home sweet home

some people hate leaving when their vacations come to an end, and then like 2% of the population (including myself) can't wait to get home after a week has passed.

i'm tired and all i could think about the past two days was how badly i wanted to sleep in my own bed in my quiet apartment, alone! normally i whine about how i hate being alone all the time, but seriously, i think i like being alone more than having constant contact with the same people.

don't get me wrong! i had a great vacation. i love the city. i love the sounds and the smells and the sights. i love the traffic, i love riding the trains, i love the people hurrying down the sidewalks. but i only got to spend 4 days in the city! the rest of the time was spent either in a car (32 hours total plus the 4 hrs round trip it took to catch the train each time we went to the city) or in the mountains (3 days). mountains are pretty for like 30 minutes to me. take some pictures, watch the sun set, leave.

so i got home at like 2 this afternoon and i've done all of the chores i needed to do so tomorrow i can stay in bed and watch tv all day. i know that's incredibly lazy, but i want one day of relaxation before i have to go back to work!

and i miss the city. i want to go back. my mom said i should find a job and just move there. it costs money to move though and as everyone knows, i am living below the poverty line now! i'm thinking about it though. i can't tell if i'm brave enough to just pack up and move to some city where i know absolutely no one. not much keeping me here though so who knows. i've got until january before my lease is up again.

T minus 11 weeks until i go on another trip....not to the city, but to Fayetteville, NC to visit mah gurrrl and her moose.
