quickie post
Flying back will eat the whole day, even though I'll be actually in the air for only 5 1/2 hours or so. I love having my laptop; I have my own in-flight movies.
I think leaving will be easier this time.![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
zinnea pointed out that this time I'm not carting 8 cats on a massive road trip, and while a lack of 8 cats always makes traveling easier, I think it's also true that I'm going to be OK. I mean, I think I'm going to do better.
Sometimes I worry that part of me doesn't want to be happy in the south. That my subconscious is somehow convinced that I can't belong in both, and I certainly don't want to stay in Tennessee, so I shouldn't be happy there. Like I wouldn't fit in anymore in Seattle if I became perfectly happy in Chattanooga.
On the other hand--OK, listen, stupid subconscious: isn't it even better to manage to be happy in a place you don't really belong than to bitch and moan about it all the time?

STILL love that place, but have lots of other places that make me smile too.
IT's funny... I'm looking forward to the Havoc boy visiting hopefully NEXT weekend. He had to cancel. BUT I get to see Seven-Virtues on Friday. We BOTH has days off! XD THAT and it also gives me extra time to Martha/Gracia the house. I'm planning for "good friends for a cozy fun weekend with good food watching anime and hitting up Madison and our lovely historic top 10 Main Street USA"... but it has been more... so I dunno. As both plans are good for goofing around/bopping around and "hip checking". He's fun because he's bigger than I am... so I feel teensy... and like I can hip check him. OR we might hold hands and that would be very very nice too. Both types of fun/affection would work in all cases. I RAMBLE... THAT is what I lack... a friend boy around here. I don't want the ONE AND ONLY yet... but DAMN... a girl has NEEDS!
WE will see.

That's wonderful! Yeah, it takes a long time for everyone, I guess. I had always heard 6 months was the minimum timeframe for adjusting to a new place. Add in the cultural differences for our moves, and I think we're both doing pretty well! I hope you have a great time with the boy!
