in case you're wondering... i'm still here.

yup.

can i tell you how lonely i am? well even if you don't want to hear it, i'm going to tell.

i've been putting my room back together for the past 2 days. i've been doing a damn good job at it, too. i have a sense of organization previously unknown for my room at home. not only did i dust, put pictures in frames, and rearrange some furniture, i actually put a bedskirt on my bed. no lie.

this may all seem like an accomplishment, but let me tell you how i really feel right now.

really freakin lonely.

i assumed (and you know what they say about assuming) that i would come home and people would be excited to see me. that i would start working right away. that it would take me weeks to unpack because i didn't have any downtime because i was too busy being socially productive.

well guess what.

i was wrong. really really horribly incorrect.

you know what makes it hurt even more? there's no one here to at least make it FEEL like someone actually wants me around. i briefly spoke to ben before (and i've been "briefly" speaking to him for a week now) and he was humming on the phone. i probably spent a good 20 minutes of our 30 minute conversation silently crying. when i finally told him that i was sad at home, i spoke for just a couple minutes before he interrupted and said "hey i really wanted to get to bed by midnight." alright then. you go on to bed. i'm just going to keep sitting here crying. no problems. none at all. good-night. i only just started opening up but it's ok that's fine you go on to bed and get some rest so you can have a good day tomorrow sleep well.

when all i really want to say is "please don't you slip away, too."

and to match the fact that i haven't been able to finish a single thought to another human being, i'm going to cut this short because who's going to notice anyway?
