A Day in the Life of a Girl on the Run

I have been spending a lot of time contemplating why I am moving.  I mean for financial reasons it makes a lot of sense.  But the truth is I am also moving to get away from a boy.  I do that quite a bit.  If my heart gets broken it is time to scoot and I do.  When the going gets tough for me emotionally I will leave.  I don’t mean I’ll leave the situation, I mean I am doing to put a much distance between me and the source of my anxiety, quick and in a hurry.

I don’t really have feelings about the situation with GwtS very often.  I mostly just feel numb about it.  I will and won’t miss him but I haven’t seen him in over a month and I don’t feel bad about that.  Seeing him might actually make me feel bad.  I suspect it would.  I have no desire to test that theory.  But the truth is it is my fault I would feel bad.

Putting that logic into play really means I am trying to run from myself.  That isn’t really possible but as my pending move grows closer, I feel more at peace with my decision.    For now, this remains my best option.  I have finally started packing, an aspect of moving that I despise.  Packing is one of my all-time least favorite things to do but I am finally, emotionally, ready to go.

My head is clear enough that I can write again although I haven’t had much time to do so.  Today I am making time.  I have one big goodbye left. I am having a going away party Friday and after that I am going back to Klamath.  But I am in pretty good headspace.  I feel okay about going just not the packing.  Fucking packing.

    • I am actually getting excited. I just had to get past the initial fear and ego about it. (I am a Taurus!) I am going to write a book and their no shame in that.
