Most of this is just edited copy/pasting from an email to Mom.
I'm not really in Michigan a lot right now.
Kristen took me to a concert in Toledo three weeks ago, and we spent the night in a nearby hotel.
I spent pretty much this entire past week with Kristen, visiting her boyfriend Andrew and his roommate Erik in Ohio. We also spent some time hanging out with the Living Dead. (they're apparently going to be going on tour soonish too. I got to walk Erik's dog, Daisy. I'd not walked a dog since Charlie. It was kind of exciting, especially considering there rlly wasn't much else to do in town.
When I came back, I found out that something terrible happened to Jamie. Her Mother and I decided that she probably needs someone with her right now. The two of us will be leaving for New Jersey probably tomorrow and staying for an unknown length of time. We'll be bringing Cappy the dog.
I do feel bad right now though, because Erin's wedding shower is on June 3rd, and not only am I not able to afford a gift for her, I am now uncertain I'll even be in the state to be there.
I feel all busy like lately. Its crazy. I'm loving it all though.
I think I may want to look into some form of employment that allows me to travel. I'm not really sure what yet. Is there anything I'd be able to do without having a degree? Flight Stewardess or something? Hey, Drew has been giving me driving lessons. Or at least, he gave me a lesson, I've not been around for him to continue.
Mom says I'm like the 'hit and run' housekeeper. I guess I just find it easier to take care of things when nobody is around. I was like that when still living at home as well, when I could get more done because nobody was in the way.

The past few days have been kind of surreal.
I know I didn't handle it the best of ways, but Sunday I moved in with Nicole. I figure, I've known her for half my life, and view her like a sister. This shouldn't be too horrible.
Most of my stuff is still in boxes. I'm not sure quite why, but I don't feel ready to unpack it all yet. Maybe next week.
Nicole's kitten, Murry also shares my new room. Hes very exciteable, hyper. Its kind of cute. I had him playing with my slinky a bit yesterday. (I swear, I'm drowning in unexpected cat toys.)
I left my bed frame at home, and am finding I prefer sleeping with my matress on the floor. I don't know if I want to bring it with me, and Matt doesn't object to not having to load it into his car.
I'm still not adjusted to the new living space, and get kind of nervous leaving the top floor, but I really don't mind being room-next-door with Nicole at all.
Plus, I should get to see more of certain people now.
I hope the family can forgive me for all this, and are adjusting well. Amanda should even get her own room soon, which will be great.

Last night, Oliver was begging me for my hot cereal (Cream of Wheat), so I decided to let him lick some off my finger.
Damned cat tried to bite my hand off.
Then he expected I was going to let him eat of of my bowl.
I think I'll not eat around Oliver anymore.

Yesterday was Grace&Jeff's wedding.
I just felt like adding this in here, although I forgot what else I was going to put with it.

Sometimes this sadness hits. And I know that you're right mom. I've got to get out of here. Not just this house, but This neighborhood. Ann Arbor. Michigan.
I know where I want to go. I even know that if I find employment, I can afford it on my own.
But I'm scared.

Yeah Yeah, so I don't update this journal much. Right now, I don't see too much of a point.
On the other hand, Today, I cleaned the bathtub.

I went out with Nicole and Natalie yesterday. It was a much needed break for all of us. Besides, Nat is leaving the state for a while. She is visiting her sister in Oregon.
Its so weird trying to update this journal. I already have an online journal, and I don't want to repeat the same damned stuff.
I've been practicing with my new camera a lot lately. I am hoping to come up with some type of art eventually. I just haven't been doing anything creative as of late, and it should give me somethign to do until I can clean iup my room and get out the sketch pad. In all honesty, I want to work with models again, but I feel uncomfortable asking, and when I just draw people that are there someone always has to pose, or stand over my shoulder, or come over and ask what I'm doing, or make weird comments. Its annoying. And its the same thing with that camera. I think that is why I've been using plants, cats, and myself as my models with the camera. No annoying people. I tried using Amanda, but after a time she got obnoxious. I scrapped almost everything from that shoot.

I decided to go out and play with my new camera today. I wanted some pictures of Ypsi, and I needed to get out of the house. I haven't been feeling really well lately.
I wound up at some new coffee house. It was decent but quiet. I doubt they get much revenue. I headed over to the eKlectic and picked up a couple books. I'd bought one there by this one author, and I wanted to see if they had more by her. I was in luck.
My sunscreen apparently did not do its job, because I have the worse burn I've had since I was a kid.

A first entry.
I had my Avon party last night. It was really nice. I got tobe around some of my closest friends, and I even made at least $30 in sales (Nicole wants to look over stuff, because there are a lot of things she wants, and doesn't want to blow her budget).
It did kind of upset me that although I'd informed her, Mom didn't even know I'd left, or where I was.
