Tour was fantastic. Sure, it had its lows, but what experience doesn't? I met/reconnected with some really fantastic people who I know will be in my life from now on. I had a tourmance that was supposed to be easy, breezy and simple, and then we went and cared a lot about each other so it's complicated now. But complicated in a good way, I think. :) I smile a lot. Not that I didn't smile a lot before; anyone who knows me knows that I'm a generally happy, smiley person. But it's a different kind of smile, and I like it. A lot. Arg. Stupid New Jersey. But that's its own blog.
I had a quick and wonderful Christmas in Des Moines, then I packed up all (and I mean ALL) of my shit in boxes and bags and containers, shoved it onto a 10ft Uhaul, and headed to Chi-town with my parents. After a great dinner and a tearful (and I mean TEARFUL) goodbye with my parents, I finished unpacking my life into my new life's apartment, and went out for some celebratory drinks with friends. And I've been here ever since! I spent my first week applying and applying and applying, and my second week doing some interviews, and I now have a job (albeit TEMPORARY) through my temp agency that starts on Monday. I'm starting to really settle into life here, and I like it. I joined a gym so I can get my life back in order in that department, and I'm really excited to see where life takes me. I kind of can't wait and am petrified to start auditioning again, but that's really why I'm here.
And that brings me to now. Still thrilled. Still happy. Still full to the brim with anticipation of future events, jobs, and surprises. Still thinking about a certain someone who piqued my fancy. Still loving my friends like my second family. Still loving my family, distance and all. Still dreaming. Still driving. Still here.
And away we go.
