well so here's the deal with me. i'm not going back to oregon because my father didn't want to pay for my tuition anymore. i'm so glad he gave me like 2 weeks notice so that my life wasn't frazzled and hectic as a result...ahem. as of right now half of what i own is boxes in a storage unit in austin, tx and the other half is boxes in the back of a 1979 vw hippie van in portland. i have a small duffel bag with me in arlington and i'm staying with my sister until i can find a job and a place to live. the plan is to get an apartment with samantha and find a boring ass receptionist job that pays 9+ an hour and work full time. in my down time, i plan to further look into my education options, read tons and tons of books and drink myself silly. i'll be taking frequent trips to austin to see lauren/favian/my mother. my mother's friend in oregon is shipping my boxes to arlington (my sister and i couldn't do it while we were there because it snowed and said vw van slid down the hill...i also had to push it out of a ditch but that's another story for another time). also, due to the aforementioned snow, i couldn't do all of the academia shit i needed to because the college was closed. i'm having the forms faxed to me. my sister and i are also going to start selling her art. she wants me to sell them because she thinks i'm a good salesperson. and i know how to bullshit. her art doesn't need any bullshitting, mind you, it's just the typical business-like bullshit that i'm good at i suppose. i'm also her biggest fan.
when i'm all moved in, i'll post my address. please send me a happy card so that i don't just get apartment bills and phony credit card offers in my mail box.
whew. how's everyone else doing?
oh, by the way, if i haven't returned your calls/called you in awhile, it was because all of this was taking place. my home/joblessness is pretty much the only thing on my mind right now but i still love you!
