As with every college town, one expects an exodus every so often, you know every 4 years or so. However, our group of friends has pretty much stuck around after their graduations to pursue masters, doctorates, or fleeting careers as baristas. Hell, Gainesville is cheap to live in and a great time at that.

However, this year has marked the biggest Exodus that the Morningbell family has endured. In fact, I"d say that most of our friends are leaving this year. The whole Oh No crew is leaving or gone. Swayze is a footnote in the Gainesville music archive (which makes me really sad).

It's really kinda scary. I don't know how to feel about it. I feel that for now, the core 3 of us have found how to live in town and be satisfied, but now with everyone leaving, I don't know what the next year will bring.

Jake is leaving in June too, by the way. We will miss him very much.

As long as the 3 of us are still together, you can count on Morningbell shows. But it's really starting to get a little weird.
