Back at school, for good. Ish.
Ashley just left for home, and I opened up my playlist for the first time (except for the moment last night that I opened it to play half of a Ben Folds song for Ashley) and "That I Would Be Good" is playing. I'm alone in the apartment - Matt's at work, etc. - and Emily and Tim just IMed me, and I got my second syllabus in email this morning. For some reason, those things actually make me feel better about being back. All of this is hugely reminiscent of last spring, and I feel better knowing I've been here before, and I loved it. I just forget sometimes..
Like, this morning - after Matt left for work, I couldn't really sleep, and I just got really stressed thinking of all the things I had to do, and realizing Ashley had to leave, etc. So I made a list of things I want to do today, and prayed for like an hour, and felt immeasurably more calm.
Yesterday was a really awesome day. I was a little stressed then too for some reason, but it was uninterrupted hanging out time with Ashley. We slept in, and hung around, and went to Best Buy and Taco Bell with Matt.. watched Clarissa, drove around forever looking for Goodwill but couldn't find it, took naps (or, I did), went to see Dashboard (!!!), walked home and got cherry coke, Ashley made mac and cheese and we played Dr. Mario (!!! again).. etc. Good times. I miss her already. She (you) should come visit again.
Now I'm listening to Cake. Which I guess means I am for sure in East Lansing.
