So, I have internet...
A guy about my age angrily came to my door to perform what would become a 2 and half hour service that would eventually consist of killing various bugs outside of my house, a sing along, story time, 3 cigarette breaks, and finally plugging in the right cable so that I can blog like a normal person.
This is Nashville.
I have seen fireflies and lightning bolts. Real ones.
Real nature.
Real beauty.
I've felt real fear.
I've lost and then found myself at least 5 times daily.
I've done more loads of laundry than I can count.
I've painted my nails 7 different colors.
I've wash the same glass every day for 2 weeks.
I have had some of the best conversations on a porch with people close to me,
and on the phone with those that are far away.
I want to be in two places at once all of the time.
But only so I can let the people I miss know that I miss them.
There are nights that should have lasted longer.
Beds I wish I'd never left.
Eyes whose gaze I wish I could hold. Because I would. I fucking would.
But this is distance.
And it's real.
