i'm here. most things are unpacked.... it's hard with my folks still here. it's a bit hectic and cassie's friends have been over a lot. i like them - well... a few of them. but it's like... they just sit and drink and smoke and talk about getting trashed and stuff. i want away from that. what did i sign myself up for? *sigh* i hope all is well. right now it's 2am and there are 8 people here. but i mean - it's saturday night. it's called for. not a big deal. just in the back of my mind.
everything here is so different. the streetlights change so fast. and everything smells better. even the target feels weird. i love our apartment though. well... most of it. our walls are paper thin. we hear everything each of us says if we're in 2 rooms connected. i think it's ok if we're both in our bedrooms because of the split plan.
i really like one of cassie's friends, charlie. we have a lot in common and have fun talking. he's not my "type" - but i'll enjoy his company.
ate tonight at Bahama Breeze and it was fabulous. my folks took me on a shopping spree at target and got a bunch of stuff i needed for my birthday. a medicine cabinet, a microwave, a shower caddy, and some kitchen potholders and such.
i don't start my job till wednesday. so i'll have 4 days of exploring before i have to actually be somewhere.
my tongue is killing me. inflamed tastebuds have worsened, and a piece of my permanent botton retainer has been cutting into them making them worse. it sucks - you can't put a band-aid on your tongue and let it heal. it's neverending. and my hands hurt, too. my nails have been pushed back so bad that they are painful, and i have a huge papercut on one of them. gahhhhhhhhhh i hurt.
things really aren't bad. i'm just adjusting and there's a lot going on. too much to think about. i need sleep.
