Stuff...

Hey everybody,

Not that I'm sure anyone wants to read this, but there are some really good things about living here...

First, I'm getting to know my grandparents (which at times is hard, because I realized that I AM GRANDMA'S BOY) and I am forced to learn a new part of the country, new state, new city, and new towns.

But what I'm really happy about is the fact that I've dropped 15 lbs. since moving out here. The greatest part is I haven't done any sort of working out. I think it helps that I'm trying not to eat fast food all the time, that I eat three meals a day (usually), and one of those is usually with the grandparents (they eat very reasonable). Who knows maybe I should convince them to let me stay here until next year and go join the gym, then I could start my journey to getting the "V" cut.

Okay enough from me today....

Apartment HUNTING!!!

So I have now joined all the other people in big cities in the very hard task of finding a place to hang my hat. Granted I only looked at one place, but if this is the kind of stuff I have to look towards I think I will enjoy moving farther away and commuting each day.

The girl who answered the door was a cute petite brunnette, about my height, and a nose ring. My first thought was, "Shane would LOVE this girl!" She took me around the apartment(really a house, that had been seperated) and showed me the two rooms that are available. She also showed me the basement and the attic (trying to sell me on amble storage space). Then I met her roommate Andrew, both seemed excited about the fact that they would be able to see free movies if I lived there. Everyone is always looking for free movies from us movie theatre workers (can I get an AMEN?). But unfortunately I was unimpressed overall, there just wasn't a clean feeling thru most of the house(the basement smelled infected with mold), so I'm most likely looking elsewhere. Nice first experience to have looking for a place as far as the two renting out the rooms.

My brother is moving out here next week. He's gonna live with our uncle until his family follows him in 6 weeks. Exciting stuff, my sister-in-law has an interview at Boston's Children Hospital. Also, my girl is coming to see me in a week. I plan on taking her to Cape Cod and spend a couple of days laying on the beach and relaxing in Welfleet (it's near the end of the hook of Cape Cod).

It's really beautiful out here. I think it's weird that there are tond more trees here than in Indy or even 30 minutes out of the city. I finally know what everyone is talking about Indiana is FLAT! Now don't get me wrong, I love and miss what I think I'll consider my hometown for the rest of my life(which I never did when I lived there, see what distance will do to you), but there are tons of hills and lakes all around the place out here. If you come to visit me, you'll see what I mean.

Thanks for reading to my rant for the day. I have the next two days off so I will be catching up on sleep and doing some more apartment hunting. So until next time...

LOST...

So there I was leaving work a little early, I finished up all my work, so I decided to go to the local mall and treat myself to a little spending at Best Buy. Now my friend Dione warned me not to go out and spend money on myself to make me feel good, so I didn't. I used a reward zone certificate and what was left of my gift card from the Keystone management crew to buy a couple of CDs.

That's not where the fun started. So when I left the mall (which if you listen to Dane Cook, I was at the Galleria!!!!) I asked for directions (yes, I can ask for directions) and went the way I thought I was suppose to go...
then I was in West Boston, which meant I crossed a bridge and didn't even know it. So again I had to ask for directions. After doing an illegal u-turn (in front of a Police Officer) I found another person who directed me, correctly this time, to where I wanted to go. I really want to explore this city, but I hate doing it alone.

I have this weird seperation issue. I like having people around, hence why I spend so much time on the phone, so I get panicked if I'm by myself and get lost. Which is weird because in Indy there were times when I would drive around by myself and listen to CDs and sing along, this way I wasn't bugging anyone. It has to be the fact that I don't have any friends out here. Not that I'm doing a whole lot to help that situation. I'm trying to follow Lee's advice and not curl up in a bubble and be a recluse. I hope it'll be different when I get my own place. If I go out and start making friends with people I want to be able to drink. Out of respect for my grandparents I refuse to show up to their house drunk EVER!!!!

Well enough opening up myself...for now.

Saturday Night

So my boys back in Indy are playing Poker without me...those retarded b@$tards. Just kidding, I hope Shane schools all you fools...okay joking around again.

Anyways, I've been really bad about writing every couple of days...is this a new surprise for anyone. So work is good, it reminds alot of Castleton Arts. I think the new staff is trying to adjust to me as a manager, hopefully they will soon realize how AWESOME of a manager I can be. Just ask any of my friends.

Soon I'm going to hook up my XBox 360 (yeah I know, since I bought it I have only played a handful of times, well worth the insane amount of money) and actually play some games. I might even take Shane's advice and see if I can use this wireless connection to play online.

Well my RED SOX lost again today, but that's all right, the YANKEES lost too. They are still 1/2 game ahead of them. Keep it up boys...

So I was a little upset with the Patriots again this week. They traded away Bethel Johnson, so they could build up their defensive line. The last thing I thought we needed as a team was another d-lineman. The one thing I thought we DID need was WIDE RECEIVERS!!!! I still believe in our coaches.

As far as sports goes...my EASTSIDERS won the ISSA championship. Go team, it's your birthday...
I'm just sad that I wasn't there to play in it. You know I set up my last day in Indy to be after the championship game, then they had to move it for a couple of different things. Oh well, here's a couple of different pics I have of them:

Well that's it for now....

There were so many people there that mattered to me. I got some presents from some of them too. I got this book that a lot of people signed and left personal messages for me.

I got into Bedford yesterday and hung out with the grandparents. Then I found a Starbucks the next town over so I could get online. Then I turned on the laptop at home and had a wireless signal! Don't know where it's coming from but I don't care. So I decided I will try to write a new entry every couple of days. I know I've said this before, but I have NO friends out here and NO school to keep me busy so I should have lots of free time. Speaking of free time, I went and saw OVER THE HEDGE tonight. Good movie, I laughed out loud twice and it was just a mother, her son, and me in there. It takes a lot for me to laugh when I don't know anyone. I keep thinking of how much Justin(Rachel) and I would have laughed thru the whole film.

Speaking of films...a bunch of friends in Indy and Letha are watching THE BREAK UP tonight. This is so weird being at a house on a Thursday night with nothing to do. I am usually running the changeover at whatever theatre I'm working at. But I have Union here that run my booth and Howie (my new General Manager) is trying to ease me in to the new theatre. Now, as far as work goes...I was sent home a hour and a half early today. But the real shocker (especially if you really know me)...I was half an hour early today. Got to make a good impression.

Well that's enough for now, I'll try to write again before I go to New York on Monday. My girl is giving me her extra ticket to the RED SOX/YANKEES game on Tuesday.

So untill next time...
