Adam has arrived safely. He flew into Indy last night around 7:40, I picked him up around 7:55, and after a stop for food we arrived back up at Taylor around 9:35. In the car on the way back here from the airport, we realized that it’s been 11 months since we saw eachother last, but now that we’re together it feels like it was just last month. It’s incredible how good friendships aren’t lost due to time and distance. Out of sight out of mind is not always the case after all…

It’s really cool to have him around, and to let him see where I’ve been living for the past 4 years. It’s crazy because he was denied leave two times before finally having it approved on the third try. So at first it was looking like he was coming, then it was looking like he wasn’t. When he finally told me he had gotten leave, I still didn’t get my hopes too high - I was waiting till he stepped off the plane and was here in Indiana.

Well, now he’s here. And the rest of my family / friends will get here on Friday. It’s an exciting time, and yet I’m still sad about leaving this place.

And the rest of you, I CAN’T WAIT for you to get here!
