With the shelter I provide, surely we could live forever.

I'm still suffering a little from culture shock. It's always warm here and I continuously forget about the sales tax. I suppose it's not actually warm, but it was -50 when I left Fairbanks. It also keeps snowing here, and then it's gone the next day. The grass is green and the trees are barren. It's driving me a little bonkers.

At least I have Laura. She gets all my inside jokes and we still gossip about my Alaskans.

I miss Jamie. Is that weird? I don't know when we got close. I remember hating on him when we first met. I think the first words I ever said to him were, "I hate your pants." I keep thinking about him. I'm kind of glad my phone's currently not working. I've been drunk a few times and probably would have drunk dialed him. I'm super excited he's gonna be rolling through town in a couple months. He'll have Richmond in tow with him which will be a little awkward. That was one of my one night stands that never should've happened.

Speaking of one night stands, I've already managed to have one since I've been here. His name was Justin. Talk about awkward mornings! He thought my name was Amber and that I was British. Not sure where Amber came from, but the British makes sense. I was in the middle of a Misfits marathon and I might've picked up an accent. I've been watching a lot of Torchwood as well. So Cardiff has been haunting my dreams. It's a little bizarre. Anyways, I've sworn off bars and hard liquor since.

I'm going to school at the beginning of next month. I always thought I'd go to school for engineering, I've always been interested in power plants and the like. On a whim I registered for hair school. Even the admissions director was surprised. I apparently have the highest GED transcript scores that she's ever seen. All that potential is wasted on this school. I swear a monkey could pass their placement exam. It's okay though, I love hair. I just never really thought about it before. It's going to throw me into all sorts of debt, but it'll be worth it I think.

I really need to find a part time job. I can't wait to be busy all the time.
