happy thanksgiving..!
i just made pumpkin pie. for me and a select number of coworkers.
now it's off to work to not get paid time and a half even though it's a stat holiday.
i'm getting pretty psyched for the interviews i have this week.

but you're not bringing back what's dead

i woke up this morning feeling super happy and refreshed. still am. but now i have to start getting ready to go to work. so the sinking pit-of-stomach feeling is growing
it's thanksgiving weekend... and i've gotta work. oh well. time and a half tomorrow. over time today. IF i get paid. fuck.
while i was laying in bed, i realized i promised some work buddies a pumpkin pie for dessert tomorrow night. then i started thinking about all the times i've made pumpkin pie. then i remembered k and i making pumpkin pie thanksgiving plans in july... and me thinking how ridiculous making plans with him for october was. in july.
i'd totally make him a pumpkin pie too.
except he left the continent.
i need to get over my barrier.
dan left for b.c. this morning.
last week i realized that pretty much everyone has left calgary that i've met since moving here. but me. most are coming back in a few months. from away. india x 2, greece x 2, and japan. and belgium. i guess mike counts as someone who has left. but his return to canada is really nothing to me.
my parents wrote an e-mail to me the other day, requesting that i move home. they don't understand why i just can't live on the east coast yet. i'm not ready... i'm way closer to being ready to not be here than i was 3 months ago, but i'm not convinced that east is the answer. i'd really like to be closer to a place where i know i have friends. family. people who aren't merely transitional acquaintances. i'm ready for stability.
if i knew stability was waiting for me at the other end of a long drive, i'd be on the road in a second.
