i’m sitting in my sister’s room in ulc, a dorm that i lived in three different times when i was a student. it only feels strange when i stop to think about where i am, and remember that this morning i was in my own apartment in houston. sometime in my first few years of college, i developed an uncanny ability to almost instantly adjust to being, well, wherever i am. it is an especially pronounced phenomenon when i visit a familiar place, like atlanta, like georgia tech. i forget to remember that i ever left.
the football game was fun, and georgia tech thoroughly beat vanderbilt, 45-3. it was great to see alex and iffy and the old harris crowd; i really miss them sometimes. with them, there is never a dull moment, and at the end of the day my stomach always aches from laughing so hard. they spoke of coming to houston some weekend, and then meeting up with leila and brian to just have a grand old time. i’ll look forward to that, whenever it may happen.
weird. sitting here in katie’s room, i suddenly feel reminiscent of having a dorm room. in fact, i almost miss it. cramming all my things into a tiny space, feeling comfy and cozy and closed in, surrounded by everything you feel is important. almost miss it.
i love my apartment.
i had an argument with a friend last night that is still bothering me.
tomorrow i head south to macon for the third annual chris baucom labor day bash.
