Sometimes I forget that I now live in Colorado and that I will never be back in my old house in Virginia. My dad got a job offer in Denver and my family will soon be out here too.  When I leave for home, it won’t really be home.  Sure the people I love will be there, some of them.  My dog recently died, it hasn’t hit yet, but when I go back “home” it will.  
  Everyone’s so excited to go home and see all their friends that they weren’t able to see in a long time.  I won’t have that…yet another reason for it to not seem like home.  I’ll have to make a special trip to see them, a special trip like that cost money.  Neither the kind I, nor my parents have.  I loved drama when I was in high school.  I wish I could go see Stone Bridges plays so bad.
   But in spite of all this I have never been happier in all my life.  All the time I lived in Ashburn I talked about how I didn’t like it, and how I couldn’t wait to get out.  When it came time to leave, I didn’t want to.  Now that I’m out I can really see how suffocated I was by Ashburn.   Life is good for once...
To my Ashburn homies I love you and miss you all.  I wish you could be my Gunnison homies too.
