Back home again

I’m back from the trip to my hometown back east. I can’t express how good it was to be back there. How calm I was (in anything that DIDN’T have to do with Mom or the shithole I live in now), and how much nicer an atmosphere there is there. By that I am talking in part of the people…to see a group of young people back there does NOT inspire fear and suspicion. People are pleasant and friendly. I felt safe outside at night. I felt I belonged. I saw my friends (not as much as I would have liked) and they treated me the same as they always did, like I haven’t been gone. It meant more to me than anyone will ever know.

And the town…a few changes but still basically the same. Simply lovely. Small and quiet. Being there reinforced the hatred I have for where I currently am. My homesickness is more than ever now. I will go back for good someday.

I know I have lots more to say but am still overwhelmed that I can’t find the words. But it was GREAT to be there. I didn’t get as many pictures as I wanted though, I suck at remembering to have the camera at hand. Below are some of the ones that I like the most.

As I mentioned last month, I’m taking a trip back east. Well today is the day! In a few hours I’ll be on a plane dodging thunderstorms all across the country. A check of the weather back there tells me that I’m going from 100+ temps and low humidity to high 90′s, high humidity and RAIN RAIN RAIN…and I can’t wait. I’ve got the laptop and the ipod all charged up and ready to go. And the camera so hopefully I’ll have lots of pictures to show when I get back.

The house I’m staying at doesn’t have internet (HORRORS!!!!!!) so I’ll have to use dialup (EVEN MORE HORRORS!!!) so my internet time will be at a minimum unless during one of my planned outings I can find a wifi hotspot somewhere.

See ya in a week!

I’m not going into details just yet, and most people probably won’t even really notice any difference but I will be doing work on the site. It probably won’t really happen until after I’m back from my trip but I’m hoping to ramp things up here a bit. I’m not even sure how to exactly go about what I want to do but I’ll figure it out eventually. Add some things, move things around and so forth. Again I don’t want to give too much away, mainly because if it doesn’t work out I won’t look so stupid.

So if the site is down now and again you’ll all know why.

Well I was right, no time at all in June!
