this is how it works, you cry until you laugh

you know how you're floating along in life, and you're aware something big is about to happen but your mind hasn't really accepted it yet? you're not thinking of the future...just here and now, and the good times, and the friends and the security you have in your situation.

and then something happens. something that makes your subconscious wake up. something that makes you stop in the middle of whatever nonsense you're keeping yourself busy with. and then it hits you. this IS going to happen.

it seems rediculous, but this is what happened to me lastnight. something as simple as selling our couches made me realize that we ARE indeed selling everything, saying goodbye to everyone and everything we've called home for the past 5 years and leaving. we're leaving....and now there's an empty room to remind me every day for the next 15 days.

    It's good you sold your couch-it probably wouldn't fit in a cardboard box under the bridge anyway.
    I really do hope you find a nice place soon. It was great to see you before you move so far away!
