It really sucks hugging people goodbye; it sucks worse shaking their hands.  I am met with repeated assurances that they’ll see me again, and that’s hopefully true, assuming I do indeed make it back to Chicago by September.  (Cross your fingers.)  But it won’t be the same.  When am I ever again going to stay up until 4 AM discussing whether or not Snakes on a Plane was actually a good movie, whether or not God inhabits the wall in front of me, whether or not art has merit, or just how stupid love is - sometimes all in the same conversation?  My understanding is that that stuff quits after college.  Every day, I find something else which I didn’t take enough advantage of.  I’m not sure how I could have - it isn’t like I wasted tons of time - but it’s still hard, you know?

Sleep now.  Tomorrow’s going to be a tough one.
