Leave for the East Coast in less than 2 weeks! I'm really excited and happy for them cuz its a great oppurtunity for them. But at the same time it'll be hard for me. cuz just being a 1.5 hour flight/13 hr drive away from them is the farthest apart we'v ever been. if i wanted to just take a weekend off from school/work i could. i could have a solid 4 days to hang. but now that they'll be across the states, it knocks it down to like a solid 2 days, cuz the other 2 days will now be traveling time.
The upside (which there are many) is that since they'll be across the states, it'll be nice to visit the other side. I'v only been to the East Coast once, n that was to visit my sister in South Carolina. It'll be cool to visit D.C. n Maryland n stuff. I would hav a place to stay too. Plus, being out there, my BFF n the wife can make some nice money. This in turn will allow them to finish up college (Chop! Chop! I know ur reading this!) Finishing college will then in turn FIN-FRICKIN-LY put them in a place where they can start a family. Which is what i'v been waiting for!! Com'on now, i'v been naggin n naggin like a desperate housewife to be a first time uncle [on Monica's side] for like a year or so now! (since she doesnt have any brothers, someone hasta step up.)
OH THE TIME CHANGE! now we can't stay up as late n talk crap. I just havta tell myself its only a few months, i've gone longer than a few months without being able to visit. so this shouldn't be hard. on the bright side, i won't havta go a few months, cuz i can visit them in the middle of it. So really, i guess i'm only freakin out cuz i won't be able to spend as much time with them as i usually can. Well, there is another, n that is that i'm afraid that when they get out there, they'll end up liking it so much that they won't wanna move back. Maybe i'm paranoid, maybe i'm not, iono. This is just whats runnin thru my mind.
Back to what i was sayin. I won't be able to visit for as long as normal and this is a good thing for them and i'll get a neice/nephew outta it. (I don't wanna hear any infertile jokes from u! u know who u r!) Yeah, i'm gonna be a lil sad to know they'r not as close to me anymore, location wise, but u all know what i keep tellin myself... (i've said it over n over like 3 dozen times)
There's only one thing i ask when they get back. All they havta do is use my name [somewhere in the name] when u guys finally have ur 5 kids. (ya, 3 boys n 2 girls) i've already planned it. So get back soon! N for heavens sake drive safe! i know how u kids like to do jello shots from each others torso's whilst driving!
