Just to clear up some stuff that I think might not have been so crystal - and totally my fault:
As far as my friends and family goes, I'm the one missing, not anyone else. I have been horribly remiss in TONS of things when it comes to keeping my connections strong, because I've had my head up my ass. I could give you the litany of what's been going on with me, but there's no point in messing up my claiming of responsibility.
The wounds I was picking have to do with the things I left behind when I left Cville, the stuff I loved to be a part of but had to let go. Also, the things that I handled badly, in retrospect.
That's what happens when you write enigmatically, with emotions and some guilt in the forefront, it seems. I have been trying to step up and own my fuckups past and present, and it seems that I'm creating some other issues in my wake. Again, I apologise. As I observed - you'd think I would be better at this after 40 years, but no.

2007-10-03 12:47 (UTC)I have been really missing Katrina the past few days, even though that relationship wasn't healthy for either of us in the end. I miss the conversations with her, our inside jokes, and playfulness. I miss even the tilt of her head and the hours we spent together hanging out.
I have really been missing a great deal of my life in Charlottesville, so I can share in that. :o
