The calm before the storm
So, things right now are pretty dull, and I'm ok with that. I've only got one more week to enjoy this blissful laziness before EVERYTHING starts. I start work, I move in my new apartment, Bill comes to live in L.A. (!), I leave Bill to go to Florida for two weeks of training while he's stuck alone in my apartment here in L.A. It's funny how that's going to happen, but I'm ok with it. I've been spending a lot of time frustrated about little things that aren't going exactly how I want them to--like my driver's license taking FOREVER to get here and me not being able to get car insurance as a result. Also, my landlord pushing my moving in date further and further back. So here's how that's going to go (hopefully): I pack up and move in on Friday and Saturday Aug. 19-20, then I leave for Florida Sunday night. I'm trying to be as LAZY as possible this weekend and next week because I don't know when I'm going to be able to do that again. I've recently become addicted to watching Felicity. I forgot how much I used to like that show. I feel like I can relate to her college experience;coming from California and deciding to go to school in New York. It's still hard to grasp the fact that I've graduated...I'm not going back to Ithaca in two weeks. That's so hard for me to deal with right now. Whenever I think about it I take a deep breath and try to think about all of the excitement life brings after college: career, love, marriage, family. I miss the life I had in Ithaca, and I'll never get that back and I think that's the hardest part. The scariness of being alone in a new place and finding comfort and love along the way. I don't feel the excitement here at all...but maybe that's because nothing has started yet. It's this summer/purgatory that's driving me crazy. I can't wait till it's over. I'm counting down the days.
