Something funny happened earlier today that on some other day may have upset me but, on this day, it simply made me laugh.
I am currently in the process of trying to figure out how in the world to get about one whole extra suitcase worth of Marc clothes that I didn't start summer with from NYC to Savannah in a few weeks when I go home. (I know, I know-- such a pesky problem to have.)
Then the website asked me to enter my address. And for about .8 seconds, I had to think about where I lived. Then, it hit me. Duh. I live at 1**7 Port Carlow! And I proceeded to fill in the rest of the registration with my address.
And when a message popped up that said that the shipping info didn't match the billing info, I felt like a doof. Right. No. I haven't lived their since probably... 5th grade. Nice one, Julia.
Let's try that again: 1**1 Port Carlow.
Again. NOPE. It's been a solid 6 years since we moved from that one.
So then, when that slight mind lapse ended, I started to type in my real address, 3** Pirate Road.
Except...wait... I haven't lived there in 3 years.
(What's scary is that this story is by not even 1% an exaggeration.)
Then, totally perplexed by my own life, I had to literally close my eyes, and sit for about 5 seconds to recall the address that I currently call home. The irony in this, of course, is that in the past year and a half that my parents have lived at that house, I have spent maybe about 4 months there in total. And by this time next year, they won't even be living there either!
By the way, the home that I was starting to develop in Savannah since last September also doesn't count anymore because I moved out of that sucker too. Ha!
So, even though I am technically living in 3 different homes in 3 different states in 3 different corners of the country, I still have to think for a second when I have to write down my own address.
What does this mean?
And how much therapy am I going to need in 15 years because of it?
Oh, geez.
Too much to think about right now.
Nothing a little pie can't fix.

I have a great therapist to recommend.
I feel you dude! No home is such a rough thing to deal with...I haven't made it out the other side yet, but I hear that when you get a home, it's worth the wait, cause you took the time to define it and find it for yourself.
