Claire (aka Mumma) took me to the airport this morning. She about shit when she saw all my stuff but thanks to my excellent car packing skills and great ability to curl up in the back seat, it was all good. Anyhoo, she dropped me off, cried her eyes out "Don't go.. just stay here! You're like my daughter!"
The long trek home begins...
Home. Wow. Old home I guess. I arrived in Lawrence. On a Wednesday evening. Where do you think I ended up? Where are all my friends, every Wednesday night since the beginning of time? Henry T's? Christian picked me up from the airport. Gave me a phone number and an address to file my lost luggage, and took me to Lawrence. Mom and Grandma Weezie came to Lawrence that evening 'cause we were leaving early the next morning to go to Wichita. Home. I really just wanted to see Mom. I knew she was in Lawrence and I really just wanted to see my Mom. So we went to Thelma's and said hello to Mom and Grandma and Thelma. Mom didn't want to come to dinner so we just went. I was so out of it, and so tired, and so weirded out by all the new little ski team members, and so weireded out by the fact that my bed is not there for me to sleep in tonight. Like, I don't have a house, I don't have a bedroom. I own nothing in this town. It didn't feel like home. Most of my friends live in Kansas City now anyway. My caravan felt more like home.
