twenty-two more days

No calls, no texts, no messages on Facebook from him today yet . . . I went over to B's house today after my eye exam and believe or not he wants to hook up with me. Are you kidding me? I did have a thing for him but I obviously don't anymore. I'm sorry but I just had to walk away from that, I can't handle him especially now. I just don't understand why after not taking the chance the first time, he would ask me for one more chance now that I am leaving to Duluth in 22 days. No lie, he looks good and I wouldn't give that piece of hunk up but I have my heart and mind set on some other guy. And speaking of that other guy, I am really worried about him. I want to call and see how he is doing but space is what he asked for so I will respect that and listen to him.
I drove around town today wondering what else is going to happen in 22 days. What else will I stumble on before I leave town and don't come back until Christmas break. No lie, I am going to miss the stinking city. I am going to miss sweet-n-sour Houachoua. I am going to miss my overprotective, cheap mother. I am going to miss my overly energized grandmother. I am going to miss my dad and our silent conversations. I am going to miss my sisters Padee, Villai, and Vaneda. I am going to miss my baseball buddy of a brother Chiangkhai or whatever he wants to be called these days. I am going to miss the house that sits in the middle of the best and worst neighborhood ever. I am going to miss my lilac colored walls and my desk which I built with my own hands. I am going to miss driving to Cub Foods via Edgerton and County Rd B. I am going to miss working at Cub Foods, believe it or not. I am going to miss out on the last days of the Minnesota State Fair. I am going to miss driving for sure cause my mother thinks that overdramatic hills in Duluth are too much of a danger for me during the winter and I won't disagree with her on that. I am going to especially miss my late night trips back from Stillwater. But for now let's just there are a lot of things I am going to miss . . . especially him, Kathy, Hoosier, Henry, and Linus.
But time will change things and it will all be different.
