ive been traveling back and forth between pittsburgh and indiana more than usual over the last six months. or maybe the time in between just goes faster now. i know i talk about this a lot, but i really love my home. maybe it's because i'm not used to really liking going home... meadville was fine but it always reminded me of so much negativity (mostly my own fault). pittsburgh has always been the place i would rather be-- i used to cry every time we left to go back to meadville. dramatic, i know. and i'm bored here sometimes too, but i don't mind. it's beautiful and my mum is beautiful and my family is beautiful. not perfect, but beautiful. even in the ways we argue-- it's ok now and we know that we'll stick it out. my extended family has always been huge, and i've been as close to my cousins as i was to my siblings... but lately, now that both my brothers and i are in different states, when we are all together it's a much closer time. more cohesion. we spend more time together than splitting up to see different cousins. i'm starting to get a sense of why many grown-up siblings stay close, but it's a different dynamic with just the three of us than watching my mum and her seven siblings staying close. that's more like a tribe haha.
apologies for spouting about home again. it all comes back when i'm here, and i have time to think about it.
both of my brothers are taller than me now. and we all have kind of the same sense of humor. at least when we're together. they're funny. but don't tell them i told them that-- they'll think i like them ; )
