I’m in a mood again. Currently, I’m on Spring Break. I just got home tonight (Sunday) because I spent the weekend with my best friend in Omaha. If you put this weekend’s itinerary down on paper, it would probably make me want to jump off a cliff. But in all reality, I just finished one of the best weekends of my life. The highlights:
1. Doing a jigsaw (not crossword) puzzle in the house of complete strangers while babysitting their kids.
2. Watching “Reba” and enjoying the hell out of it despite my initial objections.
3. Standing in the prom dress section of Yonkers waiting while my friend tried on multiple outfits.
I can’t explain it. I really can’t, but I would spend the rest of my life the way I spent this past weekend if given the option. I think it was because it allowed me to be every part of me that I love. And for the first time in months, I didn’t feel lonely. I would never trade this experience for the world.
Disappointingly, the feeling didn’t last. I’m home, which is great. I love my parents and my brother. But now, I feel like I’m back in the real world. I no longer feel like I can be me. I feel alone again. Oh well, I guess I’ll just get more therapy.
