There's something really comforting in the mundane. My mum sent a bit of money my way, and after using some to pay my electric bill and take David out to sushi to repay him for all his recent help (and because he's awesome and it was an excuse to hang out), I went to the grocery store last night and bought some staples. Not my recent staples--the older stuff. Things I would find at my parents' house. $18 worth of wheat bread, turkey bologna, apples, bananas, cocoa puff cereal, soy milk, avocados, and some little frozen pizzas. I made a turkey sandwich for lunch today, and it felt very nice.
Portland is feeling like home, now. Going back to MI for that week and then returning here, I can feel it. This is home.
