I'm done being a secret

Sep 25, 2007 14:27

The Weakerthans concert is on Saturday and I'm thrilled. James won't be there, and that is making me really sad. I'm odd one out on our family date. I'll be a third wheel to everyone else, it'll be fine.

I lie a lot. I mean really. To most people. In fact all but two. Just thought I'd throw that out there. Putting things into words makes it easier. More real.

I've been thinking a lot about moving out. And it gets more and more real every day. It is totally possible. The more I think about it the more I definitely want to live by myself for a while. I know it'll be hard, and scary, and money will be tight, but I can do it. I can and I will. For a while at least.

I'm going to buy a guitar.

And get tattooed.

And move out.

All before Valentines Day. I know that sounds far away, but it really is not. I'm very excited. I'm pretty settled in it too. Post camp has been very good for me this year, I feel confident that I can do anything I want to. Very sure of myself. Very much ready for life. I'm also bleeding, and I think that has a lot to do with it. I know what I want. I'm ready for it.

Anyone who's lived totally alone before have any advice? Helpful hints?
