Tomorrow, and tomorrow, and tomorrow

Today is my last full day in Shepherdstown. Tomorrow we load up and drive down to Beckley for two nights, and then on to Parkersburg Saturday for Seth and Rachel's wedding. And then Sunday we begin the long drive to the Sooner State, stopping somewhere in Missouri Sunday night and finishing the drive Monday morning.

I'm still having mixed feelings. It's definitely started to be sadder for me now that it's about to happen. I've been preparing for this move for months, but it has snuck up on me.

Last night I hung out with Jeremy, and we had a good time. It was the first time in quite a while that it was just the two of us sitting around talking. On my drive home from Harper's Ferry last night, I felt truly sad about what I'm leaving behind. But I'm still excited for what is to come, and I feel that this is the right thing for me.

I got my (very) tentative teaching schedule the other day, and I'm starting to get excited about starting school again. Grad school is a pain in the ass, but it is also a lot of fun. A lot of work, but a good community of people with common goals and interests.

Well, that's about all for now. The next post I make I will likely be in Oklahoma. Unless, of course, our cheap motel in Missouri has wireless internet.
