"I am so bored. Cory has been asleep while I've watched two episodes of Supernanny and gone through half a box of Kleenex - the big box. Debating buying Farmville money with real money." - text to Jessica 3 min. ago
I have to say I can't ever remember catching things like head colds before I turned 21. It's some vast right-wing conspiracy that my nose is even capable of producing this much congestion.
On the plus side I've really dived right into the deep end of cohabitation. BF surprised me last week by flying in unexpectedly from England. Luckily I got an unintentional heads up from his mom about 6 hours before so I had time to make myself decent before he knocked on my door.
It was the best surprise.
I think though, he'd failed to realize that this now meant we are effectively living together, as I will be flying back with him January 12th. So great surprise but also a little bit of a "hey welcome to the land of living together!"
Then, not even three days into it, I caught a cold so although we had quite a bit of time to get used to one another, it was also with the unfortunate side effect that I was a sniffly, sick mess.
He's done me well though, really, no complaints. And I like this new set up we've got. It's like hanging out with my best friend all the time except we haven't really done this before, so it's kind of surreal and I feel like there should be more involved except all we do is lay around and watch TV and it's nice. It's simple. It's not dramatic or high maintenance. He cooks for me. I help clean up. We talk about places we want to see in Europe and his work and me going to school and buying a sailboat.
I guess in some ways I just assumed love should be more complicated, and it's not that I'm disappointed, just a little surprised, like, "oh so this is what it's like..." and I don't care how many times you think you know what you're getting yourself into, good or bad, more often than not you just don't.

Two and a 1/2 hours of Good Times does not make up for a full 24 hours of recovery. Drinking can be the pits.

Sometimes I wish it were acceptable to walk around naked, not because I'm a nudist or anything, it's just that sometimes getting dressed is such a hassle.

It was a $95 dollar peace (piece) of mind all because Charles was rolling around the place like he was in desperate need of an eye patch, and I guess maybe I needed something to really worry about but I think in hindsight it wasn't worth the trouble. Except maybe I also just needed out of the house. And lately I wonder why I feel so old and why everything feels a little out of place and yet everyone keeps telling me I'm glowing, that I look so happy, but I don't see it. I see a tentatively scheduled to-do list and plans so great there's nothing to say we're not leaving a fair amount of time for unnecessary over-analyzation.
It feels like the last day of a summer I've wasted, but it's not enough to get wasted or reckless because I always end up puking the morning after. An all or nothing approach to most things, I keep asking questions with no answers in search of a balance that might not offer up enough definition to satisfy my anxieties. When I was younger I thought I knew everything, and at least in that there was respite. But now I know I know so little and it's unnerving.
Earlier today I read a story about parking in New York City and it made me wonder a little how people can live on top of one another like that and not go crazy and then I couldn't help but think that maybe, just maybe, I don't go out enough. Instead I sit on my porch in a one-piece jumper and my house shoes, eating ice cream out of the carton while everyone else drinks rum and coke and smokes cigarettes. I like to think of it as slowly growing backwards.

Before photo blogs and not-writing-about-your-emotions blogs, there was LiveJournal culture, where people felt free to talk about all the mundane things that happened in their teenage years without fear that their future employer might one day see it.
Miss it!

Mostly it's been excessive amounts of su doku playing, best friend loving, skipping out on the crowded bars for all the good parts after-party-style. I've got nothing but big plans and a big bright future ahead of me.

And that's what you get posting MySpace bulletins when drunk.
Things are swell. Just swell.
