Pack Pack Pack it up.

Today the times started that one doesn't really think about when making a big decision like I did in moving. The idea of saying goodbye seems so far away and off in the distance that it's not even thought about. Lets face it goodbye's suck!

I started my day by finishing packing up my apartment from KC MO! My first home outside of the Ville'. I had to say goodbye to Ping Pong, Chels, and my roomie Leigh. I've had many good memories and experiences in KC. Some not so great and helped me grow and learn to make me the person I am today. For some reason I still love KC even thought I held 3 jobs in less than 6 months of being there....a sign....no. No sign just life.

Today was also a very tough day in the fact that I had to say goodbye to my pops. Yea thats never easy and always puts that lump in my throat. It's just not an easy thing to do. Goodbye's are simply hard.

So I'm pack pack packin' it up and setting myself up for the next adventure in life. I'm a small town midwest man that moved to the concrete jungle of Kansas City Missouri and soon to be thrown into Texas down south. The closest thing I ever did to being a cowboy was over hear my brothers old Garth Brooks tapes and wear sweat pants w/ my fake snake skin boots. And yes, they were tucked into the boots....I was a hip youngster. 

My luggage will be packed with more than just clothes, shoes, and towles. I am taking everything that I have learned from every experience and who I am as a person and refusing to be anything but, myself. Now this doesn't mean I am shutting off my mind to new experiences or things just that I will not loose track of who I am and will simply make sure that I stay true to myself as I formally meet Texas!
