It's days like these when moving doesn't seem as glamorous as it did in the beginning.
For a little bit now I've known that I would be moving to California in January/February. Every day my heart feels differently about it. One day I'm excited, eager for change, and I see fun surroundings abound...but then when I have nights like last night, and I don't want to move.
I met up with Lindsey and Sarah to go to SATCO for some cheap dinner food followed by coffee at Fido where we met up with Morgan. I do love that place and that part of town. Well both of those places, though really different in their own rights. For instance, SATCO is filled with Vanderbilt people/students/faculty with button down shirts in light blue and dark gray North Face pullovers. Fido on the other hand has a lot of artsy/music-y people with scarves beat up vintage boots and laptops. It's funny.... We stayed at Fido's for quite a while talking about break ups, random happenings, the law, boys, etc. It was good, dang it I love those times. After coffee mugs were emptied of their drinks and legs became restless we drove over to Centennial park for jumping shots. Just so you know Centennial park at night is the best. Creepy, but fun. We walk onto the Parthenon steps ready to take jumping pictures which I am no pro at by the way. After many odd looking jumps and a horrible 360 turn gone wrong I retired and took pictures of the others. But wait there's more. Whilst all of their jumping Morgan gets distracted by this highschool couple talking to us about a Possum. Yes a freaking possum was all over the parthenon, just waddling along the steps scared and hissing. We stared at him for a long time, took pictures with him, sang him praise songs, but later abandoned him for hot chocolate at Morgan's house. Today is her grandmother's esate sale so her front room was covered in a owl and santa clause collection. Not to mention her affinity for tupperware, Annie (little redheaded orphan) plates and salt and pepper shakers. Nicely done Granny Miller! We had fun, we laughed, danced and took way too many pictures.
You see what I mean? It's times like that that make me want to stay. They make me want to move to Nashville and be close to the city life without leaving my family and friends behind to move across the country.
Maybe it's just my being skiddish about it all. I know I need to cover this situation with prayer and have Him handle it all.
I think I'm just scared, nervous and eager all at the same time. hmmph.
I pray that things go as they should. I pray that I am not missing out on something that could greatly change my life or walk out on great things. This is just..........
