Happy Easter:
So for the first time in my twenty and change years of existence, I wasn't with my family for the holiday. No traditional early morning church service fallowed by oodles of family time. Instead, I slept in late, watched a movie with the other floor members who weren't with their families, hung out with my boy, and hung out with friends. Instead of the traditional Easter dinner, I ate Chinese food. (which coincidentally is not agreeing with me).
Overall, I enjoyed the day. I wasn't nearly as lonely as I thought I would be. I was lonely Friday after everyone left, and even a little bit on Saturday, but today I was just fine. Maybe I'd made peace with not being with my family for the holiday. Or maybe I was just too tired and flippy outey to give a damn.
That being said, I did something I don't normally do today. I vented. I sat down and talked to people about what's been bothering me. Maybe I'm getting better at this being open thing. More likely, I just legitimately have no idea what I'm supposed to do about all this. I need someone to bounce ideas off of. I choose my best options and went with it. Of course, they turned out to have no better idea than I do (which is to say, no ideas at all) but still, it's kind of nice to know that someone knows what's bothering me. I might bounce ideas off a few more people and let time tell how I should handle the issue. I've been tempted more than once to call my dad. I might before the week is up.

"Do what you feel in your heart to be right- for you'll be criticized anyway. You'll be damned if you do, and damned if you don't."
