I moved out of Southwest last Thursday. I am now paying $75 a week to live with my friend Claire at Dominion Arms in Arlington, Virginia. The rent is a bit less then half of what she pays for her studio. I've applied for an apartment at this place called Kirkwood in Hyattsville, Maryland. The rent is $1012/month for a two bedroom within walking distance of the West Hyattsville Metro Station on the Green Line. I hope I get it.
I am still working at both Lambda Rising and Books-A-Million...14 hours a day...everyday. Well, I usually have off on Tuesdays and Thursdays. Still, it's quite exhausting. I don't think I would mind it so much if I felt that all the work served a purpose other than paying rent and buying food. It's not like I can work my way up the Lambda or BAM ladder. Though, even if I could, I wouldn't want to.
My week has been uneventful. Although, I did have a lovely "date" with Claire on Saturday (?). We went to a restaurant in Georgetown and took a walk along the Potomac and had a great time! Claire is pretty rockin!
I'm a bit down at the moment. There are myriad reasons. I feel so behind in my live right now. I'm bit envious of my friends who seem to be doing so well. I'm tired. I HATE the weather. I feel a bit lonely. I just want a hug and acceptance to college with a full scholarship. Is that so much?
