turn a corner

My Dad called me tonight - he sounded more positive and hopeful than he has in years. Lately he's taken some fairly significant steps towards getting back to where he needs to be. I really hope that he'll get things turned around for good this time, it's def. been way too long [for all of us]. It feels really good to see someone finally take the initial steps that you've been urging them towards for so long. I feel like a huge weight has been taken off of my shoulders - the kind that I'd grown accustomed to carrying to the point that it just seemed normal. Hopefully we can all do our part to make sure that he continues to build upon this small [yet encouraging] base that Dad's built for himself.

Nice m-day: got some hard intervals in at Grady - even got complimented on my speed by some black track dudes, had lunch & went to the jazz fest @ piedmont w/ Ashley [I love Atlanta], got a decent amount of rock corps promo done for cornerstone, and watched 'one flew over the cuckoos nest' for the first time [again] - Nicholson is the man

So I just found out that my 2nd ex-girlfriend is engaged to be married this summer. Wow, it's crazy how things happen and change so fast. It's also so weird how different people are depending on who they are dating at the time. It sounds like her ideal life though, so that's great. It's not a sad thing or anything, it's just crazy. Ha, I'm not sure what it is about dating me that makes a girl want to get married to the next guy she meets... that's all

this is my home

I've said it before and I'll say it again: atlanta is awesome. I spent the day [from nine to seven] at the inman park festival today...'working'. It's so cool so see such a diverse group of people come together and have some fun. The parade was great, everything from old people dressed up and dancing like they're on bad acid to grady high school's band doing the whole 'black band' drumcore [or whatever the name of that movie was] thing. Of course my signature luck had my allergies kicking my ass all day but I didn't let it ruin the fun too much. After about twenty minutes of lying in bed and a double shot of benadryl [I know it's a histamine blocker] and some rockstar [to counteract the anti-histamine side effect] it's time for dinner and whatever I can get into tonight. All this on less than four hours of sleep. I'm sitting at 44 hours worked this week, not even counting being at the festival tomorrow from 11-7. You know you...
