I had to leave NJ today...my home. It is sad. As I drove over the 9th street bridge I began to cry, already homesick. I feel like I belong here. Not just because I love it here but because I can drive over the bridge and know that is where the crash scene was filmed for "Eddy and the Cruisers". My favorite restaurant, The Crab Trap. I know where Tony Marts used to be and that the 60 min wait at Smitty's is worth it. I know 3 different ways to drive yo Philly and how to get from Cape May to Atlantic City without using the parkway. I can drive by my childhood home and my friends old apt, so many great memories (the apt stories are another blog)
I am also leaving behind my oldest friend, my craziest friend, my God daughter and a ton of family. It does not help that Olivia is also crying she wants to stay.
Only 1 other place I have felt lime I belonged, Savannah GA
So for now I will cry, put my "Jersey Girl" sticker on my car and make a 2 year plan.
