How did I ever get so obsessed with a place that it hurts inside to think about it?

It seems so hard to find beauty here on a daily basis. I could drive out to the mountains or the ocean, but that's hours away. But back "home," there was beauty just walking to work.

I miss the campus. I miss the great record stores, book stores, coffee shops, beer stores. I miss the U art museum, the river. Everything. All my favorite places.

God, I'm sad. Somebody call a waaa-mbulance.

I'm in the same boat. I go back to my home town and I can't remember why I felt the need to get away so bad. I've got to get back there.
