Saying Goodbye 03 August 2005
 
Well, my month of being a lady of leisure is at an end. I was supposed to start packing this week, but have decided to take one last week and do it next week, and move next weekend.

I find myself getting overly sentimental about my apartment now that it is time to leave, and find myself spontaneously crying. I love this place. It's small, but it's mine. Everything about it is me, and I got it all tidied up so it looks as perfect as it could ever look. I have flowers all over the deck, and a big fluffy fern in the living room. I'm sad to leave this place, I've lived here for almost 3 years and really love it. Allison says it's important to grieve (she was sad about leaving her last house), so I'm trying to get it out of my system now before I have to pack.

I also find myself getting sad saying goodbye to the people around here. Last week was Beaker's last appointment with Dr. Berry and saying goodbye to the nice people at the Plaistow Animal Medical Center was hard. It sounds silly, but it's sad saying goodbye to the people at my local Shaw's that I have been making small talk with for the last 5 years, or the nice guy who works at the convenience store.

Really when it all comes down to it, I am just a sap.

But onwards and upwards. I'm just having a tough time with all the changes all at once.

In other news, my fall class schedule totally sucks, but I am able to change it. Problem is, the woman who can do that is on vacation. After pulling teeth I got her office to give me the student access code for their website so I can make the change myself. I typed the code into my computer, but then my landlord's son decided to trip the circuit breaker for the pool filter (which is on my circuit thingie) and HIT ALL THE BUTTONS instead of just the one labeled "pool". Presto - my computer was shut off and I lost the access code. ARGH!

More soon.
