FOR THE RIDE HOME

Well honey-- if you're reading this I assume we've said goodbye yet again. I know already how I am going to feel and you're not even here yet. I always get too excited and don't think about the leaving bit until it's on top of me-- I guess that's better in some ways though. I planned a letter out though so that one should be waiting for you upon your return so look forward to that. (Aren't I great?!) I feel like I've grown up a lot-- if that's possible. I feel so secure now by myself. You're the only person that I really miss--the only person that I really think about. I think that people are starting to like me. I am surprised when people come + ask me things. You won't believe it but they come to me for help w/ the computers--You know I am a Mac expert (NOT) but I teach them. People come to me for environmental questions and help with their papers and womens issues and rights. It's nice. I like it. I am beginning to feel like I could do some important stuff at Brandeis. I even blow people away when I know all about The Jewish Stuff + I'm not Jewish. They think it's so amazing that I lived w/ the Stein's. I've been so happy about who I am. I used to get so depressed about everything that I wanted to be but wasn't and now all this has--well it's just made me happy. Do you know what I love? I love the fact that I don't have "Girly" handwriting. I am so sick of that. Anyway--enough about me. I love you so much. You are so much a part of me and I love that. I really hope that you have a good time this weekend--I want you to get the same amount of comfort from me as I do from you. Right now I'm edging my way closer and closer to you + New Haven. I am so excited to be able to show you all the things that surround me now. -- Oh and about the morp--come up with your own ORIGINAL line I mean it was pathetic enough the first time but to do it twice... [chuckle chuckle] Goodnight honey--call me to let me know that you got back okay. Have fun watching people on the train. Don't work too hard. Don't smoke w/ Carrie--well this is all just apce fillers cuz I can't really tell you what or what not to do. Just please keep me in the back of your mind + keep me updated on your life.
