1. To have my first professional show, which opens in just under two weeks now (no, I’m not freaking out at all; such an accusation would be a blatant lie) to be successful. I just need to decide exactly how I’m going to personally measure and evaluate said success.
2. Have a dinner with my fathers and Quinn and have the night not result in Quinn being a nun or deep secrets being revealed or near-breakups happen. Just a normal dinner where Dads tell embarrassing stories and Quinn can laugh at me and I can smile knowing that she’ll make it up to me later.
3. Reestablish my friendship with Tyler. We had a… falling out a few months back but he’s slowly working his way back into the fold of our mutual friends and we’ve been at the same gatherings now a couple times. And I do miss him.

And what’s scary about all three of those things?

I’m having to give up a little bit of control and rely on others to help me achieve those goals. But something I have learned over the past few months is that letting someone in, trusting them, and letting them take the wheel from time to time isn’t always a bad thing.
