***And that's as far as I got before I was distracted by work and never came back to finish. So here we go with a little game I like to call...
CATCH UP BLOGGING
So buckle up, sit back and get ready for the ride (that will be conveniently broken up into several easy-to-read installments)!

TI30 Friday, September 26, Day 26
1. At this point, I'm thankful for gasoline. Mom & Dad were traveling from NC and told me about all the places that have been out of gas along their route. It's odd to me that even though TX was took the brunt of Hurricane Ike, we still have gas unlike so many other cities that were hardly affected. At any rate, I'm glad Paris, TX still has fuel.
2. Do you ever have deep, life changing (or at least life revealing) conversations with those close to you? The ones you know you'll remember for the rest of your life (or at least the year since your memory isn't what it used to be)? Well, I had one of those w/Z last night and I'm so thankful that he and I can even have those (especially considering the hour it took place).
3. After living in this foreign land of TX for a year now, I've really learned to be grateful for the time I get to spend with people that have known me longer than just this year. I used to be so invigorated by the idea of getting to "re-create" myself but after a while, even that gets old. Since I'm able to spend time with my Mom & Dad this week, I'm so thankful for them knowing me-really knowing me-and being able to just be me. The Me I've been for 25 years. What a comforting feeling.
