Happy R-day class of 2009.
Today I start my drive to AZ for my MIOBC course. My plan is to get there friday, move in over the weekend, and then next Tuesday (or is it Wednesday?) I report for my OBC course.
I finally got around to making a Joe Bear graduation episode. It's not online yet, and I didn't send it out to anyone, but it'll be avaliable sometime.

Being home is nice for the first few days, but then it starts to get rather boring. The first few days I managed to stay busy during the daytime and not spend time sitting in front of the TV. Then I went to CO and when I got back my motivation to do stuff around the house, as well as my knowing how to do things around the house, faded and as a result my time in front of the TV increased. I've made it a point to spend an hour each day working out, but besides that I feel like I waste most of my day.
Sometimes I feel like I come back and don't know my family very well anymore, or anyone around here for that matter. You'd think that I'd open up and be more talkative around my family, seeing how I've known them my whole life, but I find myself talking even less when we're all together. I don't know the same people as my sisters, my stories don't come out as funny as my sister's, and I basically just feel really young around them and almost like an outsider. Although I have friends who are their age, to me my sisters still seem light years ahead of me. Plus, I it feels wrong that I say this, but the bonding they have as a result of having had cancer is something I can't relate to, not that I wish I could, but it's just one more thing seems to seperate me from them.
It'd be nice to see my friends from middle school and high school while I'm home....if I could skip the getting to know each other again part and jump right back into the friendship. That and I'm having trouble actually locating my friends. I'm not sure where they live of what their phone numbers are, and my few attempts at trying to get ahold of some of them haven't been successfull. I haven't put that much effort into the attempts though. Basically I've been too lazy to put the effort into trying to renew friendships and finding common ground again.
Sorry, this was a rather depressing post. Perhaps I just need sleep and it'll all be better in the morning. I wish I could go to FL and see my friends again. Oh well. AZ in a week.

Rocky Mountain High (RMH) was awesome. I spent a week in CO mountain biking, rock climbing, rappeling, doing a four day backpacking treck up to MT Antero ( 14,269 feet), white water rafting, spending time with God, and hanging out with some of the coolest people in the world. I am so glad that I went on the trip.
