Happy Anniversary

Jamie + North Carolina.

*Three Years.

I felt a bit disoriented when I first moved down here. I promised myself three years. Three years to connect.

*I flew in on the night of 3.5.06, actually. I remember when someone on the plane asked me if I was from NYC or NC I burst into tears. Because at that moment in time the answer felt like neither.

It was Oscar Night. There was no food in my apartment except some mints. I had mints for dinner. I remember when someone on the plane asked me where I was from I burst into tears. Because at that moment in time I was no longer from or in New York, but not yet in NC.
