bridging gaps

last night was really nice - well, that is, once it started. i was stuck at work 45 minutes after closing - thank god we had an excuse to leave. i hate my job. anyway, once i got out, it was very nice. catching up with old friends is a lovely past time, especially when it's insanely overdue.
i feel like a lot of things that have been burdens for so long are falling into place, becoming part of me, fixing themselves, and as a result, i feel incredibly at peace. yes, i still have a gazillion things to do and deal with, but some of the major ones that have been bothering me the most are seeming to settle. and i feel like i'm becoming more whole. reconnecting with people, connecting with someone for the first time on a serious level - it's really nice to bridge gaps that seemed too large to cross. it's giving me that confidence i need to try and conquer other seemingly impossible tasks.
