I'm on my way...

Well, 2 weeks until spring break, and even though this semester has not been anywhere near the agonizing torture that last semester was, I still feel like a break would do me well. Which of course it will, that's what breaks are meant to do. So I'm going on tour this spring break. Actually it's only a 2 city tour, but I think any more than 1 constitutes a tour. First Stop- DENVER!!!!! I'm sooo happy to be going home, I miss my family and my dogs and my state. So after a wonderful 6 days in Denver, it's off to Corpus Christi, Texas. What, you ask, is in Corpus Christi? Well, the beach for one, and in 2 weeks, Me! But Gillian, who are you staying with? How are you getting there? I'm flying there and I will be staying with one of my favorite people...me. That's right folks, I am going on my first trip to another state by myself. I've done lots of things by myself before, gone to movies, gone to dinner, stayed home alone, lots of things, but never in the history of me have I taken a real trip all by my lonesome. I don't think I'm going to be lonesome at all. In fact, I'm really looking forward to it. Just relaxing on the beach with my thoughts and my books. Yeah, most people think I'm crazy by this point, but it's all right, I'm still going to have fun. I like doing these sorts of things, even when I was younger, doing things independently made me feel like an adult, like I was grown up and taking care of myself. I suppose I always equated adulthood with independence. Was that weird? Well weird or not, it's what I do. So there you have it, people always tell me I'm really independent, I suppose so, I just don't want to have to rely on someone else for everything. Granted, sometimes my independence can be frustrating to other people, If I ever end up dating someone, he's definitely going to have to learn to put up with me wanting to do everything for myself, but no sense in putting the cart before the horse, I'll just continue my independence until someone gives me a valid reason to change. Anyway, if anyone wants to find me March 17 - 19 I won't be around, unless you happen to be at the Quality Inn and Suites in Corpus Christi Texas, in which case, I'll be the one sitting on the beach all day reading books about my favorite Architects and other various subjects...Ahhh, I can almost feel the sun already. Sigh, 2 more weeks.
