There was a time I wrote about myself. I didn't talk about music or politics, just what I felt. I am doing that again. I could use a little catharsis.
Well were to start? I am getting promoted. It's not a huge step, but it works out to an extra $2,000/year and a week more vacation. For a long time I felt like I was moving sideways, but now it is clear I am moving forward. That's a feeling I haven't had in a while. I've also seen a lot of personal growth, too.
In a lot of ways getting frostbite was one of the best things ever to happen to me. It gave me time to think, where I was headed and what I was doing. I didn't like it, so I changed. I made a lot of small steps, but the biggest parts still elude me. It'll happen. I know it.
I am still waiting to hear about my house next year, but I am hopeful. This town is becoming a place I can stay awhile. The more I hear about California, the more I think I was distracted by the shiny and fun. I am still not sure if Iowa City is where I belong, but I don't need to get away. I like that. I just wish my best friends were here, I'd even take them being on the same continent.
