  • It is true- distance makes the heart grow fonder. You just hope that it is reciprocated however. I think this is the case right now, the reciprocal nature... But I can't help but to second guess motives. It all gets back to truly being vulnerable and letting my guard down. I just don't want to get hurt again. But I digress... Chicago has been a wonderful and amazing time but I'm anxious to get back to DC for several reasons. For one, I am curious to see whether it feels as homelike as it should, or if I will feel antsy and long for more "big city" time.

    While here in Chicago, I have been charmed and delighted by what a lovely, big city it is. I love that I walk down the street and have massive concrete structures or endless glass windows towering over me as if the buildings could swallow me whole. I love the feeling of anonymity and insignificance which in turn empowers me to feel as if I could conquer the world and unleash my potential upon it. You don't really ever get that in DC...

    More on all of this later. Back to the shenanigans. Pictures of this lovely weekend and a detailed recap to follow in the coming days.

    Signing off and out.
