So, my credits to U of I transferred well. I even gained a few. As I had expected. School sucks this semester, but I've been making friends, which is both unexpected and a bit late in happening. The whole process of moving/preparing to move has turned into some weird obsessive project for my mother and grandmother. They went thrift store shopping out of boredom the other day and bought me a dining room table. I found out today. My grandmother's hoarded a bunch of her mother's dishtowels and pot-holders and is giving them to me, as well as pans and a bunch of shit I really don't need. Won't need. I just want the rice cooker and some forks.
Mat is wonderful. Things with Mat are wonderful. I find it odd that I can actually trust someone. And not even against my better judgement. I am being treated so well by him, at first it made me really uncomfortable, because to be honest, no one's ever done some of the things he's done for me. And I thought it would wear off, as newness wears off, but it hasn't. The only thing about this whole thing that bums me out is the way PJ has been acting out about it. Every time we hang out, and especially if we're drinking, he finds new and interesting ways of making me feel bad. And I'm not sure if he's doing it out of jealousy, or he just says what's on his mind without filtering it or thinking first, but it sucks. I don't feel as close to him as I used to. I don't feel like he's as sensetive as I used to think he was. And I guess that's an error on my part, but it is still a let-down.
Things at the store are going well! I am leaving at the end of December, when my parking pass is expired. I think they'll miss me, but I also think they'll be excited to have someone trained to do what they want the way they want it. The grand opening's next month, and i talked them into letting Smitty play. Should be neat. I've started being able to read recreationally again, now that school's underway. Mike gave me a crapload of new used books, and I've been buying probably too many. I'm finally into Steve Martin's memoir, which I love so far. I'm working every day this week so I can go to Moscow this weekend. It isn't hard, but it is exhausting, because I don't just sit at a counter and read/surf myspace anymore.
PS its awesome movie month on tcm!
that's really it for now.
