firsts.

celebrated my first birthday without my dad. he loved birthdays, and pretty much any special occasion. around this time of year, he would be asking me every other day.. "what'd ya get me for christmas? can i open it now?" ...i miss him.

it was a really beautiful weekend. i felt very loved. got a handful of starbucks gift cards, some very pretty rings, lovely winter boots, and a lot of warm hugs. shared some laughs, learned to appreciate the art of drinking hot tea, swapped getting-out-of-speeding-ticket stories, solved some "who-dun-it" mysteries, spent time with old friends and made some new ones.

the trees are changing colors and the wind is blowing. it's almost as if change is tangible, in the form of the weather. things are going to be really different. that's what the wind is saying. it's gonna be tough, but still good.

just very different.
