The rain drops feel without mercy, creating puddles and mud...lots of mud. As I drove through the roads I knew so well, that even in the dark I knew where the water would be highest, I knew what corners I must slow down on, and I knew where to dodge so as not to hit the POT HOLE full of water, my mind began to wander. It wandered past the road ahead of me and even past the voice Frank Sinatra who was singing "fly me to the moon"

My mind wandered into next year. I wondered what roads I would be driving, what state I would be driving in, where I would be driving, and who I would be driving with...I wonder about the next four years of my life, but I no longer fear them. I have put in my time in this small town, and I would NEVER trade even one minute here, but I'm ready to move. I am ready for different places, different faces, different roads, and even different pot holes.

I am ready to leave, drive and drive and never look back, well, ok... I will check my rear view mirror every once and a while. I am ready because I've learned that I can move on and I can leave this sleepy town and I can leave the people that I am ready to let go of. But more importantly I have realized I can hold onto the people that I still need in my life. I can move on but not lose touch, I can be gone but not forgotten, and I can move leave without leaving people behind.

So I'll hop in the car, rain or shine...I may not know what road I'll be on next year, but I can assure you it will be a bumpy ride... bumpy but worthwhile

Should I do it? and if I should, will I get up the guts to do it? if I get up the guts to do it, what will you do in return?

Thursday, March 17, 2005

make yourself do this . . . you need to make yourself do this . . . focus...give it time . . . you need this . . . you can do this, you want to do this, so get over yourself and DO IT . . . no more talk, its time for action

But this is what I am afraid of, with you and me it just happened early.

When one of us grows up (in this case it was you), and goes away...we grow apart. I don't know what to say to you anymore. I don't want to bore you with my highschool stories, but I want to tell you things. I want to tell you the things that mean a lot to me, but I don't... not anymore.

You've grown up a lot, no not in age, nor in size, and the distance you put between us is much more than miles, much more than a car ride... its the silence on the phone, or the lack of the phone.

Maybe you've grown up more than I'd realized, maybe you have other people now and you don't need me, need me to take up your time, or need me to do random things with. Maybe you'v already forgotten me. Maybe you grew up and for once; no matter how mature or how serious I am I can't keep up with you. The only problem now is... maybe I wasn't ready for this

theres no maybe about it... I can't control this, no matter how hard I try.

Its already happened/happening with you....and its only a matter of time before I go away and it happens again, and again, and again, and again, and again....

I thought I had a week; now just a day.... 24 hours :-(

Thursday, March 03, 2005

its starting to show... or atleast I think I see it

She's sick of it. Sick of being unappreciated, looked down upon, not trusted, not taken seriously, unrecognized, but more than anything.... under estimated

people need to learn to have some faith

This is why I could never walk away, when its good.... its incredible, and ALL the pain feels worth it.

I walked in around 4:15, I know 3 hours early, but thats just my style. I listened to my music and put on my brace and sneakers right away. After I shot around I sat around, talked to the coaches (you made my night, you'll never know it, but it meant the world to me), the JV's (whom I adore), and the TEAM.

I found myself laying on the wooden floor. I thought about how there is NO where else in the world I would lay on a hard DUSTY wooden floor in an all white outfit, only here. This is a second home... a safe haven.

As the time began to wear down I again found myself with the feelings of butterflies in my tummy and worries in my head, we went into the locker room for pregame and the butterflies flew away... I was ready for this, WE were ready.

The ball went up into the air and I knew the writing on the board would need to come true "leave it on the court".... and WE DID. 59-50, no need to say anything else.

One game down, and bigger and better game to come, great win girlies, thanks.
