It was my birthday today. I turned 25 years old. Not sure what that means, but I had a great day. I've also had the most amazing time hanging out with friends and family the past 9 days. It's all of them, and all of the places that I love that I miss when I'm gone. If only the story that is my life took place out West. Then I would be content with sticking around, having fun with my friends. But these people that I so honestly love and adore, live in a place I no longer strive for. If this wasn't home, it would be somewhere else. But as it turns out, Indy is my home base. I'll have new homes, new places, new futures, but I've never understood the term home, as well as I have this past week.

To all of you who have shared your time with me, and who have laughed, cried, farted, and shared with me their personal and entire lives.. I thank you. You mean the world to me.

Goodnight.. as I turn 25 and 1 day old.
