It's weird realizing I'll have to drive everywhere. That hasn't been true for me since high school.
But I understand. You gave up everything you had to find me. And you found me broken. It's hard for you.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Our wings are not tired.
I didn't get my driver's license until I moved to Norfolk VA at 21. I got a new job and they told me part of my job was driving to the bank and post office. When I told them I didn't have a license they looked at me like I was from outer space. They assigned another employee as my licensed driver and taught me to drive.

Honestly, that was the least of the culture shock that hit me moving to the South.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.
Hooray, Tommyrot!
It's weird realizing I'll have to drive everywhere.
Yes. Yes you will.

The status is NOT quo.
People, the universe should make this house thing happen so I can stop annoying everyone with my obsessing over it.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Wow, Tom! Good luck settling in and everything.

oh joy! Oh Rapture ! I have a brain!
Welcome to your new home, Tommyrot.
Matt and I are talking about a camper van. Afull Rv is too much, but the flexibility of campervan has appeal ( I do not want a home away from home)
In other news I am having chicken nuggets for dinner. I wanted fried chicken , but I didn't want to drive anywhere. so I went to the corner store and found nuggets. This is a grown up dinner because it includes wine and roasted cauliflower

Good luck with the new apartment and job, Tom!
I have laundry in the washer. I've scheduled a Lyft for 5am tomorrow. I just need to make dinner, clean out the refrigerator, take out the compost, run the dishwasher, and pack my suitcase. Totally doable, as long as I don't get back into bed.
