Life and the like
14 years ago
The next few weeks are going to see some drastic changes in my life. By this Friday I'll be waving good-bye to NH and moving back to MA. I'm finding myself looking at this and feeling an entire mixture of emotions.
On Leaving NH:
But I'm also going to be sad to move. I've grown really fond of living with
in this quiet little area of NH. Its been peaceful and has proved a great time for me to just step aside and reflect on my life and what is important to me as a person. I've had a lot of fun here and I truly am going to miss the great company.
On Returning to MA:
I'm going to be excited to be back in the area that I know and love. I really do love the "Boston" area and what it has to offer. I feels like home to me.
Moving back to MA also means I'll be with my otter
again, though. He will be returning from Sweden, cutting his stay short by well over a year, less then a week after I make my move. I look forward to being with him again and starting out lives together. Its only been a few months since he proposed to me, and even that was via Skype from Sweden, but I already feel like I've spent years with him and cannot wait to be back in his arms again.
On Writing:
I've been using a good portion of my downtime to return to something I used to do frequently when I was a teenage - write. I had, at one point in my life, been a good ways through a children's novel that I even had a publisher on board for. They liked the idea and liked the characters and they wanted to publish it. I lost interest when my computers HDD failed and ruined over half of what I had written. I learned to do frequent back-ups after that, but never really wrote like I had before.
Recently, due to
introducing me to NaNoWriMo, I've picked it back up again. I'm getting really into the story I've come up with and the details of the world. Thus far I'm writing everything as swiftly as I can, attempting to cram a months of writing into the few days before my otter returns. I've already passed the halfway point and am narrowing in on the final bits of the story. As I write it I can't help but dream of other stories that take place in the universe and what could be happening elsewhere. If I'm not completely sick of writing by the time I hammer this out, I think I'd like to possibly return to write more stories in the world.
Its a zombie-esque survival story, by the by. ;3
On Family:
Its been nearly a year now since I've last seen my family. A great deal has happened, both to me and to them, in that time. I've lost my Grandmother. My Brother has popped out another kid. My Dad has lost his job and landed a new one. My cat, 15 years old, passed away. I'll be hopping a plane shortly after seeing my otter to go home for half a month.
I'm looking forward to flying home to be with my folks again, but that means I won't have access to the internet or even a computer for 15 days. I don't even think I'll have cellular service in the area, so my phone will be useless as well. I'm hoping that time will away from the wired world will do me some good. Not to mention I can't wait to sit around the table with my Mother in the early morning light and just talk like we used to do.
TL;DR:
I'm moving back to Waltham, MA on the 11th of this month. Shortly after that I'll be reunited with my Otter whom left for gradschool in Sweden. A few days later I'm going to be hopping a plane to see my folks back in KY with no computer, internet, or phone service. I'll be there for half a month.

In the time I've known you, I have watched you grow up, practically. You have changed a lot since I originally met you. Though, it saddens me a bit that I have not been as vigilant of how you have been within the past couple years or so. Still, I hope there is opportunity for us to see how the other has been more in depth to the occasionally "Hi." and "Hey."
You have this Tythran's best wishes.
I'm sorry I haven't been more responsive. My life has been a little silly, to say the least, of late. ^^;
