DIA has free wifi!!!!!!

So excited that DIA has free wifi now, it surely helps to pass the time sitting here in the lonely C concourse. I'm about to board for my second of four flights to Minneapolis, it looks as if there are going to be a lot of people on this flight, many youngsters as well, which could be bad. Right now I'm listening to a van mix that I made a while back, rocking out to One More Time daft punk. I'm definitely getting a few stares about the volume of my music, but they chose to sit by me. When I got here I was the only one in my row save for a couple of birds flying around inside.

I am so ready to be heading home to Marquette, break has been exceptionally long it seems. I know that I wasn't home very long or very often, but a little is all I need these days. I felt bad, M and D were constantly around to catch up and spend time with me, but I just wanted to hang out by myself in the house or town. I don't quite know what's wrong with me that I spend so much time missing my family and home and Colorado in general and then every odd moment I just wish I was in Marquette with my team. I guess that could be normal, seeing as the team is like my second family. I've really distanced myself from the goings on in Durango, have moved on in a bad way I think. I feel that it's healthy to start up a new life where you live, but I seriously hardly wanted to even go skiing with the DNSC. It's like I'm so dependent on my current life that going home makes me a loner or something.

On a brighter note :) I'm super excited for the coming semester and year. Can you believe that it's going to be 2009 in a week's time? We're fast approaching the new decade, makes me feel old. I so clearly remember Y2K and how disappointed I was that we didn't have to/get to camp out in the living room making Spaghetti-O's on the wood stove. We've come so far in the past ten years. I'm living in Michigan, Megan's in grad school, and M and D are doing better than ever. Things I'm excited for in the new year: the race season, the new administration starting the 21st, finishing up my junior year at NMU, getting a good job this summer, and other things including the growing importance that I place upon my relationships and friendships.

Aaaaahhhh I can't wait to get back to my little home and little team. I wish Tim was in Marquette now, but soon enough I guess. Come to think of it, I wish Megan was in Marquette as well.

Alright, it's about time for me to board so I'm going to have to sign off now, see you on the other side!
