so we've been here for about 14 days and it's been slow. and lazy. sometimes boring. and gloomy. dustin doesn't have a job yet and hasn't been in a rush to find one (yet). we got our own internet yesterday after about a week of being webless. we've been going outside daily to scout out our new town. i've done more in this town in 2 weeks than when i lived here for a year. we've ridden bikes all around, walked all around, and only driven occasionally to get groceries. it's nice not driving all the time. actually, i really don't like driving like i used to. i don't want to go home because i dread the drive. we're going home next weekend and i hope dustin drives.

we've made too many trips to best buy to get shit we need for the house. we've been to trader joe's and costco a lot because all we do is eat. what else do you do when you're home all day, every day? we've only gone out to eat twice for breakfast (once was the day after we moved in because we had no food and were starving) so we've been good at making food at home.

not much is going on. we really like our place. it's 2 floors, kinda like a townhouse but there's no door at the top of the stairs for the bedroom, it's just open. we're in the front and at the end of the building so we get the most light. the sun actually wakes me up every morning at about 7 but i go back to sleep until noon (or 1). we sleep a lot. i'd say about 10 hours a night. at least. there's really not a whole lot to wake up for.

so i got a red light camera ticket. it didn't state the amount of the ticket but i went online and it says it's $436 to settle and if i request traffic school it's $488 plus the cost of traffic school. it's ridiculous!!! i am a little freaked out by this because 1) i have no money and no source of income, 2) i have to go to court in san diego before july 5th (one reason why we're going home next weekend), and 3) i don't know what the heck i should do about this!! i've been reading stuff online about it and i'm still not sure what to do. i want to plead guilty and ask for a reduction but what if they don't give it to me. and should i go to traffic school? that would cost me an extra $100. ugh...

i have more to write but dustin wants to go fishing now before the sun sets. i'm gonna sit there and read.
