i love portland

i wonder when i'm gonna start crying. i can feel it coming a few times a day now, but then I manage to turn it around.
i've never left anywhere i love, and i don't think i've ever left anywhere that loves me. this is really fucking hard.
I had an amazing time last night. it was really really perfect.

hang tight hun...

I feel your pain. Been Having some issues with change(s) myself lately. And am trying to view each change (some of them I wanna call disasters) as opportunities. And I'm trying to focus on what positive can come from each change and what I can grow,learn and get from it. Not always easy.. but it beats crying my eyes and and feeling like the universe is sticking it to me.

I'm hoping that the putting out there of energy in a positive way brings it back to me positive as well.

And in the end.. it beats the shitty feeling I get from doing it the other way.. hands down.

But don't get me wrong..missing people and places you love... sucks, but its also a good thing. Use the feelings to motivate you to write people you love and miss... tell them. It will make you and them feel connected and good.

You are so starting out on this amazing new adventure.

Big fest love to you...

Trish

dear diary, i have left people and place i LOVE more times than i care to remember.

listen to closer to fine again- i think of these words more often than i've ever cared to gayly admit before:

"and the best thing you ever done for me
is to help me take my life less seriously
it's only life afterall
yeah"

get gay. remember YOU CAN ALWAYS MOVE BACK.
nothing is set in stone, and you have control over YOUR LIFE.
come to terms with that and then you can look forward into an exciting new england life with wool sweaters, fall colors, and the butch.
the west will always be here and will always love you.
how exciting it will be next time you visit and everyone will see how much you've changed?

I sobbed when I left Ann Arbor. I managed to maintain until I said goodbye to my Kate Jones. That was the hardest. Big hugs going your way.

I know that you will experience really great and amazing things that will only make you even more wonderful!

everytime id move (and that used to be A LOT!!) i cry. i cried when i left santa fe, i cried when i left sacramento, i cried when i left virginia...i cry when i leave podunk....hell...i used to cry on tour when wed leave a city id particularly loved.....

but remember sweetness.....the place doesnt make the people. there are amazing people everywhere, and your friends there in PDX will be your friends WHEREVER you may go. and yes....you can always go back.....never say never.

every big city i lived in, i never thought id leave, but i always come back here....its home.

and when you find home....youll know.

hang in there chuck!
