Travelling...

Well, darlings, it's Monday night. Ok. Technically, Tuesday morning.

The last night in Cali, and I'm already missing it. I really don't want to go back. I know I haven't a right to complain about home. But right now, I like being around people. I like having friends I can physically reach out and snuggle.

So it's not just LA.

I needed this, though. Desperately. The lack of stress (even with the cold) has been so beneficial to my mental health. I no longer think I could down half bottles of alcohol right before bed.

Well. I could if I wanted.

But I don't.

Being away--completely--from home has relaxed me. I'm not zen. But I'm also not an emotional wreck who feels like curling up and never facing the world again.

It's been a hell of a weekend. Maybe when I'm feeling less pleasantly buzzed, I'll go over it.
