It's dangerous to go alone. Take this.

I have left MD. I am home. And boy was it ever a scene parting ways at the airport.

Tomorrow is another new start. A new semester, that will surely kick my ass. And I want it. I want it to challenge me, and I want to conquer it. It doesn’t stop my nerves that will certainly keep me up tonight, but this glass of wine should calm me a bit.

It’s going to be a hard few months. But I have Jordan slightly closer, with weddings and trips on the horizon, so I know I will at least see him a smidgen. And I have friends. Friends whom I missed. I haven’t seen Sammi in a month. And I cannot say enough how much I love that work is now a place of friendship. We were never enemies, but now I have some real loving people to share hell with. It makes it so much more bearable.

It’s going to be a busy 4 months. So here’s to you, whatever your first quarter of the year will bring, and here’s to me. May we have the strength for whatever is placed before us.
