Oddly enough, I was back in DC the same day on which I moved a year ago. And I will say that there is something to the phrase, "you can't go home again." While I spent 10 formulative years in the District, I didn't feel like I was home while I was there last week. Yes, it was great to see Aaron, Marc, Keith, Serhiy, Kelly, Eric, Jon, Derrick, Andrew, and even my best buddy Jeff - even if all too briefly. And it was also great to finally meet these guys face to face after a year of emails back and forth. But as much as I cherished being with these people whom I love, I really just couldn't wait to get home. Seven days is a long time to be away from your life.

And my heart - my new, rejuvenated, ready for more life heart - is in Chicago.
Dop, I had no idea you have only lived in Chicago for a year. Congrats on your year. I also just celebrated my one year anniversary in Chicago on the 31st.
ReplyDeleteFrom an artist perspective D.C. was great just because of all the art and the fact that the museums were FREE! I'm going back for a visit in December. Nawlins is just a short visit until I decide where the hell I'm going next.
ReplyDeleteyea! dop in chicago.
ReplyDeleteWell, it's nice that Chicago feels like HOME. And its nice you made it back to the DC area to see friends.
