Stream of Consciousness Blogging #2
San Diego Comic-Con was fun like always. I'm looking forward to going again next year! Pricey, but worth it to me. I'm going to have to really work hard and save up if I want to go to both SDCC and Anthrocon next year. They're essentially back to back.
The Monday after I got back (last Monday) Sam and I did our grocery shopping and officially moved out of my parents' house. It feels very good so far. I have this sense of responsibility and ownership (rentership?) that I didn't have before. It hasn't changed our relationship for the worse at all. Sam and I had already been living together in my folks' place for a bit over a year, so we're more than familiar with each other's quirks. It's very nice to wake up in bed every morning next to him. I love our relationship. It's something I never dreamed of having growing up. I always thought of myself as less-than-pretty, so it feels good to have someone who loves and appreciate me the way Sam does. Never thought I'd find that this early in life.
Already having been pretty independent before I moved out, I feel that not much adjustment has been needed. There are still lots of things I need to buy for this place, but it's fairly homey right now. Well, considering we've only been here for a week and a half. I still go back to my parents' house a couple days a week to work on sewing projects in the basement. Sam helps out, too.
Really planning for the future. I received a $500 pain and suffering settlement check in regards to last year's car accident. I wasn't hurt but I did miss a couple days of work and had to go to my spine doctor to make sure I was okay. Most of that check went to savings. I want to put half of the Anthrocon art show check I should be getting next week into savings. I need to save for a vehicle of my own, and need to save up to raise capital for my next venture. Excited about that.
This thing is getting a little tl;dr, so I'm going to stop thinking and go to bed now.
