warning! bitchfest 2010

so much is going on in my world right now. where do i start? i'll be moving out of my apartment and into my grandma's house in september. i have to get rid of pretty much everything in my apartment, narrow the necessities down as far as possible, and find a home for my cat. as far as my belongings go, i have binged, collecting things for my apartment that i believed i needed, and now comes the purge. i have done this binging and purging before, several times. the most extreme was the last time i left ohio and came here, i kept very little clothing, my books, cameras, and two crates of things from childhood, i.e. old journals, notebooks,etc. this time around i have more that i do not want to let go of, and i am battling because i know that i should not be connected to material things, but i also know that when i get another apartment it will be time to binge again, and i really just don't want to spend that much money on stuff that i have now.
as for the cat, i don't want to find a permanent home for him because once i am settled again, i will want him with me, but that could be a year or more. i am hoping my aunt will take him, but i have to be completely honest with her about his raptor-like personality.

i wish i could move out now, so i can stop worrying about money so much, but the problem is my car. i cannot get it fixed until i get my student loans, which won't be until early september. this also means that i will be riding my bike in the august heat, to school and back, which i am not looking forward to. at least i live close enough to work now that i can walk.

my phone is shit. it keeps turning off while i am on it, or texting someone, or have just finished texting someone, which is convenient because then i don't know that the message didn't send and my ride ends up waiting for me because they didn't get the message saying, "give me 5 more min." and probably needless to say, i don't have the money for a new phone.

on the 11th i am getting my wisdom teeth removed, a good thing, but very scary, and after that i need to have them cleaned, and start having my 10, yes, 10! cavities filled. my mouth is expensive, and it's all my fault. floss, people! luckily the place i am going does financing, but once it's all done i'll be paying a million dollars a month just to keep my teeth from rotting out of my face, which i suppose is worth it.

the thing that really gets to me about all this is that there is nothing i can do right now, about any of it. i am stuck in this purgatory where i know i shouldn't be worrying because i know there is nothing i can do right now, but i can't stop thinking and thinking about it all. i am in my head way too much. i know that i am doing what i am supposed to be doing, but it doesn't feel like enough, or like anything, really. so here i am, writing a blog to bitch about it, which weirdly feels really good to put it all down, just say it like it is. maybe this will help me stop dwelling on it. i doubt it though.

i am so tired of sitting at home, working, and going to denny's. my days are this endless cycle. my days off consist of my mom driving me around to run errands that i can't do myself without a car, and are not at all relaxing.

to top it all off i have no coffee in my house, and if you know me at all, you will know that this is detrimental to my morning ritual, and my ability to be a functioning human being throughout the day.

if you have actually read this through to the end, i am sorry. this was simply an exercise in purging thoughts, rather than belongings.

  1. Take a deep breath, do some Yoga, read your books. It is what it is, and when you don't remember that, it's okay. Because maybe, in that moment, you don't need to.

    I'm here.
