Just got back last week from a drive to and from Philly to attend the wedding of Eric & Sara. We spent more time driving than we spent in Philly, but it was a really nice getaway. The wedding was lovely, and though I didn't have a lot of time with Eric and Sara, I did get to see enough of them to hold me over until next time...and I got to catch up with lots of friends and former coworkers.
I think it's been long enough--enough time has passed--that it's not entirely crazy for me to say I kind of wish I could go back to work at TV Guide. Only it's not TV Guide anymore. But I ran into three or four people who left (some by choice, some not) and have now gone back...that's in addition to several others I already knew about, not to mention many others who've been a part of the same pattern for long as I've worked there. And no one is complaining.
I'd probably have to move back to PA, which isn't entirely out of the question on a long term basis...although it's presently not a real possibility.
Anyway, I had a great trip with Ryan, and before we even finished the grueling drive we were exitedly discussing another road trip to Ohio in the Fall. And maybe a weekend in Chicago this summer. Because there's just not much going on here.
Even though I've been back in Tulsa for over two years now, I've never really started a life here. I've been too busy running around elsewhere, mainly to Oklahoma City, on weekends. When I do have a weekend at home, it's nice to just be home. So I'm sort of in a constant state of limbo.
Ryan and I remedy the situation by daydreaming about fun road trips or about running away to start new lives in Pennsylvania...or West Virginia...or who knows where. Truth be told, I'm not sure I'd care a whole lot where I ended up as long as we were together!
