Day 105: Bros for life!

I've been incredibly homesick for the past couple days. I'm not depressed or anything. It's not like that. But I've just been thinking about all the amazing moments and people I'm missing while I'm here. I've got this list swirling around my head of things I'm missing out on: seeing Clare's NOMT, watching the Ghost Bro-a-thon with Lauren, watching our mutual shows while actually in the same room with Kelli, getting to spend time with Phil, staying up late chatting with Erin, stargazing, girls' nights, Pike Place, hanging out at NPCC, etc. I miss the little things, the life things.

I'll get back for a visit as soon as I can, although the timing mostly depends on when my family needs me. I can't wait to see people and catch up, and I can't wait to have that part of my life back.

Seattle really is home. I'm perfectly happy here, but I know that going back is what I want and need to do. Now it's just a matter of when.

Today, I am grateful for:

• having so many amazing people in my life that are worth missing.
• tonight's pre-Halloween Ghost Bro-a-thon. I'm very excited in a very nerdy way.
• knowing that my grandmother would be very happy with present circumstances.
• dog play dates.
• looking behind me to see two napping dogs and at least four toys strewn around my room.
