Journeys.

Does anyone still even use Blogger anymore?

I looked at the blog links of college friends and no one has posted since 2013....

Life has been rough. My boyfriend of 11 years (!!) and I broken up mid June, a few days after his birthday. A few weeks later I found out he and our housemate were having a thing and I decided to move out. I've been living with my parents for a month (?) now and well, each day is a struggle. A struggle to remind myself I'm NOT in highschool. A struggle to fight the emotions that make my want to break down in tears as I miss my old life. Simple things like knowing where a tool is or a costume piece. Seeing them post on Instagram (I unfriended him on Facebook and he in turn blocked me) about their adventures together and feeling like he's taking her all the places we used to go, all the while allowing his friends to call me a cunt... Well, is time I did some living too!

I've always had a fantasy of going on a road trip across the US, seeing the National Parks and pieces of American culture that are purely regional. It was a dream my ex and I shared. Once. But I have the best adventure buddy I could ever hope for: my Shepsky Indiana!

I decided I'd plan a road trip myself.
