking hot chocolate. It didn’t help that Abbigail crawled around the house screaming and crying half the day for what I thought was no reason until later I discovered that her first teeth were breaking through. Oh man.
it is nice to know I am not alone.
I read your post and thought of Psalty the Singing Songbook… I know, I am not sure how my brain works either.
Psalty? Wow, I just made that reference recently. Sometimes I miss people I can make those types of references with. Physics is a bitch and being lonely is something I am starting to get used to…it actually makes me think of having kids to fill the silence.
I guess what I am trying to say is, I get it. You forgot to mention your friends also shared that bathroom with you guys. I loved being at your house when I was little…even the dishes assembly line.
Thanks for sharing. I can definitely relate.
Psalty and 6+ kids sharing a bathroom definitely brings back memories.
Jessica and I are hoping you and Andy will be down in Phoenix on May 30th. I’m fairly certain that Jed and Lindsay are coming.
