I told my parents tonight that I am not moving back to Michigan, at least not now. They were disappointed, of course, although my mom understood when I said I would be too isolated, that the only people I know there are them, my brother and my friend Jennifer. She’s excited I’m moving downtown. My dad was sad. I could tell. He got off the phone in a hurry. I hope he wasn’t too upset. He was also bummed I’m not going up there for Labor Day. Sign me up for daughter of the year. Sheesh.
I’ve been kind of down lately and I haven’t yet figured out why. I haven’t been hiding myself away, I’ve been around my friends a lot but I’m just feeling … blah. At least I can laugh at myself when I get all dramatic and melancholy, as I know this isn’t the serious stuff. It’s just Miss Monique feeling bored. I’m not the only one either — several bitches have been complaining that they are bored. I’ll be shaking up my routine soon enough, I suppose, when I move in the next several weeks …
Sweetie, if I counted the times I’ve done something that disappointed my parents, I’d lose count. You are an adult and need to make the choices you make. Michigan isn’t that far away from where you are.
Don’t worry, you are still a great daughter!

Disappointing a parent never is a good feeling. But you have to do what’s good for you! You’re probably getting a little anxious subconsciously about the move. But it will be over before you know it!

I second what Lucy said. You aren’t that far from home, and you do go an visit as often as possible. You are doing the best that you can, and you family knows that. They just miss you.
YOU RAWK!

Hey, you know that I get into those kinds of moods from time to time. It’ll pass.
And if you need someone to uhm….help you with the moving and stuff, just call me. I love moving. LOL

I hate those unexplained “Blah” feelings.

We all go through that from time to time. I have a feeling you will bounce back quickly.
