on hiatus

Bad news for my future employers: I decided that I really like staying home all day.
Bad news for the future husband: I decided that I really don't like doing laundry and housework all day.
Good news for me: I rule at watching movies on the couch all day.

Ha ha. It's not all that bad, I swear. I'm only semi-doing nothing. In reality I am recuperating before school starts in 2 weeks so that I don't completely rip my hair out the first week back (hopefully). Next week I have a workshop to go to for work, and today I even went to the bank (I was $5 away from my rent check bouncing when it goes through any day now). And despite being home all day, I'm actually eating less and working out more. And watching awesome movies.

Seth is at work alllll day, like 10 hours. I think both of our systems are in shock from him going from 0% work to 150% work every day. He's gone 10 hours a day and I never leave the house. It's bizarro.

Things have been interesting since the move and the new job...we've done a total 180 I think. I think I've also had to come to terms with how much things are changing...and how much they had been changing without my noticing them. It's weird not being in college, and at the same time not being a grown-up. To be honest, neither sounds appealing right now. I think honestly my friends are in the same in-between phase, but in different gradients. I'm definitely more on the lower end of that spectrum.

Needless to say, this makes our relationship even more complicated...we're both changing individually and our relationship is changing as well. I feel like for the first time ever I have NO idea what to do, or what I'm supposed to do, or how I'm supposed to feel. For now I'm just dealing with things day to day, and we deal with issues as they come up..

whatev. This isn't supposed to be a sad entry, and things really are good, for the most part. We're doing the broke, early adulthood phase, and I knew this day would come. I'm just glad to have someone to share it with.

1. I want to see pictures of the new apartment!
2. I keep forgetting you're on a break. Now that it's in my head, I'm going to call you when I get off work. I always worry that I'm going to interrupt you in class, as if you would be upset that I called.
3. Pseudo-adulthood is weird.

1. Pics soon I swear!! Right now the place is in shambles because I can count the pieces of furniture we own on one hand...so everything is in piles on the floor.
2. I'm officially on break til the 24th. And now that seth is at work I have about 20 hours of daylight to fill. call me, duh.
3. I decided that I hate it. It's like puberty but worse.

The only way this is worse than puberty is that now we have the faculties to examine and over-analyze ourselves and our choices, rather than simply wondering why the world was picking on us in puberty. Now it's kind of our own faults, huh?

Yes girl! Exactly. At least the first time around we had no clue what we were in for.
