it's been almost a month and a half, but it hasn't escaped my mind yet. I thought it would fade with time. I thought wrong.
The last two weeks or so have been over-shadowed by:
--remembering at least once every couple of hours.
--flashbacks.
--nightmares.
--feeling really detached and numb.
--insomnia.
--feeling jumpy and getting scared way too easily.
--(new) headaches.
on another note, tonight is the perseid meteor shower. when i realized this, it evoked a memory deep inside of me. it must have been at least six or so years ago now, i remember mommy waking all of us sleepy kids up around 4:30 AM and then we all slowly made our way outside freezing, wrapped in blankets and sat on lawn chairs in the front lawn. that was the most falling stars i have ever seen. they came faster than you could count them. and for that brief time, our family was together. all was right with the world. memories are such a blessing. and. a curse.
i'm just stoked that i'll have something to watch while trying to fall asleep.
also. school starts a week from today. since i am student-teaching a drama 1 class and taking drama 3 i'm not to worried about this semester academic-wise. and, i am really close to only having to attend classes first semester! central office just has to approve, and then i can do whatever i want second semester.(since i only need two more credits to graduate with an advanced diploma--BOOM!) i'm thinking something like an "Into the Wild" solo voyage, but more on that later.
i hope this finds you well.
