happy new years, everyone!
hello loves -
i hope all of you have a great (and safe) new years this evening. i miss all of you very much, and wish i could spend even a bit of the night with one or all of you kids.
updates galore:
1) I HAVE MOVED INTO MY NEW FLAT. all of my belongings are now resting in my much more spacious, crazy-looking, windows galore room. my new space is a challenging one to describe: there's a mini-loft that hangs from the ceiling via wooden beams - which is where my mattress and then some will rest. a mini spiral staircase climbs up to it. i bought a futon (for first floor sleeping when lazy) and am planning to buy a couch as well - so my room will be loungeville to the max. there are at least 8 windows, some big some small, all wonderful. i woke up to so much light today, and it was fantastic. i have a private deck (of sorts its private - i dont think anyone in the house really uses it - but oh how i will!)
2) new housemates are much friendlier than i was anticipating. and much bolder. it's definitely a change from my previous living situation - but i'm pretty excited to be meeting a new group of folks.
eric #3: tall, rei sports guy, bakes, bold as hell
ruthie: super pretty, works at music venues, teaches sewing classes, knows how to make damn fine pasta primavera
ryan: minimal insights because he's currently traveling through thailand, but that in itself speaks volumes
3) i'm realizing my job is really no good for me. i haven't worked since two fridays ago, and i'm the happiest i've been in 5 months. hello. not sure what i'm going to do about it, but something (including my attitude) needs to change pretty soon here.
4) i recognized a few days ago that i am far more in debt than i was anticipating (which compounds the problem of the job). i would like to say that the medical insurance system sucks and credit card companies employ scoundrels.
5) the phone call from festivus made my top 5 phone calls of all time, potentially the top three. i woke up smiling BIG-TIME the next day. thanks, guys.
6) i've felt much less chaotic the past few weeks, and i am hoping that this continues. i'm trying to change a lot of things about how i am living life right now; i feel like i really dropped the ball on a lot of stuff (from hobbies to how i treat friends) as soon as i started working. so anyway.
i love you kids a lot. you should all blog some, by the way. i want to read some stories already.
what's up 2007,
jen
