independence: Day Two

He's only been gone for (less than) 24 hours and I'm already being depressed and silly. I've sent him two sappy emails and later wrote a mean letter which I immediately deleted. I've got to get through 14 more nights without him. Pathetic. I'm reverting to those things which kept me happy before we got together: beer, shopping, vibrator

I hope it's fine that I decided to add you. I'm from Raleigh, too, though I am currently a Chicagoland resident & film student.

Absolutely, thanks. I'll add you too, as your film student rants look to be enjoyable reading. I love the story about the ACTOR asking you to find a good church. Divine inspiration! That is what we as artists need, guilt and self-deprecation.

As for Raleigh, many leave and many come back. I'm currently plotting my next escape...

I've thought about making a film in Raleigh just because it would be cheaper than here. (No unions, tax-breaks for productions, and a kickback from NC) I'm just worried about getting sucked into that hole again.

hear ya

If by "hole" you mean "deep black hole, with a gravitational pull so strong you can only escape using extreme sobriety, unwavering determination and friends in other cities who constantly remind you of life outside the hole," you are right to worry. Being a hole-dweller myself, it's not so bad
