magically i will be gone: two weeks

two weeks.
two weeks.
1 4 d a y s.
two weeks.
thank god (little "g," of course). the weather here has been hit or miss since i arrived 10 weeks ago. may pretended like it was going to be nice, but more often than not stayed overcast. most of june was cloudy, but the locals referred to is as "june gloom" and so we assumed it would end in july. july 1st proved to be cloudy, but by july 3rd, the sun came out and shined through the holiday weekend. it continued to frequent us throughout the past two weeks until the other day when the weather become chilly and the clouds went back to hiding our rays of happiness.

in the mean time, i have been preparing to pack up all of my posessions here and move back to the east coast. i am not very motivated about the packing, but the planning is constantly on my mind. beds, china cabinets, mirrors, shelves, dining sets, and even felines have been acquired, a moving truck reserved, and an apartment awaits. lola (my car) and i will be heading back very soon, although not soon enough, and the better part of being graduated from college and out of officer commissioning school will begin. kitchens and furniture, hard wood floors and cobblestone streets, historic churches and sidewalks filled with locked up bicycles awaits! jill will join them, lola will find a home, and my new kitty will take ownership of my room and adjust to her new life in the city.
