I'm home.

Last time I wrote, my dating life had gone down the drain. About the time I gave up, I reconnected with someone I had previously talked to. I had moved closer to him once I had moved to Tacoma. He has become my best friend and my boyfriend. He's truly wonderful.

Things are improving up here. I was finally able to make it home for about a week for my birthday. It was really nice to get back to Eugene to catch up with friends and family. Upon returning to Washington, I felt kind of empty. I was questioning whether or not I was supposed to be up here or not. There are a lot of things I miss about Eugene but I still can't imagine being away from Abby. I am, however, dreading when Dan, Hannah and Abby go to San Diego for 4 months. Thankfully I have Sean.

I feel like I've found my home up here in Washington. I realized that this is my home but that there was just a little something extra that had been missing. My heart wasn't completely whole. I hadn't met this man whom I get to call mine, Sean. Shortly after meeting Sean, I knew he was exactly what I had always looked for in a man. Suddenly, there he was, right in front of me. My life had changed.

My heart skipped beats and felt whole. I was overwhelmed with a sense of comfort and nervousness. He makes me feel like I'm the best thing in this world and I didn't want to do anything that could potentially mess things up. The sense of comfort has never gone away but the nervousness did. When I'm with Sean, the world feels like it's stopped. I feel safe. I feel calm. It's truly an amazing feeling. I love him so much and can't imagine what life would be like if I hadn't of met him.
