Home...?

Well, after several hectic weeks of wrapping things up and packing, I finally left the only state I've ever lived in and headed down to Cowboy territory, or is it Sooner? I guess that would depend on who you are talking to:-) It was really sureal driving into Oklahoma. It finally hit me that I had reached that ineveitable stage of life--adulthood. It's a weird feeling to realize that you have to take care of yourself now and that you are pretty much alone. I was expecting to feel like more of an outsider- well, at least a non-Oklahoman. I was expecting to stick out like a sore thumb with my "Yankee" accent, but Tulsa just seems like a hotter version of Indiana. It's really nice. After I had settled in a bit at my apartment, I hung out with Uncle Nathan and Aunt Kayse. I love my apartment. It's a half-basement apartment and all tiled. I really appreciate that because I won't have to worry about cleaning carpets. Today, I mostly unpacked. It's truly amazing how much junk I've managed to accumulate. I makes me think of just how materialistic I tend to be at times and it was a good reminder that I don't really need any of it. Speaking of material things, Nate and Kayse bought a new house. It's pretty amazing and they got a good deal on it. I have a feeling that I will be doing some housesitting in the near future and they are getting the urge to get out town. It should be interesting. I look forward to keeping everyone posted. Well, until another day, adieu!
