Erin The Great

I’ve recently been preparing for my journey back to the mother land of Oregon… Oh beautiful Oregon, how I love thee and miss thee. I miss your lush greenery and ever flowing rivers. Mostly I miss my friends and family that I haven’t seen in quite some time.

Right now I’m just counting down the minutes until I get to hop on a plane and get the heck out of this place. Don’t get me wrong I enjoy my current environment but I’m over the moon about going back to my hippie-infested Oregon. You see I’ve been awfully home sick since my 2-day venture of picking up my car clear back in November. Usually signs of my homesick emerge a little more subtlety then they’ve recently been appearing. I was completely content belting out Carly Simon’s ‘Nobody does it better’ at the top of my lungs without any regard to who was watching. This actually isn’t that out of character for me but the tearing up while singing most definitely is. So is tearing up when I was reading some ‘You know you’re from the NorthWest if…’ jokes. So, in less then 24 hours I will be safely back home for a brief but much needed visit.
