Who would have thought...

Something so simple, like playing in the mountains, yelling things that I needed SO bad to get off my chest, would make me feel...free.

I have felt for a long time like I lost myself, warped all that made me who I was, to fit other things and last turn...just messing around for no other reason then to enjoy myself...I felt like Cody again.

It's been a long road, always trying to go back and be who I was, but he made me realize that trying to go back was what was messing me up. It's not like that Cody was gone...I just had to find him again in who I am now. Shed all the little pieces that have been chipped away, chipped into what I was, and rebuild it with help from those who care, who remind me who I was, and who I still am under all the dust.

Fall Fest is coming up, it has always been my favorite festival. I need to spend some time with the candyball man, and refill my stash as I always get low around this time. I'm looking forward to taking part in events again, to laughing and joking with friends and meeting new folks...I've been hiding away long enough and this is a good time to stop all of that. So bring on the events, the costumes, the jokes and the CANDY!
