driving in your car, i never, never want to go home.

that was everything it should have been.

so, i'm in love with a boy named patrick magee. patrick makes puppets. he makes worlds happen with his hands and his body and his voice. he makes masks, too. and he's funnier and smarter than you. i told him i wish that i could hang out with him every day, and it was true. i also told him that i name drop his future self, and that is true, too. patrick magee, works for jim henson in a few years? worked on that movie you'll really like when you are older? yeah. i know him.

you see, i love my house. we have this amazing heart connection and stomach connection. my house is my tribe. but i've missed hanging out with the smart kids. i've not been challenged in conversation. granted, this was not intellectually intimidating the way pittsburgh can be sometimes. but it was quick. the threat of it was just under the surface. it caught all of the jokes, and the jokes, for the first time in ages, were new.

oh. this feels like home.

yes. i'm home.
