Wednesday is finally here. That means the week is halfway over and that tonight is my turn to make dinner for Lindsey and me. We are having spaghetti and meatballs. Yum! I let her pick from boiled dinner, scrambled hamburger and gravy, and spaghetti and meatballs. Obviously you know what she picked. I always look forward to Wednesdays. They are fun, they break up the week and they give me a chance to have a real good meal. I have been thinking about going to the fitness center and weighing myself. The scale in the bathroom has been saying for weeks that I weigh around 149 now which is roughly 11 pounds lighter than over the summer where I was up around 160. The last two times I weighed myself it has said I weigh 151 and 154. Not very reliable. I have been eating more junk recently but not enough to make me gain that much. I am 1 week from my period so it could be water weight but I doubt it. I am rather curious though to see if I have lost weight cause my boss has said the last few times I have seen him that I look thinner. Compliment or honesty?
I can't wait for Thanksgiving. Garret told me that my roommate only has one thing to turn in that week and that she can email. That means that she could leave Thursday night or Friday morning(she has no classes Friday)and be gone all weekend and then the entire week of Thanksgiving. I'm trying really hard not to get my hopes up but obviously that is what I am hoping for. That much time in the apartment alone with Garret sounds pretty freaking amazing to me. I am in the ed center and I guess she must have a class here cause I just saw her leave. I wonder how it makes her feel to know that I would rather hang out in the ed center for an hour than risk running into her at the apartment. I wonder if she even knows that is what I am doing.
As of yesterday I have all of my homework up till Thursday done. I tried to get the Friday stuff done but I got distracted(Garret, I love you). So maybe I can get it done tonight so I can get started on next weeks stuff since I am actually scheduled to work during the week next week. It feels really good to be so far ahead. It makes me feel like I have time to relax and have fun for a change. Maybe I even have time to pick up another hobby. A game I can play when I am bored or a book to read for my own enjoyment. I haven't read a book or fun since this summer. As much reading as I have been doing has steered me away from doing more reading, even for pleasure but maybe I should. Or maybe I could do more writing. I have often wanted to start a story. I haven't worked on a story for a long time. I have had a hard enough time with poetry that prose seemed particularly daunting. Especially since poetry is usually easier for me to write. Something about the format that makes it easy for me to get down on paper what is going on in my head and heart at that moment. My head and heart are just too confused.

Have you read the last chapter of Dark Blood I sent you? I started the next one yesterday but I got distracted with other things on the computer (facebook mainly).
I'm glad you have someone you can hang out with outside of your apartment. Lindsey sounds like she keeps you as sane as possible. I wish I could be there for you more. It would have been so much easier if I had moved in with you and Garret instead of her don't you think :-p
Well I have lots to do and only 45 minutes to do it in. I will talk to you soon. Love you!!!
I haven't read the chapter you just sent me. I have been doing homework like crazy and in order to stay ahead. I got a good lead on homework and have been working to keep it. But tonight I am taking a night off from it because I found out I will be done with my optional class next week. I feel that is cause to celebrate. So I will read it tonight and email you.
She has kept me sane. It has been nice to have a friend on campus this semester. I wish you could be around more too. I really miss you and it would certainly be easier to live with you.
Can't wait to hear from you again. Love you!
