Well kids, I finally moved out on my own. It's definitely a different feeling. I'm enjoying myself so far but the place I'm staying at could totally use some improvements. Plus, I need to learn how to cook more because I have to buy my own food now. Fucking wonderful. First step to becoming an adult. WONDERFUL. I realized that I couldn't stay with my mom much longer or I would grow too dependent on her and that wouldn't be good for my self esteem. So I moved in with Mike and Anthony in South Hadley. Mike is pretty cool. Anthony's a dick with a drug problem. Gladly, he hasn't been home for a few days due to kidney stones. He's either been at the hospital or his mother's house. At least he let me borrow a few games for my 360. Whatever.
The weather has been a killer lately. Luckily, every time I had to go to work in that weather, I've been given a ride either by luck or by kindness. On the days I don't get rides, I walk to work. It's all uphill. No bus goes up where I live. It's a 30 minute walk from where I live to Price Rite. Gotta make my money somehow. I've also been getting some pretty decent paychecks lately. I'm quite happy about that. I guess it's all the extra hours I've been working. I'm glad working there isn't as bad as it may seem. I actually went to Target to pick up an air conditioner with Mike. I saw the employees there and it made me remember why I hated working there. I went to work the next day with a smile on my face because of that. After that, I felt light headed. Fuck me, right?
Hopefully, this will work out and be a good decision in my life. Writing this reminds me of how my mother held on to me and cried on the last day I lived at her house. I really hope I made the right choice.
