Starting Over. Again
This blog is probably overdue for an update....so here goes.
I'm finally in Austin. Home, sweet home.
It feels great to be settling into my own room again. It's MINE. No one else's. I don't have to share it with anyone else, and I don't have to worry about being in someone's way. There's no TV on unless I want it on. The only music played is what I want to hear. I have my privacy again.
Call me selfish if you want, but I am very happy to have space that belongs to no one else but me again. Six weeks is way. too. long. to live out of a suitcase.
The move was relatively painless, actually...considering I've been working on it for a few weeks now. A carload here, a carload there, then one major truckload to get just about everything else up here. I came up with my final load on Saturday, and I've since been spending my time off and on unpacking. I get a little more done with each day, but it's obvious I'm slowing down. I'm running out of steam to continue unpacking...which means a lot of things are staying in boxes.
Like my art supplies.
I'm just making sure I can read my labels, and then sliding them onto one of the shelves in my closet. I don't like doing that, but it helps with storage, anyway. I'm really down to two major boxes, and some miscellaneous items/boxes/bags scattered about my room.
I even already have some of my trinkets out, and some things on the wall. I'm doing everything I can to make myself comfortable in my room. I spend a lot of time in here.
As for things aside from the actual moving process? Well....I'm still adjusting.
It's not like I'm not used to having roommates, this is just different, I guess. My roommates are married, plus there are two cats. So overall, I'm trying to get used to it. I have a feeling it might be awkward for a little longer, but I know that eventually, things will be normal. M has been great, though. It's nice to have someone to chat with from time to time during the day. I need to work on my RL interaction skills, though! I'm so used to typing everything I want to say out, that actually conversing on the same kinds of topics we do online is still weird for me!
But all things in time. :)
So the move went okay, and I'm adjusting to my new home all right....the only thing left on the menu is to find a job. Right now, I'll settle with anything that pays....but I would really love to find something that I want to do, not something I have to do, because there are bills to be paid.
But I guess all the pieces of my life can't fall into place at once, right? There has to be something to work for.
M and I are back to plotting again, too...this time something a little different, and perhaps a little more doable. I look forward to working on it some more. ^_^
I guess that's all for now. I wish I had some spiffy links, or some nice pictures, but I don't. Maybe one of these days I'll turn this into a "proper blog"....until then, you have to settle for journaling. ;)
