hmmmmm..... My first journal entry here should probably be profound, but it's not going to be.

A week from today I'm going on a road trip to see Morrissey twice. I'm excited but I'm starting to get anxious b/c I'm going by myself. I don't mind being at the shows by myself but I'm a little nervous about driving alone. I tend to be a very anxious person, and to be honest I'm looking at the traveling part of this as something I need to do to make myself stronger. Also, I'm afraid it's going to be lonely in the hotel by myself. I'm an only child and I grew up with nervous parents who worried a lot, and I think that has a lot to do with my anxiety. Well anyway, I can't WAIT to see Moz again, so I'm hoping that maybe the excitement is going to propel me there and I'll be on such a cloud of happiness I won't have the chance to be stressed or anxious or lonely.
