The days are kinda fading together at this point. Waking up earlier than normal. Packing all day and all night. Painting over the masterpiece that I painted in my room in July of 2005.
It's kind of a weird thing to do/feel. Its like you are burying a loved one. I just want to walk up to the wall and through a red rose on it or something before the dirt (in this case, white paint) gets thrown on it.
Maybe that's a little morbid hahaa
But it is like letting go of the past. Itemizing everything you have collected over 6+ years.
Like a dictator, deciding who stays and who goes. Trashing nearly everything that isn't immediately needed.
It's a release.
A release from everything that was before.
This weekend will also be an excellent release. Nothing in my apartment to worry about. Surrounded by good friends who are flying in from all over the place to spend the "Final USA Days" with me. Then one last go round for The Taxidermists!!! I still really cant believe we are attempting this. It's going to be hilariously bad/awesomely good.
Yet another way of turning the page on what WAS.
And then it's family time followed by flying "home".
Doha in 8 days.
It's really real.
